This is probably the greatest epic made for TV ever, and would probably rival many movies of this genre too, and the acting and scope of the world is just mind blowing. The art direction, acting and incredible sets are as breathtaking as the massive scope of the series. It's a wonderful Series! It's the most expensive TV-Production of 200 Million SAR. It contains 30 episodes. Each episode is Epic. The Series also gives depiction of the birth of Islam. The plot focuses on the historical events. It's accurate in that it tries to present the birth of Islam as most people today probably learn it. Definitely it's not a propaganda piece. Its production and cinematography is much better than high budget HBO TV Series.

Once i started the series i could not stop until i watched all the episodes. Excellent work done by director, producer and wonderful acting of the cast has made it unforgettable work. Some people would criticize about the personification of the companions(R.A) but in my view, whoever watches the whole series gets more in love with them. This series is highly recommended for non-Muslims who want to learn how Prophet Muhammad (p.b.u.h.) trained ordinary people in such a way that they conquered half of the world within a decade and maintained high degree of morals, characters, justice and ideal administration. The series enlightens their way of life in a realistic humanly manner rather than superstitious.
