Abstract
Among the many virtues of the Islamic world that visitors often remark upon
is the great hospitality. When I first lived in Morocco as a young student study-
ing Arabic, I was overwhelmed by the hospitality that I received. I was often
welcomed into the homes of people I had never met before with a degree of
generosity and hospitality that went far beyond what I had experienced in the
homes of some people I had known for many years. Of the many memories
that I have from this, my first adventure into the Muslim world, there is one
that is most dear to me.
