| Abstract | Many Western historians, cultural and literary critics have viewed travel and exploration as purely western. This total exclusion of Arabo-Islamic travel has been done to demonstrate the Western sense of modernity and cultural superiority over the constructed weak "other". However, Moroccans, Arabs and Muslims in general have been curious about the lands of the Christians and managed to break the cultural and religious barriers by reaching such lands. In this paper I examine the Moroccan presence in the lands of the Christians and mainly in France through analyzing the work of Ahmad Bin Qasim Al Hajari's "Nasir al-Din ala al-Qawm al Kafirin" or (The Book of the protector of religion against the unbelievers) to dwell not only at the different instances of anger and wrath but also of love and respect towards the Christians and to demonstrate the way Arab and Muslim travelers remained different from their Christian counterparts in their discursive productions. I also question Occidentalism in Ahmad Bin Qasim Al Hajari's narrative and assert that al-Azmeh's vision to the systems of division as essentially part of human discourse is an exaggeration. So, while Westerners get fully entangled in the process of dehumanizing the Arab and Muslim "other", Muslims produced an ambivalent discourse that sometimes revealed their anger but not hate towards the Christians. (As Provided). |
