Abstract:
After having considered the extremist and negative thoughts developed about Islam and the Prophet (Peace be upon him), I was driven passionately driven to study and increase my knowledge about Orientalism. At the beginning, I was not aware of the depth and the complexity of this subject, and that I needed to make great efforts in order to study the relevant consequences. The writings of orientalists are today used in education as a reference to university graduates who later intend to become part of the decision - making authorities in their own countries, and in whose minds the image of Islam has been seriously alienated.Therefore, it is very important to take a scientific and objective position because scientific study should not be based on the prejudices created according to one’s identity, whether national, religious, political or cultural. From this particular point, it seemed necessary to examine the orientalists’ writings, to provide some examples, then to analyze and explain them according to three major references : the Holy Book of Allah, Al - Hadith Al Sharif and scientific logic.The verses about Jews clearly defined the relationship with these people and show the reality of their position. Moreover, the research was based on various historical writings, and other writings about the Prophet’s biography. It also tackled a large number of the orientalists’ books and writings which have been translated into Arabic and other foreign languages.The research is divided as follows : Four chapters with an introduction and a conclusion, accompanied by a list of references and a special note mentioning the names of some Jewish orientalists, as well as their biographies and their classified writings.The first chapter tackles the start of Orientalism, its development, main goals and objectives. It also referred to the several means which helped in propagating the ideas and thoughts of orientalists.The second chapter is entitled : “Orientalism and Jewish orientalists”, and discusses the role of Jews and the Jewish culture in writing history. It also mentions the reasons behind the integration of Jews into Orientalism as well as their main objectives, not to forget the factors that helped them in achieving their goals. The chapter reviews the orientalist research centers in Israel and provides examples of the orientalists’ main areas of interest.The third chapter talks about the Jewish orientalists who discussed the biography of the Prophet Mohamad (Peace be upon him), whereas the fourth chapter deals with the writings of the Jewish orientalists. In conclusion, the confrontation with jewish orientalist is brought to the light, as well as the steps that need to be taken in this perspective.
