Based on the socio-historical approach, by using thematic interpretation, by first collecting some of the Qurâanicâs sentences related to the de-islamophobia then interpreted in accordance with asbâb al-nuzûl and its socio-historical setting followed by the Mufassirâs understanding which is contextualized with todayâs context. Since the holy Qurâan has emphasized that Islam is not like what has been believed by the followers of the islamophobia. Islam highly upholds tolerance and peace.Keywords: Islamophobia, Radicalism, Re-interpretation
