The discourse of identity between similarity and otherness The book "Europe and Islam" by Hisham Jait (study and criticism) Every question about the other obscures an obsession with this other "Hisham Jait"

Abstract

This research attempts to extrapolate the vision of Dr. Hisham Jaait through the book "Europe and Islam", so it turns out that it is an attempt to visualize the view of a non-European intellectual of Islamic origin to Europe and to himself. Therefore, it became clear to us that the image of the other in this book was not separate from the situation of the society in which it was built, as it is a social production in which the demand for truth is intertwined with the condition of existence, so the outside world had to help the Arabs get out of their isolation and integrate them into humanity so that the world would be Arab later. All nations to take steps in this direction towards openness, peace, democracy and human rights.
