Edward Lane created a wide panorama of life and customs in the countries of the Middle East from the Middle Ages to the beginning of the 19th century. The book talks about religion, the riches of Arabic literature and art, the features of everyday life and holidays, and the magical rituals of Muslims. Separate chapters are devoted to Arab women and issues of education in medieval Islamic society. The work is based on the author's personal memoirs, rare manuscripts of medieval Arab writers and historians Ibn al-Jawzi, al-Qazwini and al-Suyuti, as well as fairy tales and folk beliefs of Arabs, Persians and Egyptians from the time of the Arabian Nights.
