Sinopsis

The Shepherd of Jebel Nur is a novel written by William Allen Knight and published in 1909. The story is set in the Middle East and revolves around the life of a shepherd named Ali, who lives in the mountains of Jebel Nur. Ali is a devout Muslim who is content with his simple life and is loved by his community for his kind and compassionate nature. However, his life takes a dramatic turn when he is called upon to help a group of American missionaries who have become lost in the mountains. As Ali helps the missionaries, he begins to learn about their faith and becomes intrigued by their teachings. He starts to question his own beliefs and begins to explore Christianity. This creates tension within his community, who are suspicious of the missionaries and their intentions. The novel explores themes of faith, love, and tolerance as Ali navigates his own spiritual journey while trying to maintain the respect of his community. It also sheds light on the cultural differences between the East and the West and the challenges faced by those who try to bridge the gap between the two. Overall, The Shepherd of Jebel Nur is a thought-provoking and heartwarming story that offers a unique perspective on the clash of cultures and religions. It is a timeless tale that continues to resonate with readers today.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
