Susan Mohammed Hamid Al-Harthi , Department of History and Archaeology, College of Arts and Humanities, King Khalid University, Abha

Abstract

This study discusses the suspicions raised by news reporters regarding the falsification of historical facts in the Islamic era, focusing on the methods and means used by these narrators to distort historical narratives. The aim of the study is to shed light on the historical events affected by the suspicions of the reporters, such as the events at Saqifah and the killing of the companion Hujr bin Adi, where reporters employed lying, fabrication, and false interpretation to reshape events in accordance with their biases. The study relies on a historical analytical methodology, based on reviewing both primary and modern sources, enabling researchers to assess the accuracy of historical narratives. It also highlights the role of reporters in disseminating misleading information and warns against accepting narratives without scrutiny. By analyzing these suspicions, the study emphasizes the importance of adhering to a critical methodology in the study of Islamic history and calls for a thorough review of historical accounts to ensure their validity before acceptance.  

Keywords
