The awareness to respond to the studies conducted by Western scholars about the East and the Arab world, in particular, is the influence of the modernization of theory. Edward W Said's work Orientalism is one of the responses and criticisms of Western scholars' studies of the Arab World. The work also indicated the institutional research of Arab word related to European cultural domination. Said rejects all forms of Western hegemony over the Arab world and denies the thesis that the Islamic world can develop due to Western intervention. On the one hand, in his book Orientalism and Religion, Richard King tries to offer another perspective on Orientalism. According to him, although Orientalism has its negative side, under certain conditions, Orientalism has also awakened the consciousness of the East to build their distinctive scientific discipline, which is then known as subaltern studies.
