اليابان وآمال المسلمين بعد 1904

اليابان وآمال المسلمين بعد 1904

In the Pan-Islamic chapter Arslan records how Muslims cheered Japan's victory over Russia in 1904, quoting an Egyptian newspaper and a Chinese Muslim scholar who thought Japanese conversion might change the course of Islamic politics. He reports that Japan welcomed a Muslim delegation warmly but showed no interest in converting, and he sees the lasting result as friendlier ties between Muslim peoples and non-Muslim Asian nations. This is drawn from the press and gatherings as Arslan reports them, not evidence of Japan's intentions.
