In the eighteenth century, the academic scholar Ibn al-Tayyib made
a rihla (journey) from Morocco to the Hijaz, in modern day Saudi
Arabia, documenting his travels in the translated manuscript "Rihla
ila al-Hijaz", now stored in Leipzig University Library. Lahlali
and Al-Dihan here introduce the manuscript and provide a commentary
on this remarkable journey and the socio-political climate of the
time in which it took place. Al-Tayyib's detailed manuscript
contains accounts of observations he made during his travels and
his comments regarding the social, economic and political
conditions of the countries he visited, as well as comments about
the scholars whom he was able to meet. The work is considered the
most important reference to the author's life and culture, and is
an important source in terms of the linguistic derivations of
geographical names. Lahlali and Al-Dihan also provide an insight
into al-Tayyib's life and work during the period that he spent
outside North Africa. A full translation of the manuscript is
provided in this book which serves as a reference for further
study.
