As much as i was exited for this series it delivered more disappointment.
Can't believe how they skip over some of the most important historical events and put more focus on inappropriate scenes,
made us started to think if the producer is even Muslim?
Casting is TERRIBLE all around but how TF you get Ayman Zedan as Othman RA???
If Abu Jahl himself produced this series he wouldn't portrait Moawiya's Mother and wives like this production team did.
Plain disrespect and shame, there has to be hidden agenda.
Hopefully it will be taken down before Ramadan ends and someone got to audit where was the $100M spent.

The Moaviya series claims to be a historical drama, but in reality, it feels more like a political narrative designed to favor one sect while ignoring key historical facts. Unlike series like Omar, Mukhtar Nama, Prophet yusuf (A. S) or Imam Ali, which were based on strong historical research, Moaviya distorts events and characters to push a specific agenda.
One of the biggest issues is its selective storytelling. It glorifies Muawiya while downplaying or misrepresenting other key historical figures. Events like the Battle of Siffin, his conflict with Imam Ali (A. S/R. A), and his role in shaping early Islamic politics are either softened or twisted to create a one-sided portrayal. Instead of presenting history as it was, the series seems to be shaping a new version of the past to fit modern ideological narratives.
The production quality, costumes, and cinematography are impressive, but they cannot hide the fact that the show lacks historical credibility. It prioritizes dramatization over truth, which makes it misleading for viewers who do not know the real history. Unlike Mukhtar Nama, which provided a balanced and well-researched perspective, Moaviya feels like propaganda wrapped in high production value.
If you are looking for an accurate historical series, this is not it. The Moaviya series is more about political messaging than real history, and it does not deserve to be compared to truly great Islamic historical dramas.
4/10 Good visuals, but misleading content.

For the historical context some of the details were changed maybe for the dramatic presentation but the most is correct ant the plot is on track and not effected by the changes and im not happy with the romance life that they showed they could have done something more useful for the show,
As for the show
This is probably the first time the Arabic cinema produced something this large and sure not last so based on that i give it peak plot 10/10,
As for the actors the leading actors who plays moawiya had the best performance and just perfect for the part and the actor playing ottman also did an amazing work ,some of the actors not so convincing like the one playing omar nor the one playing ali.
This production is made by corrupt people, who haven't paid the visual effects companies from India, Taiwan, China, Germany and Turkey so far.
The producer of this show refuses to pay the bills, unfortunately, the visual effects people will have no choice, as they take this show into the court as the producer left a lot of unpaid bills all over the globe.
As of now, the producers involved in this series are completely blacklisted in India, China and Taiwan. They highly don't recommend working with these unreliable and dishonorable people.
They will be taken to the court very soon.
You are going to be a bit more about this project, though very bad news.

This series is the story of Moawiya that's why it briefs everything before his era, the thing in this series that it makes you feel that you have lived this era with all its drama, try to be fair you will enjoy it.
The soundtrack with the dialogues is really great, I am expecting a lot from this crew that did this peace of art regarding the settings you will feel the effort made I also liked the choice of the actors which have the ability to speak the original Arabic language which is very important to put you in all details, also I liked very much the intro title that shows you the life that came from the desert incarnated in the ships sailing in the sand.
