Abstract EN

The Arab Attitude towards OrientalismThere are many critical views on Orientalism; some praises, others defame and a group are moderate in their critical views.

The first group looked at orientalism with admiration by what Orientalists achieved in the field of authorship, dictionaries and manuscript review, praising the Orientalist methodology, ignoring the lapses and obvious mistakes in their study of Islam.

In contrast to the praising team that sees only merits in Orientalism, the other team that has taken a hostile position towards the entire Orientalist production, looking at it as benevolent and evil, accuses the Orientalists of bias and prejudice against Islam and Muslims, and the service of colonization and Christianization, describing the achievements of Orientalists in the field of dictionaries, revision and authorship as being acts aim at achieving suspicious orientalism goalsThe third team was moderate in its judgment on Orientalist studies; as they praised some of the Orientalists scientific achievements, revealing the mistakes of a number of Orientalists in their attitude towards Islam and Muslims.

In this research I have extrapolated many of these critical studies of Orientalism through my specialization in this field, to reach an evaluation of those critical studies, confirming the findings of those studies, commenting on what I think is contrary to the scientific method, and trying to reach the most important positives of the critical movement for Orientalist Studies.

Chapter 2: The Attitude of Arab intellectuals opposed to the Orientalist movement.

Chapter 3: The most prominent features of the scientific methodology for the evaluation of the Orientalist movement.
