الملخص EN

It is worthy of note to state that the Hejaz travel - widely known as Pilgrimage travel – has always and long attracted a widespread and a careful attention of various scholars, travellers and historians throughout the different stages that the Islamic history has gone through.

This reality is quite apparent in the writings and literary productions produced to explore this subject matter during that time and thereafter.

It is plainly evident that scholars interested in the issue of Hadj travel have approached it thoughtfully yet differently, meaning they tackled the present matter from different angles.

As a matter of fact, the Algerian Hejaz journey is a good case in point in the sense that it has brought to the surface some divergent insights that are evident on the political, cultural and social levels.

The present study seeks to highlight this particular literary genre.

To this end, this study is divided into two major parts.

The first part will provide an overall image on travel literature in general.

However, the second part will be devoted to examine the Algerian Hedjaz travel writings during the Eighteenth century.
