Abstract
The idea of Orientalism is an idea that began with the beginnings of the Western rise in religious reality when they discovered the Muslims’ spiritual, transcendent connection to the Qur’an. That's why they wanted to separate the soul from the body. In various fields.
Through this research, we have clarified the ideas and goals of the Orientalists and how they stood against the Islamic religion, especially the Holy Qur’an, and the issue of the Qur’anic revelation as a psychological revelation stemming from the personality of the Prophet Muhammad (may God’s prayers and peace be upon him and his family). This view is insisted on by the Orientalists. That is why we discussed refuting or dropping these hypotheses and standing against their arbitrary opinions that are not based on the elements of constructive scientific research and real evidence for their opinions.
The topic of Orientalist understanding is one of the topics that has been raised widely and extensively in the arena of Islamic studies and on the academic level. But we have prepared the appropriate ground for this research, in a form different from what we know, in a simplified, clear, academic manner based on the rules of constructive scientific research, while linking the history of Orientalism and the fabrications they have said about the Holy Qur’an and the Islamic religion, to the issue of Qur’anic revelation and the theory of psychological revelation, and how to refute this theory through statements and conclusive evidence from the Qur’an. The Holy Prophet, the purified Sunnah of the Prophet, the sayings of the Companions, and the opinions of scholars on this subject in a modern and useful manner. God Almighty said (And those who disbelieved said to their messengers, “We will certainly expel you from our land, or you will return to our religion.” Then their Lord revealed to them, “We will certainly destroy the wrongdoers.”) .
