Authors : Dahman Abdulhak . Houria Saou .

Abstract

The paper examines how artificial intelligence systems perpetuate anti-Muslim prejudice through their language models alongside their image classifiers and digital platforms. The paper presents the term algorithmic Orientalism to explain how colonial Stereotypes become embedded and magnified in AI technologies. The research develops an interdisciplinary framework which combines Critical race Theory with Islamic ethics and algorithmic accountability to identify and counter Islamophobic AI patterns. The paper demands Muslim-led innovation together with ethical design in future technology development to protect justice and dignity
