Movie Review: Muhammad's Life
Summary: 2 Stars
This documentary relates to the world today because it shows why Muhammad's followers are so involved in the religion that most Muslims uphold. It illustrates many of the struggles that some Muslims still face. The strength that many of them have to have in order to live in today's modern times.
This documentary goes through the life of the prophet of Muhammad. It begins with Muhammad's birth in 570 A.D. You learn about Muhammad's childhood and how he was raised as an orphan throughout his life. The documentary does a great job explaining the tribes in Arabia as well. You learn about Muhammad's life and how he meets his wife Khadijah, whom later on becomes a great influential encouragement to the success of Muhammad. Muhammad's revelations are told among his early ministry and how they were influenced by several individuals. The hardships and persecution the early followers endured to bring about the religion of the Muslims. It also portrays a lot of information on the battles between Medina and Mecca. It tells the story of Muhammad with profiles of various American Muslims: a firefighter who was converted to Islam; an Islamic calligrapher; a woman who moved to the U.S. from India at age fifteen; the chief of staff for a New York congressman; a nurse in Michigana and a convert making the pilgrimage to Mecca.
Some of the key points of the Prophet's life that was shown in the documentary were Muhammad's first revelations on Jabal an-Nur, marrying of his wife Khadija, protection through his Uncle Abu Talib, Khadija's and Abu Talib's deaths in 619, the Hijra in 622, and Muhammad's wars between Mecca and Medina. IOt illustrates how he helped in finding the state in Medina (Yathrib). Muhammad's death was in 631. His state of successions and the meaning of Muhammad's life and how the Qu'ran to modern Muslims was a big highlight of his ministry.
