HAMMAD: LEGACY OF A PROPHET tells the story of the 7th century prophet who changed world history in 23 years, and continues to shape the lives of more than 1.2 billion people. Three years in the making, the film takes viewers not only to ancient Middle Eastern sites where Muhammad’s story unfolds, but into the homes, mosques and workplaces of some of America’s estimated seven million Muslims to discover the many ways in which they follow Muhammad’s example.

Here are some snippets:
“The Islamic prophet Muhammad has become a target in a post-Sept. 11, 2001, world where people are looking for easy answers to explain a religion that is followed by 1.2 billion people.”
“‘Muhammad: Legacy of a Prophet’ succeeds in dispelling the false myths that Falwell and others would like to propagate.”
“Riveting, informative and inspiring, ‘Muhammad: Legacy of a Prophet’ should almost be required viewing for non- Muslims. It sets the record straight about a man who has been demonized by those who know little to nothing about the substance of his life or his message.”
