Abstract:

The situation in the narrations of Islamic history and its effect on the facts of historical events, incidents, and news is a significant topic in the study of Islamic history, its sources, and its narrators. It focuses on how history is written, how closely it relates to the narrators, and how this affected historians when they were writing history. It clarifies the motivations and circumstances-whether deliberate or inadvertent, subjective or non-subjective-that led narrators to make up stories. The study examines the impact that the circumstance had on the historical narratives that certain narrators practiced. And how this led to the accompanying rhyme, intellectual, and social issues, as well as the distortion of historical facts and deception of readers. The research focuses on addressing the causes of the situation and their types, including political or material motives that may exploit history to achieve certain goals, hostility between individuals or groups, and the weakness of religion that results in a lack of religious awareness. In addition to the role of storytellers, it also addresses the narrators' ignorance of the objectives, since their inability to comprehend the purpose of the events impacts the accuracy of the narrations. The study also draws attention to the unintended consequences, such as the occurrence of passion and mixing, as well as the issues with misprinting and distortion that affect historical texts. This phenomenon's effects are seen in the propagation of harmful ideas and myths as well as the distortion of historical facts, which has a detrimental impact on how historical figures are viewed and widens the gulf between Muslims. This highlights how crucial it is to confirm historical accounts and examine narratives in order to guarantee a precise and impartial understanding of Islamic history. By offering a thorough understanding of historical events and their consequences, the research aims to raise societal awareness of the past.
