Abstract

Author(s): Ä°smail METÄ°N

It’s very important to be understood and to be described the personality of Prophet Muhammad in the West rightly. Prophet Muhammad is a model person and a guide to happiness in this world and in here after. At the same time especially the Christian West has seen him a rival for them and furthermore an enemy. For that reason they said some negative things on his personality and marriages and they accused him. Generally French Orientalists evaluated the marriage of Prophet Muhammad and his relations with women in the subject of his personality. The majority of orientalists set their dissertations on the sexual desire, marriage with children and social and political power gain. In this paper, we will evaluate the approaches of Maurice Gaudefroy-Demombynes (1862-1957), Régis Blachère (1900-1973) and Maxime Rodinson, they are two orientalists in 20 century, to the personality of Mohammad and his marriage comparatively.
