Omar Paton was one of the last Castilian Muslims to complete the hajj, or pilgrimage to Mecca. He undertook the journey from his home city of Ávila (Castile), departing in 1491. Upon his return from the East, Paton depicted the experiences and emotions he lived during his long and dangerous pious expedition in his Memoir of the Journey to and from Mecca. This unit contains a brief introduction to the Memorial with notes and a short bibliography in Spanish, along with a pedagogical edition and modernization (into modern Castilian) of the original aljamiado text relating Patón’s experiences in Alexandria, Damascus, and Jerusalem.
