Making of Mohammed, Messenger of God Arabic.
It is the 7th Century in Mecca, where powerful leaders are in conflict with Mohammad who attacks their way of life and the injustice it produces. After seeing a vision of the Angel Gabriel, Mohammad calls the people of Mecca to cast aside the 300 idols of the Kaaba and worship only one God. Despite bitter opposition from the leaders of Mecca, Mohammand and his faithful followers meet secretly to listen to the revelations of the word of God. The leaders respond with persecution, forcing the moslems to leave Mecca and take sanctuary in Medina. After a revelation from God, Mohammad agrees to take arms against Mecca and battle until more people are converted to the emerging religion and ready to accept the prophet. Then, the idols of Kaaba are destroyed and the holy place is dedicated to the worship of one God. Mohammad is the Prophet... the Messenger of God. The Message is an epic film in the true sense of the word. It took six years to prepare and over one year to film. |
