    Honestly, this film has a very special place in my heart

    Honestly, this film has a very special place in my heart. The first time I watched it, I was just a kid in school, around 2011, and I've never forgotten it since. I used to watch short clips here and there over the years, but recently I finally sat down and watched the entire movie again, and it brought back so many memories and feelings.

    The Message is not just a film. It's a powerful work that shows us our history and our religion with respect and depth. It reminds us of the true meaning of Islam and the sacrifices of the Sahaba (the companions of the Prophet, peace be upon him). May Allah support Islam and Muslims everywhere and keep us steadfast on the right path.

    Honestly, this film deserves more than 5/5. It carries a unique spirit you rarely find in any other work. Even non-Muslims who watch it can feel genuine respect for Islam and learn about its story in a clear, sincere way.

    Now I really want to watch the English version so I can compare the differences between the two cuts.

    In short: A timeless film that can never be replaced, and it holds a lasting value for me and for everyone who watches it with an open heart.

    Story Of The GOAT In History

    The Movie Was Great For Almost 4 Hours I Didn't Feel The Time At All, The Fights sections Was So Good At That Even Now After 4 Decades I Still Watch Them, The Movie Was About Some Of Prophet Mohammed(Peace Be Upon Him) Stories, Director Mustafa AL Akkad Tried To Give Us The Very Most Important Things That Happen In The Prophet Life, I Really Hop Some Someone Else Will Make A Great Movie Like This Talking About The Prophet Stories.

    The meaning of Islam

    This is the original story of islam and prophet Muhammed, Not like the media wanted us to see it, everyone should watch this movie
    9khaabd

    This is true Islam

    The film directed and produced the best director in the history of Arab cinema, where he gave us a wonderful masterpiece, which is not understood by the world about the Arabs and Muslims for this I recommend watching even non-Muslims, It is indeed the best film in the history of Arab cinema.

    • Trivia
      Although broadly sharing the same film unit (director, editor, etc.), two different versions of the film (one in English and the other in Arabic), were shot simultaneously, scene by scene. Two completely different sets of actors shared the same set; once a scene had been established, one actor would play a character in one language, and then the whole scene reshot with his corresponding number speaking in the other language. The lone exception in the cast being Andre Morell who is credited as Abu-Talib in both versions. The main (English) version was released as "The Message", while the Arabic version became "Al-Risalah".
    • Quotes

      Narrator: If this Coran were revealed to a mount, it would collapse even off feared Allah, the Great, said the truth. The Prophet, elected official by Allah to carry what the mountains can not, is too great and inaccessible to be represented by a human. For that we will not see nor his image neither his voice nor his shade, throughout this film.
