Alfred Le Chatelier embraced the mysticism of Sufi brotherhoods. The "Revue du monde musulman" did not oppose colonialism. Le Chatelier tried to put to rest the fears of colonial officials that some huge pan-Islamic movement would sweep aside their authority, and to assure them that if a realistic, fact-based and sympathetic policy were adopted toward the Muslim subjects of French colonies there need be no unrest. In 1911 Le Chatelier published "La conquête du monde Musulman", a survey of Protestant missions in Islamic societies, in the "Revue du monde musulman". The article was quickly translated into Arabic and published in many Egyptian newspapers.
