In the name of God, the most gracious, the most Merciful

From Muhammad, the Messenger of God
to Heraclius,

the emperor of Byzantium, greetings to him
who is the follower of righteous guys

I bid you to hear the divine call

I am the messenger of God to the people,
accept Islam for yourself

He speaks of the new prophet in Arabia

Was it like this when John, the Baptist

came to king Hsrul out of the desert crying of salvation

To Mephocus, Patriarch of Alexandria

Kisra, emperor of Persia
Muhammad calls you with the call of God

accept Islam for your salvation
Embrace Islam

You come out of the desert, smelling of camel and goat
You stand as Persia kneel?

Muhammad, Messenger of God
Who gave him this authority?

God sent Muhammad as
a message to mankind

The Scholars and Historians of Islam -
The University of Al-Azhar in Cairo,

The High Islamic Congress of the Shiat in Lebanon
Have approved the accuracy and fidelity of this film

The makers of this film honour the Islamic Tradition

which holds that the Impersonation of the Prophet

offends againts the spirituality of his message

Therefore, the person of Muhammad
will not be shown

600 years after Christ died,

when Europe was sunk in the dark ages
and everywhere

the old civilizations were falling,
Muhammad was born in Mecca in Arabia

Mecca was then a rich trading city
ruled by its merchants

whose wealth was multiplied by a
unique privilege They housed the gods

Every year, at the time of the great fair,
the desert priests brought their idols

and the images of their gods into the custody of Kabbaah

Months, the most holyish reign of Abraham,
the Kabbaah has now

become a house of idology hosting
no fewer than 360 different gods

Mecca in 610 AD

Bilal!

Have the other days counted Umaya?

Not yet But this year the Gods are gold

When you put the Gods and Prophet together,
its a pretty bit deal

Oh, more Gods in the place of Kabbaah

Caravans from Syria

mm They must be in running Very thirsty

Put 5 more men in North Wells

How many sheeps will I have to kill for them? 70?

Give them a 100

Macca should keep her name
for hospitality

And 10 lambs for the leaders

Bread and water, do the poets have in the Hakim's house

Where verse and prose are nightly
put to slaughter

And and the bread, I swear in there,
is thinner than the water

Oh, open the space Open the space,
you lovers of poetry

to Abu Sufian, willing and which

patron of the art

When Abu Sufian invites the poet in, there joy is
kids and love is kin

where wines and cakes abound
the skills of Abu Sufian

All revels and all songs begin
when Abu Sufian invites the poet in

Roman silk, worms of China, my lady,

a pleasure to the lin, and as my lady can see,
ravish to the eyes

Yes 7 lengths
20 dinars

Abu Sufian's wife? 15!

Oh, gold!
the gods of the Kabbaah have their needs

They are Acives

Who is that man who stood there,
who looked into my soul?

Cut me away from here

Why did Muhammad come down here?

Why don't you stop him?

He is your nephew

Maybe he will change!

Change?

He is 40 years old
Its unnatural, with a rich wife he could afford the best of Mecca

If he chooses to sit shivering in a cave,

it is unnatural

For a man who dares to risk the anger of

Lath-Uzza, who keeps our health,
Mannat, the god of our prosperity,

Allot, the god of our family and tribes
and Hubar,

Hubar, who starts our caravans
and predicts our fate

To challenge the gods within a year
sort of the gods is dangerous

Unreasonable

Rebellious, blasphemous

Yes, I'm afraid Muhammad will harm himself

I am always sad
when the great fair is over

I might not see the next one

Abu Talib! Abu Talib!

Catch your breath, Zaid!

Has Muhammad come down from the mountain yet?

He's been there for 3 days

No No, I haven't seen him

Khadija hoped he might have come to you
on his way home

Maybe he's still up there

3 days

I'm afraid for him on the mountain
because I don't know what it means

Men see the world too well from a mountain

Muhammad! Read!

In the name of the Lord who created
man from his sensitive drop of blood

teaches man what he knows not

Read!

He's still trembling under the blanket, but he has spoken

Zaid! What happened to my nephew on the mountain?

He was alone in the cave
Suddenly an angel came on to him,

The angel said: Read!
Muhammad replied: I can not read

The angle commanded again: Read!

In the name of our Lord
who created man from his sensitive drop of blood

who teaches man what he knows not: Read!

Who knows if it was Gabriel!

It could have been a dream

When Muhammad was coming from the mountain
He saw Gabriel cleanly

in the shape of a man
standing on the horizon

Wherever he looked, upon every turn of his head
he saw him

Gabriel said to him again: I am Gabriel and
you Muhammad are the Messenger of God

Who has he told about this?

His Wife

and Ali

And his friend Abu Bakr

And you?

I am his adopted son

Be careful to whom you talk

Tell him his uncle who protected him
when he was a child will protect him still

After all, they say the God of Moses

spoke to him under the burning bush

If you do not restrain your nephew, then we will

He's dividing the city, heart against hopes
He's dividing the generations,

child against parent

The young are listening to him, he attract the yound

We are Arabs We obey our fathers
Our children cannot be our teachers

How can we accept that
the man we met in the street yesterday

can be some God's Prophet today?

Dead ones can live again, he says

because he who created man

can also make man return from the dead, he says

The Gods might leave us and
give their benefits to another city

Tell him we will give him authority, position,
and key to the Kabbaah,

and money what money he wants

Tell him we will give him anything he wants

Muhammad, spare yourself and me

Do not put a great burden on
an old man who can't bear

In your childhood, you were in my arms,

I cannot see you hurt
If you refuse them, they will hurt you

He said this to me:

Were they to put sun in my right hand
and the moon in my left

I would not renounce my message
which is from God

When I am dead, you may do as you please

but last time in your life,
you will believe your father

Why did you hurt your father?

If I'd be drunk every day and played dice
every night, you'd call it high spirits

You'll be more my brother than you are now

You are all my children

I give you everything I could, but it seems
not to be enough

Muhammad gives me more, he give all the world more

Get him out of here father!

Its not worth it He's our father

You torture him

Wait Hudaifa, wait

How can they say its an invention, Musab

when it isn't new?

In Mecca it's new

If God has said it all before, to Noah, Moses, Jesus, to all of Prophets,
but people changed it, turned it, forgot it

Now God said it to Muhammad again,
and it is new again

What is it?

It Jafar

What have you brought with you?

The very word of God

When the sun is overthrown

when the stars fall

when the mountains vanish

when the camels bid with yound abandoned

When the wild beasts are herded together

when the seas rise

When the souls are sorted

when the female infant who is buried alive

asks for what crime she was killed

when the books are opened

when the sky is torn away,

then every soul will know what it has done

You were there Jafar when God
gave him these words?

Dawn is coming up

Ammar you first, then you Jafar

Ammar, you keep your mother awake
all night with worry

I am sorry father

Where were you?

Have you been with Muhammad again?

What will happen now?

Forgive him It was my fault, I did it

That God has helped us all our lives

If it fell, it could not help itself

What talks have you been listening to?

The real god is unseen,
he's not made of clay

Ammar, we see the Gods in the Kabbaah every day

I am afraid for you

You are listening to people who will hurt you

I'm listening to Muhammad, mother

Muhammad is generous, yes He gives, he shares,

he pass no man without a smile,
but he is spreading dangerous ideas

Dangerous ideas that no man should start

that the rich should not afload the poor,

the strong should not oppress the weak
Are these dangerous ideas?

Girls should not be forced into marriage,

but be able to choose or refuse

But only tonight, he said to stop

the burial of new-born girls

I was fortunate, always fortunate with your mother

Yes, but you know that you and I nearly never met Yassar

and you were nearly never born

I was to be buried
like my 2 sisters

but my father couldnt' do it
He couldn't do it at that time

When the second girl was buried,

when my father was putting sand over her,

finger raised him as do babies,
told her mother afterwards

she took hold of his finger the way baby does
He told my mother afterwards, that it was a minute before the tender little grip eased

and he had taken away his hand

When I was born, my father ran out of the house

screaming that he couldn't do it again,

that he could never do it again

Sumaya, it is the custom

But it is wrong
The Gods that let such things be are no Gods

I promised to go to Muhammad's house mama
and pray there

Yes! He is a good man

Yes, yes, you go

Two men are following him

Read?
Muhammad can neither write nor read

Muhammad can speak

What did you say?

He can speak? Well, so can you
So now, you speak up yound man

What does Muhammad say umm?

They are God's words, not his

Which god's? What words?
A speaking god?

Your Muhammad speaks only to himself

When god reveals his message to Muhammad,

he remembers every word and
then he tells it to those who can write

It is the Qur'an

Muhammad has starved himself into dreams,
he hides under a blanket with his eyes shut

His eyes are shut but his heart is open

You! kick him for his cleverness

There, is no need for hasts

Doesn't Muhammad realize that we live by housing
to the Gods?

We own the Kabbaah

Every year, the tribes of Arabia come here
to Mecca to pray and to buy from us

Now, were we to replace 300
gods with just one?

whom we cannot even see, was supposed to be in Taif and Medina,

here in my house, in Jerusalem, on the moon?

Where would Mecca be then?

The gods are both our vision and our revenue

You cannot buy and sell God

Young man, you are close to be whipped

Ammar, be sensible boy

I have a question

Muhammad teaches you,
a slave is equal to his master

This black Bilal, I paid money for is equal to me?

Yes Muhammad says before God all
men are equal as the teeth of a gum

This is a very pleasant idea to slaves and beggars
It gives them pretensions

Bilal! Teach this man the difference between the Lord of Mecca and a slave
Take that whip

Lash his face to teach an enormous lesson

Whip him! Whip him!

Cut him!

Whip him!

Do it Bilal!

Obey them! They will kill you!

So you want anarchy to bring

They even infected our slaves

If you're human enough to have gods,
remember that there are gods for your owner

I bought humanity Bilal
when I bought you

You will be corrected

One, one god

There is only one God

Who is stronger now, your master
or this one god of yours?

One god There is only one God

Bring the stones

One god, One god! One god!

Crush him!

Are you finished with him?

There is only one God!

You could swear the slave was preaching!

Lord Umaya!

Abu Bakr will pay 100 dinars for this slave

Wait now!

It's against our social order
to sell a slave during his punishment

The offer is to Lord Umaya!

If the price of slaves is raised,
we shall have to pay ourselves next year

Take him He is no use to me anymore
Kill him or take him more I'm finished with him

We are declaring ourselves

God has told his messenger to declare Islam to all men

Open the windows!

Let the world hear

We are coming out of the darkness

Hear well the word of God
Hear well the messenger of Lord

There are no other Gods, but God and Muhammad is his messenger
We have come into light, join us on the way to the Kabbah

God is most great, God is most great!

God has no partner, we have come into light

Join us on the way to Kabbah

Muhammad and his rebellion called Islam
are coming out

to fall our gods
and de-throw our religion

Don't let them reach the Kabbaah

Throw them back! Defend your gods

There is no gods but God and
Muhammad is the messenger of God

Protect the prophet!
There is no gods but God and Muhammad is the messenger of God

Guards!

God is great!

Blasphemy! ldiot!

God is great!

There is no gods but God and
Muhammad is the messenger of God

Now's the time to break them,
there are only 30 of them

No! we've done enough
More will only create sympathy for them

God is great!

In the name of God, most gracious, most merciful

say: O you who reject faith
I worship not other

Get out of Kabbaah!

Silence, you'r a false prophet! Stop!

Back to the corner!

Hamza! Hamza!

You are brave

He is the bravest man in the desert
and he meets men unarmed

Muhammad is a liar

Liar? If you don't let him speak!

Where's the lie and where's the truth
when it hasn't been spoken yet?

Muhammad is a fraud

Stand up! Hit me back if you dare!

I affirm my nephew's religion
and I say what he says

Who ever has the courage to fight,
to fight with me!

Muhammed, when I hunt the desert at night,
I know that God is not kept in a house

Who'd have thought that Hamza, Hamza above all,
with his wine drinking, lion hunting

will come to join Muhammad?

More we attack, more seem to join him

Where does he find his words?

I don't know

How can an illiterate man go up on a mountain

and come back 3 days later blazing with poetry?

It wasn't just only poetry, he says it's God's

How do we fight someone
whose strength we do not understand?

Muhammad promises heaven, trees in the skies
It's natural he found audience

Then we must make that audience
less eager to listen to him

We will begin with the weaker ones

Have mercy!

Left hand!

Who is your God? Answer me!

Say it! Say who is your God?

Say it!

There is only one God and
Muhammad is the messenger of God

Ammar!

Your father and mother are the first martyrs of Islam

You are promised Paradise

How much are you men prepared to suffer?

The Prophet has said we must leave Mecca

If we stay, they will kill you
One by one

Mohamed says in Abinisia, there is a Christian King

No man is wronged in his country

We must leave now, today

Usman!

Lord is great

Let us go

We found their tracks and followed them

But they just disappeared

They were there, in the desert, under the vultures
And you let them escape you

Escape? They vanished!

If Muhammed has stayed, then only the weakest are gone

Weak or strong, they blacken our name

We are honest merchants, we buy and sell in good faith

We cannot afford scandal

Amr!

You are a friend of Najjasi, the king?

Yes

can you use that friendship?

I think I can bring them back

Yes

Abisinia...

Rise up Amr

Please, nothing you may ask for that we will not give

Lion of Judah, I.. I don't know where to begin

you have our friendship, begin there

certain run-away slaves have escaped from us into your kingdom

Slaves go back
or you agree to return your slaves back to us

there are however some free men among them

Rebels

Rebels?

If there are disagreements in Arabia,
why am I not informed?

They are rebels in religion

at one time are another
all religions were rebellions

The bodies of slaves of the world
if bidden are in-disposed

But as Jesus Christ as a shepherd,
the souls of men are his sheep

These are Arabs who have betrayed
the religion of their fathers

they follow a lunatic they call.. Prophet

But I cannot put souls into chains
without hearing them

good, they'r stiff.
Next they will hang them

Do you not now yourself before your prophet?

Muhammad is a man,
We kneel only to God

Where are Muhammad's miracles, Jafar?

If he were a prophet,
he'd lit the sky with miracles

indeed, this is true.
God has given his prophets signs of miracles that we may recognize them

The miracle of Muhammad is the Holy Qur'an

A book! A book! Written by an illiterate
attributed to God

I think the emperor's heard enough

A mind full of pedicast

When God set down
tons of fire upon the heads of christ of puzzles

so that they can speak the many languages of the world
that they knew not before

But do such miracles happen in our time..

I've heard enough. You've made a poor case

When we suffered persecution in Mecca,

Muhammad told us go to Abyssinia

the land of the righteous king,
where no man is wronged

What they call persecution was fair punishment,

that is order...

Why did your prophet send you to me?

Because you believe in the book of the one God as we do.

He sent us because
in your heart God will protect us

Talking with him is like
drawing water from a mirage

But now, they'd let the judy on me listen to them, my friend.

Go on!

For years, we worshiped wood and stone,
images of our own manufacture

we lived in ignorance of God

we had some earthly laws
and no heavenly laws. The rich neglect the poor.

And the natural pity of man

thereby lifts up when his brother has fallen

This is described by them as upsetting
social order

To this inhumanity has come a man
whom god chose and in that we believe

You've overcome. I beg you to collect yourself.
I speak of the messenger of god. Muhammad teaches us to worship one god,

to speak truth
to love our neighbors as ourselves,

to give charity, even a smile can be charity

to protect women from misuse,
to shelter orphans

and to turn away from gods of Wood and stone

I cannot be still and hear this blasphemy

We are an ancient civilization,
to call our gods wood and stone

is to speak ignorantly of them

The idol we home is not what we worship,
but the spirit that resides within the form

I agree that idolatry is
not always fully understood Thank you

Now, let me bring him back to the women

God made woman to be the proper companion of man

she is different but equal

Equal? We buy them,
feed them, perl them,

use them, distorb them,
women equal to us?

God created man from one male and one female

Amr, you must respect the woman's womb that bore you

Why are you 300 guards so tongue-tied?

what is only god is rependent.

God has spoken to us before

through Abraham, Noah, Moses and through Jesus Christ.
Why should we so surprised when god speaks to us now through Muhammad?

Who taught you those names?

they are named in the Qur'an

I knew Muhammad when he was an orphan minding sheep

And you knew Christ as a carpenter

What Christ says and
what your Muhammad says

is like two raised from the same land

They'r lieing to you
They deny Christ You worship 3 gods they say, father son and holy ghost they'r saying

What do you say of Christ?

They say God can not have a son,
Christ is not the Son of God

speak to me of Christ

we say of Christ what our prophet has told us,
that god cast his holy spirit into

the womb of a virgin named Mary and that
she conceived Christ the Apostle of God

Apostol he says, not a son, not a son!

What does your miracle, your Qur'an,
say of the breadth, by the Lord Jesus Christ?

may I relate the words?

Come closer to me

In the name of God, most gracious, most merciful

relate in the book, the story of Mary.
how she was grew away from her family

to a place in the east.
How we sent her an angel called Gabriel who said:

''I am a messenger from your God
to announce the birth of a holy son to you"

she said: How shall I Mary have a son when no man has touched me?''

And Gabriel replied: For your Lord says,

it will happen"
"We appoint him as a sign on to man"

and a mercy from us!
It is a thing or didn't"

The difference between us and you
is not bigger than this line

Not for a mountain of gold
will I give them up to you

you may live in Abyssinia in peace as long as you wish

May God's blessings be upon you when you return

lntolerable! Mohamed disturbs
even our foreign alliences

Very well! we will make him give up on him

Abu Talib has his arms around him

Very well! we will throw uncle and nephew out

In one bundle, his whole family out
we will expel them from ourselves

No merchant make trade with them,
no land remain to them

no roof shelter them,
no beggar pay for them

no woman marry them

until they renounce their trend.

These were the worst years of Muhammad's life

For 3 years they suffered the hunger, thirst,

cruelty of the open desert,
but the year of grief was still to come,

when Khatija, Muhammad's wife for 24 years died,

when Abu Talib his old Protector died

With his last breath Abu Talib tried again
to reconsile Mecca and Muhammad

He never asked more from you,
when one word,

one.. one God

If it was only a question of one word

I'd have given him 10 words,
but the word he wants would dethrown all the gods

You were afraid even to hear him

with the death of his uncle, Muhammad has now

lost all protection
He was no longer safe in Mecca

Alone with Zaid, his adopted son,
he went to the hillside town of Taif

He asked to be taken in, to be allowed to preach

But the children of Taif were turned loose to stone him back into the desert

What are you doing?

Stop! Stop! Leave him alone! Wait!

Muhammad called this, the bitterest day of his life

Then miraculously, when Muhammad's mission

seemed to have failed, his entire situation changed

A deputation from the rich, but self-destroying

city of Medina met him by night at the Rock of Agaba

asking him to come to them to stand between their factions

to mediate their continual quarrels and civil wars

Muhammad agreed, provided they gave him a pledge

that they worship the one God only

Wait! When we take this pledge

we expel ourselves from the rest of Arabia.
So, wait!

War is in this pledge.
We'll make enemies of brothers

we'll make firewood of our gods
That is the meaning of the pledge

If we take it, there can be no turning back

for Muhammad is indeed the messenger of God
foretold to Jews in our city

So if anyone has doubt in this pledge, go now

and if you have no doubts then you do as I do

I pledge myself to the one and only God
and to you Muhammad, the messenger of God

He is of us and we are of him

Leave him bring his followers,
our brothers, to use, to Medina

It was a journey that changed the world

The Hijrah of flight to Medina

Only 70 people split up into small groups
walking 250 miles of desert

yet, so profound with the consequences
so lasting with the effects of this walk

that from it the muslims take their calendar

In this moment, Islam found its future

Muhammad himself stayed in Mecca

in the greatest danger until all his followers had left safely

Muhammad has become a nation,

he has received a city, entering into pledges and treaties

and you Salool who claim to be king of Medina
lost the kingdom last night while you were in bed

you should worry about yourself Abu Sufian

Every time you trade a whif of perfume of the city,
you must creep past that man in Medina

he is across your merchantile throats as we speak

And what do you intend to do?

l intend to wait

And how long will you wait?

Till you and the rest of Arabia remove him
to save your way of life

and while you wait?

I should accept his call of course

To think I will give him my birth-rite...
I will not..

Medina is worth the conversion

Hypocrisy

Of course, its the healthy hypocrisy

King Salool, why put your head on the floor
5 times a day praying? I don't believe you

He may not have to.
Well, we do know we should have done it before

kill Muhammad

Come!
Come and see

They say that practice leads to perfection

7 young men each from a different family,
my own son Ikrima is with them

they will stab him together

If the responsibility for his death
is shared, where lies the guilty? My idea

I'm not sure I'm part of it

Muhammad's body contains too much
his mind, his words

But it is an ingenious solution

And a final one

No

Ali, his cousin, laid there to die for him?
Who are we fighting?

They cannot go far, all the tracks are watched
We must take to the desert

Bakka will give 100 camels to the man

who brings back Muhammad
or his head

Look for 3 of them
Muhammad, Abu Bakr and Uriqat, the Bidune guide

What is it?

These are drains of camel
Maybe two days, that from the city

Why are you here?

Medina is to the north

They made the tracks, not I

Know much? Traveling West?

I know my art

They say that you can track a bird by smelling the air

we go with him

he may be in that cave over there

Muhammad, if you come out, we will
take you to Mecca alive

Muhammad, come out

they cannot be in there
This web is unbroken

And these pigeons
they would not build

we were wrong to follow them
we should have gone north

Let's move then
we still have time to head them off

A few threads of a spider's web
was all that was then

between Muhammad and murder
But he was a man not to be killed

The Bidune guide led him
and his companion Abu Bakr in their escape

through untracked spaces of the desert
and the heat of the June days

At Medina, his followers waited with their welcome ready

but in great fear for his journey

anything? No nothing

this shows that he is only a man

no man can survive that heat

There! I see them! Look!

Run and hide! I might be obliged
to free you as a gesture

Welcome to the city of Medina, the blessed,
your city, the messenger of god

You will stay with me, messenger of god,
I have the best house in Medina

you'll give me the honor of keeping you

Stay with me!

Please! Please! Please! How can the Prophet
choose between so many welcomes?

Where God guides his camel to stop,
there he will build his house

All agreed

We turn Quaswa, his camel loose

and where Quaswa sits, the Prophet stays

Clever man!

A choice made by camel
can offend no one

Here we will build the house of the Prophet

And our first meeting place,
a prayer house

the first mosque of Islam, here!

Repair and Synch by
komag

What's got the prophet to start doing it?
carrying bricks?

Give me that Look, you are doing too much,
please go and sit down we will do it

Look! He went for more

"Work is a worship" he says

he's 53 years old

How old are you?

There is something missing.
Maybe a bell to call people in

the Christians use a bell

what about a horn, like the Jews?

A drum?

There's too much blood in a drum

Why not the human voice
as in Omar bin Kattab's vision?

The Prophet agrees?

he means you, Bilal

me?

You have a good voice, use it!
climb up there!

Brothers, today a man of Medina
will embrace a man of Mecca

Each will share half and half,
reach out, embrace your neighbor and brother

I'm tired of the politics of kissing slaves

Read this

The prophet should concern himself with the after-world

What is my son?

Praying like a horse

does it burn your hands?
It's not upon us to burn down the house

he's making laws like a king.
He's declared that loyalty to Islam

is more than loyalty to tribal family

What?

All muslims are next of kin to one-another?

Don't be mislead by that...
They must change the nature of the tribes before that

The danger is here, the quality:
a man's neighbour is as good as himself

The Lunatic means it

Jews and Christians
have equal rights with Muslims,

the Jews who attach themselves to a common wealth
will be protected

Women have rights of inheritance... Rights

Next, he will be giving the camel rights

He has! the lunatic has!
You can't overload them

he's remaking a city, my city...

damn him..
He's taken our sons from us, he took the children, our future from us. His rights are wrongs

no more...
This time there will not be any regret

it will take everything of value they left in Mecca

their rugs, their houses, their silver
and with it, large of caravans to Damascus

My friends, listen to me!
I have news from Mecca

everything you have left behind is gone

the Thieves! Abu Bakr's shops,
the prophet's house... sold

Every cup or piece of cloth,
every rag or bone

you ever owned is thrown on the market

You are a people of nothing.
Don't you even fight for what you own?

Who talks of the fight?

What other way is there, Hamza?

When the Prophet says Fight!,
we fight, now he says Peace!

Exactly

you are a peace loving people
up to your necks and fore bearers

go back to work!

We have to defend ourselves.

You are the Messenger of god.
Yet, they mock, abuse and plunder us and we do nothing

In the pathage of war, we are pathetic

But they are led by greed, we are
led by god and you

I know how you hate the sword, but
we have to fight

they've stolen our property, they are taking it to Damascus

right past our own door our door.
I say, by God turn back

I'm sorry I got carried away

Its pounding in my head

Please, fight them!

But look at the sun!

It's not the time of prayer

It is newly revealed by god to his messenger

Fight, but fight in the way of god
against those who fight against you

Drive them out of the places from where they drove you out,

for persecution is worse than slaughter

Fight them until persecution is no more

and religion is God,
but if they stop, let there be no more war

for god never loves the slaughters of wars

so, fight in the way of god
against those who fight against you

God is great!
God is great! God is great!

These are the disciplines that the Prophet
puts upon you

you may not harm a woman, a child or any old person!

you may not harm cripples

you may not harm the man that works in the field

You may not cut down trees

Strike only at those who have expelled you

who have stolen your rights and
riched themselves with your possession!

now, to the wells of Badr

News from Medina!

Arms... Arm yourself... Arm yourself...

defend your wealth

Muhammad has come out of Medina to attack the great caravan

- How many men?
-300 Two horses

- We have more than 100 horses
How many camels?

- 17
- We will bring 117

- And wine,
20 of mine with wine.. we will make a feast of it

That is a war I'd like to fight

a war we can not lose!

ride to Abu Sufian's caravan.
tell him to turn towards Badr

We will join forces tomorrow
near sources of Beder

Wells of Badr... here

Muhammad's march... here

my charge of the caravan.... here
One day's march...

meet them at the wells

I don't like it

There is too much of Mecca on my caravan to be risked

put out the fires...
hold the camels...

We are turning west, away from the wells

away?
you can't...

You must meet them at Badr

we can bring them down like raw eggs

- If I run all night, I'll be out of
Muhammad's reach by morning

Where is your honor, Abu Sufian?

Honor?

- My honor's on the backs of my camels
Yes, I run...

Muhammad has occupied the wells

- he has moved directly into our line of march

- Abu Sufian has broken camp
He's moving west, away from Badr

- The Caravan is safe
So, there is no need to fight

not fight?

- If we fight, we will start blood feuds between brothers

between father and son, you mean

Hudaifa, your own son is with them.
He should have been with....

Mecca is greater than your family

Walid, your second son.
he is your true blood

I say: Fight! We stand in the present
and the future will look after itself

Utbah is not a coward

we will finish them tomorrow.
We fight! we fight!

are you finished?

All right! Take your positions!

Each man to his own place

Go back to your columns

move it. move back

So Muhammad's filled the wells

Now everyone will have to fight for this

we fight

Brothers! we hold the wells

we stand in the name of god and his messenger.
we wait

BATTLE OF BADR......
Send us your champions

Who are you?

we expect our peers and our equals

Come back!

my brother, Shaiba
my son Walid and myself

Not you! Ubaida and I and Ali

Are we your equals?

There is only one God and
Muhammad is His messenger

Archers! Advance!

Archers!

Still! stretch!

stretch

stretch

Archers!

Archers back...

they are regrouping

forward!

ready

Lancers!

God is great!

Attack! God is great!

Umaya!

Umaya!

Bilal!

God is great!

God is great!

The Prophet is seeing you!
You are not to rob or try to perish this

And if a rogue does, cut him loose.
I said, cut them loose and give them water

and share your food, equal mouth-fulls.
And if they walk, walk beside them

Any prisoner who can teach 10 Muslims
to read will go free

Why don't they go away?

Because, they blame me Hind,
whatever it is, good or bad

I should have joined them
and drown in the wells of bitter with them

But, I saved the caravan and our future with it

The sing at me?

Why sing my father and my brother is not with me?

Do you think I need you to remind me?

Muhammad, Ali, Hamza!
With my nails, Hamza,

I will give you mesher and mesher, with my nails...
killer, cut throater, butcher

murdering beast, you slaughtered my father

Hamza! I will hunt, like a lion

I will make Hamza, my lion, my prey.
And when you are dead Hamza, I will cut your heart out,

taste the blood, cut in pieces

I forbit this weiling.
this cannot go on

What we should do, we will do

we will call in our allies,
lead the new one against them

This time, we will prepare it.
We'll plan it

Hamza!

come to prayer...
come to prayer...

come to victory...
come to victory...

God is great

There is no god only God

Is it a plague?

what kind of an upside down town have we come in to?

You could fill your pockets very nicely here

No merchant is minding his shop

God is minding the shop

where do you come from?

Yemen

did you stop in Mecca?

It is on the road

you didn't answer my question

did you stop in Mecca?

long enough to rest my camels

Camels rest better in Mecca
than anywhere in the world

Yes What is the word on the desert?

Oh... It is bad for you

they are gathering..
Each young man with a sword is on his way to Mecca

Our strength is here

Do not underestimate them.
they are summoning up their courage. In Mecca there is music in every house

Abbisinian slave, watch him, he is good, vicious, watch him

I'll free you. give you your weight in silver,

and your height in silk
for one throw like this

So they've come at last
We'll know how many soon enough

It's a big army

3,000 men, hundreds of horses

I bet them at Badr

That was a year ago

They've come to revenge Badr

Go and get your swords!

Soldiers of Mecca!
Blood master blood

avenge the dead of Badr

BATTLE OF UHUD....

There is Hamza can you see him?

He is your fortune

Ubada! Those horse-men on the flank out there

they are replaced

they are under Khalid.
Khalid...

I often thought of that yound man

Hamza!

Yes!

Prophet asks if you have noticed those horse-men

Yes I have. I don't like them

he's sending our 50 archers to watch them

no matter what happens,
the archers must hold off those horse-men

Zaid, tell the Prophet that we are ready

What do you think Hamza?

Besides their numbers, I'd say its a fair fight

we see them and they see us

what faces me has never frightened me

All praise be Hubar!

When Muhammed gives the word, we'll go to them

Hamza!

Weapons ready

we march now!

attack

they've killed Hamza!

tackle them

Fight! Fight!

This is a moment of victory

Running away from us. Let's get the loot

Stand where you are told to stand

come back to your positions

all of you, come back!

Its a road

Their centry is gone

We've lost the battle, Khalid

Not yet

hold on

Where is the prophet?

Muhammad is dead

I saw him fall

No No! He's alive! Find him!

back. back to the mountains

halt

I thought we were beaten!
Now, victory is yours, Khalid!

We have no victory until
we've finished Muhammad

he's up in those rocks

We've finished our business. we've avenged Badr

But we can end Islam and him forever!

Some of his fenatics are still with him!

They have the advantage of the mountains

The risk is too high

Muhammad, listen

A day for a day! the day of Uhub for the day of Badr

Our dead have answered to your dead

Our dead are in Paradise,
your dead are in hell fire

Hamza! Hamza! do you hear me Hamza?
ok You know that I am with you, I, Hind!

do you remember anything Hamza?
How you killed my father and my brother?

now you too are dead!
now, my heart is light

do you hear Hamza? Light!

But I haven't finished with you!
Death is too small

Wahshi, Cut him open, cut him!

They lost a battle and what do they do?

They came home and dig the ground harder

They are mad

I agree with you!

They defy reason,
they are even happy they lost

god send the defeat they say
to trial in their faith

Oh yes! they are fighting with the sky!

They'll get what they want!

They want Mecca!

They'll get Mecca

when we see the stars at noon....

immm... don't underestimate him, I learned that on my cost

my friend, Mecca is more than their home

It's where God spoke to man

Mecca is like a home-sickness to the soul

This year they are going as pilgrims

What?

Unarmed!

Unarmed?

Abu Sufian will slaughter them in the dessert

If you believe in God as they do,
it might be possible not to get slaughtered

But I agree with you, they probably will be

Be still, do not let them provoke you.
That is what they want. stand firm

Peace be upon you!

Prophet says: All who love God

must renew their Oaths to him

under the tree....

They've sent someone else!

Its Salool.
That means we might come to an agreement

Muhammad, you have been given conditions of truce
between yourself and Mecca

Have you agreed to them yet?

What is this?

In the name of God, the most gracious

Who is this new God they call gracious?

I do not know him. strike him out

And I cannot agree with this...
"Muhammad, the messenger of God?"

If I have thought you were the messenger of God

I would not have fought you

Make it "Muhammad, the son of Abdullah
agrees with Suheil, the son of Amr"

That is the more fact

well, so I understand

good, that is better

Now, it is agreed

that you do not continue your pilgrimage,

you must turn around and go home

Mecca is home

However, you may continue your
pilgrimage next year

and for 3 days only

in and out.
we also agree to the truce

for 10 years...
During that time you will not attack any

tribe or ambush any caravan

or any individual associated with us and vice versa

If you injure any one of us, the truce ends
and vice versa. Is that clear?

10 years... 10 years of peace....

We need that time

We will use that time

These letters, from Muhammad, the messenger of God

to rulers of the world

Call the world to Islam.
to Heraclius, emperor of Byzantium

Kisra, Emperor of Persia,
Mephocus, patriarch of Alexandria

God is great

There are no different races in Islam and

Arab is not superior to foreign

not a white man superior to a black.
All return equally to god

Unless you desire for your neighbour,

what you desire for yourself.
You don't have faith

A man goes to bed with his belly full,

while his neighbor is hungry.
He isn't a Muslim

The Ink of a scholar is holier than
the blood of a martyr

A man reading is handsome in the side of god

So, learn to read and when you have learned

teach

The people of the book,

Jews with their Bible, the Christians with their testament

must be respected by you for their books likewise came from god

you must all think of Muhammad as more than a man

He was collecting firewood one day.
Let me do it, I said

Why? He said,
You're the prophet of god,

you can't go round scratching for firewood

But he looked at me mumbling

God does not like the man
who considers himself above

other men, he said.
So, I laid back and watched him

Suddenly he stopped.
he stood to his full height and came to me

Yes!

I am the Prophet of god, he said,
but even I do not know what will become of me

Arm. have you come to take me again?

No

I've come to ask you to take me

I witness that there is only one god
and that Muhammad is His messenger

May god forgive me the times I have fought against you

lslam does the way with all that went before it

I'm sorry, I came here wearing...

Here are my jewels,

what they are worth

I give to the poor

And may I offer you my ?

Yes

But you were the bitterest sword against Islam

Now by the will of god,
I will be the raised sword of god

Ah, its all easy to god

Just as he might gain in losing
be may lose in winning

2 years agon we thought we were beaten
when we had to sign that truce

Look at us now! charging from victory to victory in the hearts of men

What's that?

Abu Sufian is coming

Why am I insulted like this?

Abu Sufian

I expect some courtesy

we are not at war

we have a truce

I've come to speak to Muhammad
Where is he?

he is in the mosque

Muhammad we did not break the truce

I have come to re-affirm the truce

I speak for Mecca

Muhammad, why do you turn from me?

Don't go

Muhammad, don't go

Biduns broke the truce, not us.
The night was dark

I am here to testify that the night was dark
Baara! This is your city

Hudaifa, you are my kin
and descendant

why must you be hard?

I am Mecca, I am the leader of Mecca

Why am I insulted like this?

Because you keep no promise
and respect no pledge

I've heard what I thought
I'd never hear

Abu Sufian asking for pity

To be out-fought, out-fought

who we knew to be a one time shepherd

you saw that shepherd's religion grow from a speck (dust)

speck was in my eye

I could see nothing

Tell Mecca that the gods are dead.
It is useless to resist god

Travel fast or every man here

will curse behind you

Its you who have broken the truce

For tonight will be 10,000 men from every tribe

Now we can fight them. you are back

we will close the streets, and defend from the houses

Its no use

There are thousands of them and they are joined by more

You coward!

Hind, go home!

You coward! Are you the leader of Mecca?

Look at yourself!

You are broke, they swallowed you and sput you out

When my father and brother die, my husband ran away?

You go home! You!

We can not resist! Mecca is taken

No, no!

We are to camp here for the night

We can see Mecca even through the mountains!

So many fires, I can not count them

It is very beautiful

When we drove them out of Mecca, I did not know
that he carried Mecca with him

we can smell the bread they are baking

Yes

It means they don't intend to plonder,
though I do hope at least thats what it means

They don't want blood on our walls and doorsteps

I can bargain with that

Take me to him!

So you are giving us your city

you offer me no bread

I understand

You may decide to kill me

Say what you have come to say

I saw your fires, the men around them

and I know what power you put into them

We can no longer resist Muhammad

Now if you agree

you dare to come here and ask for conditions

Isn't it yet time enough for you to recognize who Muhammad is?

Muhammad, there is still doubt in my heart

If I were to cut off your head, it would remove all your doubts

Khalid,

there is no composion in religion

A man may take many years
or only need minutes

its god who decides the time!

So respect his doubts

You're a black slave, you have the best school

I am only what God has given me

Yes

The Gods that I worshipped,

have never been in use

It would have helped me

I require no composion.
There is one God,

and you are the messenger of god.
Now, let me go.

get inside

No doors may be broken down,
nothing plondered, nothing seized

no one abused, all behind closed doors are safe

All in hAbu Sufian's house are safe

All by the side of Kabbalah are safe

At least, he kept his word,
they haven't forced any door

He's stolen hearts, not walls.
Its a permanent victory

I dread going out

we must... we must in the end

were we so wrong?

The way we lived, yes. that was wrong
we were trapped in our own faults

our gods were less than us

Now there he is, making his entrance to the Kabbaah

In the name of god, most gracious, most merciful

God gave this house to Abraham to be a sacred place,

worship no other God but Him
and cleanse his house

so it was

Muhammad took no revenge and allowed all.
He declared Mecca a holy place

Noone may shed blood
or cut down a tree,

or kill a living thing in Mecca

Soon,

all Arabia was converted not only to the new worship
but to the new laws, manners,

attitudes contained in Islam

The Prophet had lived to see his work done,
and now he began to feel the nearness of death

One great act of his Prophet would remain

the setting of its seal

He called the people to him
and he spoke for the last time

His message was to surrender to god
and humanity to man

''Oh, mankind! Listen well!

I may not be with you much longer

the weak among you
feed them and watch what you eat

Dress them as you are dressed,

you will meet your god
and he will call you

to count your actions

Let those who are present warn those who are absent

You are all are descendant from Adam
and the best among you

is he who most regards god

Think deeply about what I say.
Let all your feuds be abolished

you must know that every Muslim

is the brother of every other Muslim
and all Muslims are brothers of one-another

Between Muslims, there are no races and no tribes

Not must you take anything from your brother
except what is given freely

Do not oppress and do not be oppressed

O my people!

I'm but a man,

It may be that the angel of death will visit me soon
and death will overtake me

But I have left you a book,

revealed by god,

The Qur'an, which is light and guidance

Now he repeated to the people
the final repetition of the Qur'an,

the sea of determination

not Muhammad's words, but god's word

''This day I have perfected your religion for you

and completed my favour to you

and I have chosen for you Islam as your religion''

ON June the 8th 632

in his 63rd year

Muhammad died

Many of his followers
could not believe the fact

How can such a man die?

But Abu Bakr, the Prophet's friend
stood up in the mosque:

"If anyone worships Muhammad,

Let him know that Muhammad is dead

but who worships god

Let him know that god is alive and can not die''

They buried Muhammad beside his mosque in Medina

But the religion he preached
found its place in the heart of man

It endured. It multiplied.

Still to Mecca, they come, the mankind

The people of Islam dressed in their pilgrim white

all equal before god,
all united in this place of prayer

Each individual soul joined in a community of worship
... "ONE GOD"
