Description

About This Book:
"Dr. Seddon's work adds a significant and captivating chapter to the recent history of Britain." —David Waines, former professor of Islamic Studies at Lancaster University in the United Kingdom. Yemeni Muslims have been a part of the British story since the mid-nineteenth century, first as imperial oriental seamen and then as postcolonial labor migrants. They landed in British ports and industrial towns, where they not only added to the cultural tapestry but also shaped the ecclesiastical environment.
These Yemeni Muslims not only blended in but also left their imprint. They married local British wives, built a network of distinctive "Arab-only" boarding houses and cafés, and were crucial in the establishment of Britain's first mosques and religious groups. The author, Mohammed Siddique Seddon, is a lecturer in religious and Islamic studies at the Department of Theology and Religious Studies at the University of Chester in England. His study and observations shed light on this crucial component of British history and cultural diversity.
