Globalization has swept the whole world since the sixties, and occupied an ample space in the books of the intellectuals and researchers. It started to be the basic weapon which the United States used in the so-called war of words, as a purely colonialist aim that targets the Muslim world in general, and, particularly, the Arab countries prompting some researchers to call globalization as "Americanization" and giving both words a synonymous sense. Multinational intercontinental companies have generated globalization, reached, today, the free trade system which recognized it internationally and decided to express it institutionally within the laws that are working on breaking down trade barriers in favour of freedom of movement of commodities and the capital under the supervision of an international organization that has the name of The World Trade Organization (GATT). It has emerged through the communication networks and the flow and exchange of information, not all types of information of course, exclusively the Western culture, Globalization in its contemporary concept: "Americanization", has not been limited to the political or economic aspect, It even went beyond that, the cultural aspect, which is the real danger, as it spread to affect the cultures of the nations and the national and Islamic identity, which led to publicizing models of behaviours, patterns of values and methods of living that Muslim societies were not formerly used to. Cultural globalization is synonymous with the so-called Western or American cultural invasion, because it adopted also, the destabilization of the religious values and replacing the mind and thinking and making it work according to the aims and interests of the invader by finding faults with Islam through distorting it, disseminating suspicions, and depicting it as a religion that sponsors terrorism. The foregoing shows that globalization includes several fields and specializations. Therefore, researchers coined the terms: political globalization, economic globalization cultural globalization globalization of media, and globalization of Islam. All these disciplines are interrelated in order to work for the Western interests of controlling the Muslim world and its treasures, weakening it, weakening the Islamic laws, morals, and values, and dimming and blurring the glory of the Islamic civilization, which was the base from which the West has set to build their civilization.
