Lumsdal Good , But It Is Overrated By Some

MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

Zandra The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

innat-40104 A very beautiful piece of work. Decode the ere is such a great way to explain someone like this. Great Work.

Tim Shaw (teejayniles2345) Our regional PBS station used a single night to show the entire 180-minute run of "The Life of Muhammad" (2011). The experts have a cumulative effect of being a bit uncertain of what can and can't be known about that era of history. I found the use of black and white photography to be a bit confusing however. There are NO ancient pictures of the Kaaba and to have such "stock footage" inserted would be confusing for the viewers who should be watching this PBS - BBC Production with those who have some perspective on what is knowable and to be agreed upon as far as figures of civilization and world culture.I do rate the 3-part series (PBS and BBC) to be a 9 * rating.

xWRL Others will need to comment on its accuracy, but this tracing of the life of Muhammad from his early days in Mecca up to his death makes for a lively, colorful, and credible account of the founding of Islam.The documentary attempts to separate fact from fiction by interviewing a range of experts with a deep knowledge of Islam and of the history of that era. They don't agree among themselves on every single point, but the view of Muhammad that emerges is of a humble man and brilliant strategist whose mission was peace and harmony. If you're open to that view, this documentary will fill you with regret for the way Islam has been twisted, both by its enemies and by some of its extremist apparent friends.For "balance," a couple of extremists are even included among those briefly interviewed. The visuals are striking, including the desert landscapes and the imposing shots of modern day Mecca and Medina. The narrator, Rageh Omaar, is an articulate and personable guide through this thicket of contention.

Eman Naseer I Recently watched the documentary The Life of Muhammad, made by the BBC. It was part two of a three part documentary series on Christianity, Islam and Judaism. I think this documentary did a good job of not being biased or opinionated in the documentary, rather presenting facts and a good overview. The documentary portrayed Mohammad as a very spiritual man, they shared a good overview of the life of the prophet including both good and bad things. This gave people who may not be Muslim a better understanding of the religion through more of a historic view rather than a religious one. The documentary best outlines Mohammad's struggle when preaching monotheism. It also ddi a good job describing the time of environment Mohammad had to live through during the time when traveling to Medina. BBC's documentary seemed to also put things into context. In general I think that the documentary was entertaining and gave quite a detailed view of the prophet without being overall negative or positive.
