L'islam et la fin du voyage: comment l'Autre est devenu Occident

Journeying is defined here as the trajectory of encounter which a culture traces for its own adherents. The traveller marks the trail. This was so for journeying Muslims from the moment they were first carried off on the tidal wave of their ever-expanding culture. The ebb of this culture coincided with the rise of the West, of which Muslims knew little because it had had nothing to offer, because it had not even been worth the journey. This was a decisive moment. Islam turned from a world in which the travelling Muslim had always been at home, and yet had experienced unlimited encounters with peoples of many kinds, to a world in which Muslim civilization confronted the western enemy so directly that there was nothing left but itself and the West. This western world of Islamic perception was thus born from the journey's end of Muslims themselves.
