Farouk Omar

I hear many people saying that one shouldn't watch Holy people being picturized because it's disrespectful.. This is an era of technology and kids these days don't bother reading. So PICTURIZATION perhaps is the only way to tell them about Islamic history. Moreover , the best part of this series is that any disputed and debatable chapter in Islamic history is not touched at all. This series doesn't call for any conflict... it's pure 100% authentic facts and must must must watch !!

This is not only a series, but this is the story of Islam. You will find life of Omar (ra), most life of Mohammed (PBUH), Ali (ra), Ebu Bekr (ra) and some of Osman (ra) and many other friends of the Mohammed (PBUH). You will find the birth of the Islam the spread of it. If you are interested in Islam you really should really see this series. All the actors especially Samer Ismail and Ghassan Massoud have done their best. The war scenes are well done. Historical characters, places, clothes, are very realistic . Once I have started i could not stop myself watching it. Many series like this should be produced.There is huge treasure lying in the history of Islam. There is a lot of stories can be a movie or 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.

Inspiring series, see real life heroes in action, a lot to learn from as quoted "The production explicitly showcases the path of "Al Farrouq" and the characteristics of equality, good governance, justice, tolerance, wisdom, compassion and leadership among others. It further sheds light on the personal values of the Khalifa"

Awesome direction and superb acting by almost all of the actors, seems like you are back in the days...

One of the best Islamic productions ever made. The series starts with the life of Umar (RA) in the pre-Islamic Arabia, and then continues with his life at the time of the mission of the prophet (PBUH), his conversion to Islam, the caliphate of Abu Bakr (RA) and finally, the Caliphate of Umar (RA) himself. The series is as accurate as it was possible without showing the prophet (PBUH).

The series is very well made. One of the most positive points of the series is that it lays great emphasis on the teachings of Islam, and how they changed the society of the time from the days of ignorance and injustice to the justice of Islam. It shows the efforts and the sacrifices of the companions of the prophet in spreading the message of Islam.

The Series really touches the heart. It increases the love of the companions.

In the end, all that I would like to say is that, although the series may not be perfect in every sense, it is a source of a lot of good. It is a series not to missed.

While watching sometimes i forget i am watching a film,because it was so fantastic and the actors really brought the characters to life.
