Islamophobia is a modern phenomenon that has emerged on the international stage. It refers to the fear of Islam and Muslims in the West, a concept that became prevalent after the events of September 11 in the United States, which helped to propagate it globally through its media institutions and companies in both visual and audio social communication. Islamophobia is a prominent tool and a form of discrimination and racial prejudice against Islam and Muslims, and it has been a driving force behind the expulsion and displacement of many Arab and Muslim immigrants in Western countries, as well as the exercise of all forms of racism and oppression against those residing there. Importance of the research: The emphasis lies in highlighting the phenomenon of fear of Islam and Muslims that has been fabricated and promoted by the West through the dissemination of extremist ideas that have no connection to Islam whatsoever. This has placed upon every Muslim an important message and an urgent necessity, and a humanitarian matter first and foremost, as Islam is a religion not just for its followers, but for all of humanity. The essence of this message, without change, alteration, deception, or distortion, is to reveal the hidden true face of Islam, and to eliminate the terrorist suspicions that the West has tried to attach to Islam, taking the actions of some extremists and presenting these actions as the sole image and the only pattern of the Islamic religion.
