Sesetengah Perspektif Barat Terhadap Sejarah Islam
Straley turut menulis perspektif sejarawan Barat silam terhadap sejarah Islam (m/surat 12).
The work of Julius Wellhausen on
the Rashiddun and Umayyad caliphs was partly an attempt to
determine the trends and motives of early Islamic historians,
but is unfortunately marred by his anti-'Abbasid bias and
his emphasis on the Western concept of the nation-state.
DS Margoliouth felt that biography was a
sufficient introduction to a historian and this is an
attitude that persists to the present day, with many scholars
simply raiding historical texts for a few "facts".
Franz
Rosenthal, in the attempt to present a unified study of
Muslim historiography, is totally uncritical of early Islamic
writers and accepts at face value their own - often platitudinous - statements on the purpose of their work.
The
one recent study of an Islamic historical writer, Abu Mithnaf,
is unfortunately hampered by the fact that none of his
writings have survived intact, and can only be dealt with
piecemeal through their citation or quotation in the works
of later writers.
