Summary

"A researcher stumbles across a manuscript and attempts to edit it, to make it into a doctoral thesis. Entitled The Journeys of 'Abdi, the manuscript is an account of one man's journeys from Morocco to the Hijaz in Saudi Arabia in search of knowledge, written in the manner of Moroccan intellectuals such as Ibn Khaldun. 'Abdi's journey turns into an examination of Arabic and Muslim society, with 'Abdi emphasising the need for Arabs to learn from Europe in order to achieve social progress. Split into two, The Journeys of 'Abdi, known as Son of Hamriya follows both 'Abdi's search for knowledge as well as the narrator's attempts to edit his manuscript"--Http://arabicfiction.org/book/117.html.
