الإسلام في عيون العلماء الغربيين في القرنين التاسع عشر والعشرين

Abstract EN

The communities of the Islamic world have had so many accusations from the west in the 20th century.

These accusations focused on embracing and supporting terrorism, refusing to co-exist with other religions, fanaticism as well as violating human rights, some of the politicians, orientalists and people of mass media who handled this were the British Prime Minister, Winston Churchill and the American politician Samuel Huntington, who denied the favour of the Islamic Civilization on the West.

This led to creating a negative and passive view against Muslims and Islam in the west.

The testimonies of so many fair Western Scholars contributed in giving the true picture of Islam and building the bridges of communication between the Islamic world and the west.

From those, the famous French physician and historian Gustave Le Bon, the Irish playwright George Bernard Shaw, the English historian Herbert George Wells and the Muslim German Deplomat and Doctor Murad Hofmann.

The Muslim scholars had a great role in tracking, translating and publishing these testomonies in their writings and magazines.

From those, the Palestinian translator and thinker Adel Zuaiter, the Egyptian translator and thinker Mohammed Fareed Wajdi, the historian and reformer of Kuwait Shiekh Abdul Aziz bin Ahamed Al Rashid and the scholar Shiekh Mebsher Al Tarazi Al Hussaini (Western Turkistan).
