About this ebook

This work of fiction was written by Muhammad Marmaduke Pickthall, an English Islamic scholar noted for his 1930 English translation of the Quran, called The Meaning of the Glorious Koran. His translation of the Qur'an is one of the most widely known and used in the English-speaking world. The story of this novel begins in the reign of the Sultàn Abdul Mejìd Khan, which upon the termination of the war with Muscovy, received a multitude of faithful Georgians and Circassians who chose to cast themselves, their women and children, upon the bounty of the Padishah rather than endure the yoke of an infidel conqueror. They begged but leave to settle in some part of the Sultàn's dominions, to dwell in peace among true believers in obedience to the law of God, as transmitted to Muhammed, His Apostle. But their spokesmen had fierce eyes, and, when a little emphasis seemed called for, each clutched quite naturally at the dagger in his sash.
