An Unbeliever Joins The Hadj: On The Age-Old Pilgrimage To Mecca, Babies Are Born, Elders Die And Families May Halt A Year To Earn Funds In Distant La
""An Unbeliever Joins The Hadj"" is a non-fiction book written by Owen Tweedy that tells the story of his journey to Mecca to join the Hadj pilgrimage. As an unbeliever, Tweedy was curious about the religious significance of this age-old tradition and wanted to experience it for himself. Along the way, he encounters a diverse cast of characters, including fellow pilgrims, locals, and officials, each with their own unique stories and perspectives. The book offers a vivid and detailed account of the physical and emotional challenges of the pilgrimage, as well as the cultural and historical significance of the Hadj. From the birth of babies to the death of elders, Tweedy witnesses the full spectrum of life on this journey. He also explores the economic and social implications of the pilgrimage, including the sacrifices families make to earn the funds to undertake it. Overall, ""An Unbeliever Joins The Hadj"" is a compelling and thought-provoking exploration of one of the world's most important religious traditions.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
