Abstract

In the early twentieth century Japan emerged as a military and political power of Asia into the world's political equations. It was a joy for Asian nations, because they saw the emergence of Japan as a new resurrection for Asia. On the other hand, some in Japan chanted "Asia for the Asians" slogan. Supporters of this idea, which was entitled "Pan –Asianism" called for special attention of Japan to Asia and the support of Asian nations against threats from the West. In the wake of events that, in practice took place, the idea of pan-Asianism marginalized, Because Japan became the new colonialism.
However, some Muslim scholars (In Iran and Russia) still had confidence in Japan and hoped to receive assistance from that country. Some Muslim scholars also believed to convert Japaneses to Islam, and some believed the rumors that Japanese Emperor had accepted Islam.
The idea of pan-Asianism and its reflection among Muslims is the subject of this paper. It wants to do this by studying the ideas and actions of two Muslim scholars (Abdul- Rahim Talibov from Iran and Abdul- Rashid Ibrahim from Russia). In addition this paper aims to study the Japanese propaganda activity in Asia and the reaction of Asian people to that masages
