In an effort to change the West's monolithic view of Islam, Tim Mackintosh-Smith follows in the footsteps of 14th Century Moroccan scholar Ibn Battutah, who covered 75,000 miles, 40 countries and three continents in a 30-year odyssey.

In Cina, he meets a clan who trace their ancestry back to Arabs, and witnesses an illegal Arabic lesson.
