摘要
The article studies a poem on the Mawlid composed in 1937 by Sheikh Abdelhamid Ben Badis, founder of the Association of Algerian Muslim Ulama. In a "colonial situation" marked by threats of depersonalization, this date in the Hegirian calendar was seen by the head of Algeria's Islah as an opportunity to call on Muslim youth to take the Prophet as their model and defend Algeria's Arab-Islamic identity. His position on the celebration of the Mawlid shows the difference between Algerian Ulemas and Wahhabism in the definition of blameworthy innovations. Despite this, administrative Islamology passed them off as Wahhabis. To explain the motives of this discipline, a parallel is drawn between its political "truths" and the historical "truths" of impartial orientalism. Such a comparison would help us to better understand similar contemporary situations.
