"The Quranic Revelation between the Islamic Thought and the Modernist Orientalist Thought" is a study in which the author Yaqoub Al-Mayali compares the theories of the Islamists with the modernist orientalists over the nature of the Revelation and its status in the realm of perception and knowledge. The presentation includes several valuable visions that deserve to be discussed by the Islamists; however, what the others have presented requires further dismantling to expose the unintellectual background of the theories they acquired or proposed for the purpose of weakening the argumentation of the revelation and the forcefulness of the Quran in the Islamic communities. Such a kind of responses to theories the modernist orientalists have exerted efforts on their formation should include the psychology and the sociology of the thinker as some thoughts attributed to the revelation apply to them first of all, because they believe that leadership of change in their communities starts with discrediting the Quran, the prophecy and the Revelation; all of this was indeed but the result of their inability of comprehending the Quran, so they quit attempting to comprehend it and went farther to leaving it behind.
