In 1896, at the age of 20, she married Nawab Muhammad Hamidullah Khan Sarbuland Jung, a prominent lawyer and the scion of a leading Muslim reformist movement. In 1909, the wealthy couple embarked on a four-month journey through the Middle East and Europe, performing the hajj in Mecca and sitting for tea with the future king and queen of England.</p><p><em>A Journey to Mecca and London</em> provides the first full English translation of Begum Sarbulands Urdu travel diary from this journey, of which only three original copies remain. Originally intended for circulation among friends and family and later published, her informal entries not only reveal the everyday practices of an Indian woman of her time, but also detail her impressions and reactions as she explored the world alongside her husband. As Begum Sarbuland encountered other women and Muslims during her travels, those encounters shaped her reassessment of her own identity as a Muslim woman. Her observations hold continued significance for readers interested in critical questions about gender, Islam, and identity. Daniel Majchrowicz has thoroughly annotated his translation and paired it with rich appendices, including a biographical sketch of Begum Sarbuland and excerpts from Hamidullah Khans own accounts of their journey.</p><p>Engagingly written and enriched with years of original research, archival work, and family interviews, <em>A Journey to Mecca and London</em> restores the nearly forgotten narrative of one of Indias first Muslim women travel writers to its rightful place in Indian and Islamic history.</p>...6917406A Journey to Mecca and London646718https://www.gandhi.com.mx/a-journey-to-mecca-and-london-9780253071712/phttps://gandhi.vtexassets.com/arquivos/ids/6832697/image.jpg?v=638742759698670000InStockMXN99999DIEbook20259780253071712_W3siaWQiOiI4OWU3N2I1Zi0xMjdiLTQzZWUtOWQzZC03YTZmNmZlYzE0NjgiLCJsaXN0UHJpY2UiOjY5OSwiZGlzY291bnQiOjcwLCJzZWxsaW5nUHJpY2UiOjYyOSwiaW5jbHVkZXNUYXgiOnRydWUsInByaWNlVHlwZSI6Ildob2xlc2FsZSIsImN1cnJlbmN5IjoiTVhOIiwiZnJvbSI6IjIwMjUtMDItMDRUMDc6MDA6MDBaIiwicmVnaW9uIjoiTVgiLCJpc1ByZW9yZGVyIjpmYWxzZX1d9780253071712_<p>Descended from Mughal nobility, Akhtar al-Nisa Begum Nawab Sarbuland Jung grew up in Hyderabad in southern India, where she lived a quiet, private, and privileged life at the heart of the states royal court.
