It has been known certain that Islamophobia in the West lies in a rootless and irrational fear and prejudice against Islam. The fact has been emphasized by a team of researchers with many evidences. On the one hand, some have viewed Islamophobia as a result of the conspiracy theory and the fabrication of their illusionist minds of Muslims to confront any scientific critique. As viewed by some, paying little attention to what said by the critics of Islamophobia may be regarded as one weaknesses of present researches in this field. The present paper, using the descriptive-analytical method and surveying documents, has studied the most important theories and views of the critics or those denying Islamophobia in three distinct sections: a) some scholars, while confirming the empirical fact (the existence of a current opposing Islam and Muslims in the West), do not consider the word Islamophobia as appropriate; (b) Some viewed Islamophobia as not being an emerging phenomenon, which constitutes a new form of racism; (c) Others essentially deny the existence of Islamophobia and all its symbols.
