Abstract
Islamophobia, whose historical origin dates to medieval Christian sources dominated by Vatican-based church teaching and Jewish nationalism that has existed since ancient times, has developed along the axis of elements such as hostility, hatred and fear generated about the Islamic religion and Muslims. The problematic view produced against this historical ‘enemy’ has updated itself under the umbrella of Islamophobia conceptualization along with the modern world design, adding new ‘achievements’ in the cyclical nature of time. Islamophobia, which expresses an artificial fear and stereotyped prejudices against the religion of Islam and Muslims today, has been functioning in different processes and forms throughout history, has caused different results, and has directly or indirectly affected the social, political, and cultural sphere. This effect has usually taken place in negative contexts, and over time, it has transcended social boundaries or regional divisions and turned into a global phenomenon and threat perception. Stereotyped, problematic representations such as stereotypes and phantasmagorias, which Jewish nationalism and especially medieval Christian teaching have built in social memory through traditional texts, have been highly influential in the emergence of this phenomenon. Islamophobia, which is constantly kept on the agenda and produced through the centres and institutions of different religions in the historical process, has almost gained an institutional and historical identity with the concept of Islamophobia.
