The King (I) (2019)

Breath-taking.

[10/10 · 27 September 2021]

A true masterpiece. Abolutely loved it. Great pacing, cinematography, and the performances were top notch. This is probably my favorite movie in the last decade and I mean that wholeheartedly.

And the music. Oh, the music....

Masar (2021)

A fun, ambitious, ambiguous thriller.

Really cool and fun thriller. Also a very impressive one considering the budget. I think it is a major improvement over the director's predecessors. If you have 30 minutes to kill, you might want to give this short a shot.

Farouk Omar (2012)

Awe-inspiring spectacle.

The overall atmospher in this series really brings you into seventh century Arabia. In terms of writing, direction, acting, cinematography, score, and set, this show is absolutely mindblowing. The elequent Fusha Arabic that is spoken, the effort put into each shot, the stunning cinematography and moving music makes this series the best Islamic series in my opinion. Also, rarely do you find a movie or TV series that depends largely on reliable historical established facts, thus avoiding criticism in terms of content. This series says it as it is, gives each character its due, and does not dwel into controversial territory. Every Muslim in the world (much less person) will enjoy this series. I highly recommend watching this show and learning about Caliph Omar (RA) and the beautiful religion of the greatest man in history, Prophet Muhammad (PBUH).
