Muhammad: The Last Prophet

Assalamualikum,

I was disappointed by Hollywood because of their movies which stereotyped Muslims as terrorist, paedophiles and girl beaters. But when i heard about this anime, i was surprised! The animation is cool, the storyline has the mix of Oliver Stone and the Quran. I recommend it a 8/10. This anime is about the life of Muhammad and how Mecca has transformed from a pagan city to a holy Islamic town. If you're an anti-Muslim but wants to know the truth about Islam, then go see this movie. You wont be disappointed. Director Richard Rich has followed the syariah law in order to create a nice movie. Thank you Rich and may Allah bless you.

Wassalam

This film shows a humorous and lively animation of the Prophets life and portrays his companions in a lovable way along with his foe's as cartoon like baddies, depicting on their much annoying qualities, for example Abu Lahab is shown as money greedy and Abu Jahl is shown as hungry for power, similar to Jafar from Aladdin.

The Prophet is shown in a kind and compassionate way and his journey of delivering the message of worshipping the One God allows the viewer to embark on this adventure and intrigues them to find out more about the details of what actually did happen.

The movie is suitable for young children with eager minds allowing them to develop skills in character analysis and subtleties of conversation, this is a family film and one most enjoyable to watch on a cosy day in.

10/10

This is a long awaited movie with excellent animation of an excellent story. It is a must see for all people of all ages who would like a summary of Islamic history in fun way. Unfortunately, the movie is very hard to find since it is seldom shown on movie screens, and is virtually unavailable for sale anywhere. One can find "unoffical" copies dubbed or subtitled in many languages, including Arabic, Turkish and English. I have asked many of the copyright holders for the reason that this very important movie is not available in the market in DVD, VCD or VHS formats. To date, I did not receive any reply. This is somehow frustrating. If I were in control of things, I would make this movie available in all languages and in all countries for free or for a very nominal price. But I guess we have to wait till the next century.

This is a great animation of the greatest biography of the prophet (peace be upon him) I shed tears when I was watching this animation although I knew all of the story in details but this is the miracle of his biography every time you hear it you love it even more,, may Allah gives guidance to all who deserve it and gives guidance to all the Muslims to return back to their religion and fill the earth once again with justice and love ( this day will come when Jesus peace be upon him too will descend from heavens to the earth and he will be too a follower of the last prophet Muhammad peace be upon them all).

I recommend this animation to those who wants to start to know about the last prophet of humanity and to continue and search about the story in more details and then come back and argue(if there is any arguments left).

I'd just like to comment to Hazim Ibrahim. It is haram (forbidden) to show any likeness of any prophets in Islam. The obvious reason for this being that no one alive today would know what they look like. This is to prevent controversy like what Christians encounter when they try to portray Jesus (AS). Aside from that, it's really inconsequential what any of the prophets looked like. The focus should be on their message. Secondly there are not enough material out there for Muslim children so I don't think you should denounce an effort to provide one. Third, it is important for Muslim children to learn about the Prophet Muhammad (SAW)and video is an easy way to reach them. Should the restriction on portraying the Prophet (SAW) prevent such videos from being made? I don't think so. I believe this video was a good effort and I welcome videos like this one.
