Publisher's Synopsis

Childhood In The Moslem World is a book written by Samuel M. Zwemer, a Christian missionary and scholar who spent many years living and working in the Middle East. The book provides a comprehensive and detailed look at the experiences of children growing up in Islamic societies around the world. Zwemer draws on his extensive knowledge of Islamic history, culture, and religion to explore the various ways in which childhood is understood and experienced in these societies. He covers topics such as family life, education, gender roles, marriage and parenting, and the influence of religion on children's lives. Throughout the book, Zwemer emphasizes the diversity of experiences among Muslim children, highlighting the many different cultural and regional variations that exist within the Islamic world. He also examines the impact of Western colonialism and globalization on Muslim childhood, and the ways in which these forces have both disrupted and transformed traditional Islamic practices and values. Overall, Childhood In The Moslem World is a rich and informative resource for anyone interested in understanding the complexities of childhood in Islamic societies. It provides a nuanced and thoughtful analysis of the many factors that shape Muslim children's lives, and offers insights into the challenges and opportunities facing these communities in the 21st century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
