What reading level is Veiled Mysteries of Egypt And the Religion of Islam book?
To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
It is necessary to tie the cover very securely to the Kaaba, as the winds in Mecca are uncertain, and come suddenly from all directions. It is Buckhardt who has a poetical passage bearing so exactly on this very point of the hanging of the cover.
" The black colour of the Kiswa, covering a large cube in the midst of a vast square, gives to the ICaaba at first sight a very singular and imposing appearance. As it is not fastened down tightly, ike slightest breeze causes it to move in slow undulat...ions, which are hailed with prayers by the congregation assembled around the building as a sign of the presence of its guardian angels, whose wings by their motion are supposed to be the cause of the waving of-the covering. Seventy thousand angels have the Kaaba in their holy care, and are ordered to transport it to Paradise when the trumpet of the last judgment shall be sounded.*' Being woven of cotton and $ilk, the weight of the material causes the curtains to hang firmly.
A few years ago, the Hadj told me, it was thought that the old hand-weaving of the Cover could be superseded by machinery.
