    “One (Mustafa Kemal Ataturk) is a hero, the other (Mahatma Gandhi) is a Prophet (nabi),” wrote celebrated Egyptian journalist Abbas Mahmoud al-‘Aqqad in Abtal al-Wataniyya (Nationalist Heroes), a book published in 1923. The book contained five nationalist heroes revered in Egypt and Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was one of them.

    Noor-Aiman Khan, who teaches history at Colgate University, believes, “the relationship of the Egyptian nationalist movement to the Indian would fit this description (Benedict Enderson’s definition of a nation) in all aspects except the issue of sovereignty.

    Preface

    A huge body of literature has been produced on Mahatma Gandhi in different lanuages of the world. The Arabic language is no exception. It so happened that the Indian freedom movement under the leadership of Gandhi had a great impact on the Arab elit who nourished the nationalist momentum of the Arab masses.
