Did anyone manage to catch it?? it was on channel 4. For those of you who didnt watch it, basically the theme of it was that a lot of Islamic history is unfounded and were doing what seemed to me very subtly attacking the quran citing that there is no physical evidence of the rasools existence and that Islamic history is hearsay for the most part. It was being told from a western scholars perspective. When i saw that it was channel 4 that was airing it, i knew right then what the narrative stance was gonna be with channel 4 being pro Israeli - but thats beside the point.
Re: Islam untold story
A lot of lies. I read somewhere on the internet that a Muslim organisation has set the guy who made it straight. I will try to find the link.

Islamic Education Research Academy. What an excellent response and posted overnight too! Please share on your facebook etc as a lot of our non-muslim and muslim friends need to know the other side of the ‘untold story’.

not to answer your question but just to give a proper context, saudia is not the place Quran talks about when it talks about Prophets and their nations. It's the area called Bilaad-ush-Shaam. In current times, it consists of Palestine (Palestine includes the occupied territory by Jews), Syriya (Sooriya), Jordan (Urdun), and Lebanon and I believe Iraq too but not sure about that (Prophet Ibraheem AS was from around that place).

Re: Islam untold story
Just because there is a Jew in charge it does not automatically mean he will be bias to Muslims.
Re: Islam untold story
If we do little search than we'll came to know that majority of these 'channels' are owned by anti-islamist i.e., jews including many others enemies of Islam.
They always broadcast that which they wanna us to believe and better for their interest.
Re: Islam untold story
Alot of Channel 4 documentaries in recent years can be seen as having a bias against Muslims, the BBC seem to be the opposite.
