- Abstract
Literature is one of the most closely related fields to history, notably, the art of short stories and novels, where writers select specific plots and characters from Arab-Islamic History and present them to Arab readers in a fascinating way. Taking advantage of their historical writing skills, some historians took interest in the field of Literary Studies and represented historical characters through the use of narrative as well as biographical methodologies without any prejudice for historical facts. Likewise, Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi had written Historical Fiction that simulates reality. The current study seeks answers to the following questions: how was Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi able to use literature in his historical novels? What are the dimensions of the historical fiction in the philosophy of Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi? Did he use his own writing approach, or he depended on the same methods used by other historical writers? How did his historical view of past events reflect contemporary political and social events? What type of historical novels does his work belong to? The study relied on selected examples of literary works of Sultan bin Muhammad Al Qasimi through an authentic and descriptive approach that aimed to identify the details and dimensions of these narratives. It also highlighted his capabilities of transmitting knowledge to the reader of his historical fiction in a harmonious way without altering historical facts.
