"The origins
of Freemasonry – as would be expected of such a “venerable secret society†– are
shrouded in myth, legend and almost impenetrable obscurity. Since at least the
late 18th century Masonic writers have sought to establish a link between the
Knights Templar and the Freemasons. Freemasonic lore and symbols have been
traced to ancient Egypt and Phoenicia. Yet, despite all the books and articles
exploring Freemasonry published over the last hundred years, there is one area
that has not received attention. It concerns Freemasonry’s debt to Islamic
mysticism and a shadowy tradition connecting the Masons with the Moors of North
Africa. "
