Summary | "Our Moslem Sisters" by Annie Van Sommer and Samuel Marinus Zwemer is a collection of essays written in the early 20th century.

The authors aim to raise awareness among Christian women and appeal for action to improve the lives of these women through education and spiritual salvation. The opening of the book outlines the grave injustices faced by Muslim women, arguing that their seclusion and the prevailing social customs hinder progress and contribute to their ignorance and suffering. The introduction discusses the historical and religious roots of these issues, including the impact of Islamic law on women's lives. The authors present a call to action, emphasizing the urgent need for intervention from the Christian community to help alleviate the plight of these women and to carry forth the message of hope and salvation.
