Excerpt from The Unoccupied Mission Fields of Africa and Asia"The night lies dark upon the earth and we have light;So many have to grope their way, and we have sight;One path is theirs and ours - of sin and care,But we are borne along, and they their burden bear,Footsore, heart-weary, faint they on the way,Mute in their sorrow, while we kneel and pray;Glad are they of a stone on which to rest,While we lie pillowed on the Father's breast."Father, why is it that these millions roam,And guess that that is Home, and urge their wayIs it enough to keep the door ajar,In hope that some may see the gleam afar,And guess that that is Home, and urge their wayTo reach it, haply, somehow and some day?May not I go, and lend them of my light?May not mine eyes be unto them for sight?May not the brother-love Thy love portray?And news of Home make Home less far away?"- Rev.

In his zeal to convert Muslims to Christianity, Zwemer was unmatched and this book helps to explain why. Not shy about admitting that the three major monotheistic religions share the concept of one God, he begins an examination of Islamic ideas about God, from a Christian perspective. Starting with the premise of the singularity of Allah, Zwemer discusses the Muslim ideas of the divine essence. In a chapter about the ninety-nine names of Allah he explores the similarity to the rosary and Islamic ideas of divine justice. Passing next to the attributes of Allah, Zwemer examines and analyzes what Muslims assert regarding God. In further chapters he deals with how Allah interacts with the world, the concept of the Trinity, and predestination. Determining that the completed idea of God in Islam is incomplete, Zwemer concludes with a case for the God of Christianity.

Moslem Women is built around six main chapters, with half devoted to the place and experience of Islamic women and half considering Christian mission to Islamic women and associated themes.  The Zwemers acknowledge some of the great women of Islamic history, such as Rabia, the famous early mystic, and Nurah Mahal, wife of the Mughal Emperor Jahangir. They speak in glowing terms about advances in the women's situation in post-Ottoman Turkey.  Samuel and Amy Zwemer's dedication to serving Muslims and to seeing them as people rather than as faceless numbers provides an excellent model for today's Christians who feel called to engagement with Islam.
