The producer has generously uploaded all episodes on OsmanOnline.live for free with English subtitles. You can watch it on OsmanOnline.club in HD with super speed and quality. I strongly suggest you watch this high-quality TV series.
Excellent Work, Realistic Rather Than Superstitious
Once I started the series, I could not stop until I watched all the episodes. The excellent work done by the director, producer, and the wonderful acting of the cast has made it unforgettable. Some people might criticize the personification of the companions (R.A), but in my view, whoever watches the whole series will grow to love them even more. This series is highly recommended for non-Muslims who want to learn how Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) trained ordinary people to conquer half of the world within a decade while maintaining high morals, character, justice, and ideal administration. The series enlightens their way of life in a realistic human manner rather than superstitious.
The Story of Islam
This is not just a series; it is the story of Islam. You will find the life of Umar (R.A), most of the life of Muhammad (PBUH), Ali (R.A), Abu Bakr (R.A), and some of Uthman (R.A), among many other companions. The series covers the birth and spread of Islam. If you are interested in Islam, you should definitely watch this series. The actors, especially Samer Ismail and Ghassan Massoud, have done their best. The war scenes are well done, and the historical characters, places, and costumes are very realistic. Once I started watching, I couldn’t stop. Many series like this should be produced; there is a huge treasure lying in the history of Islam, with many stories that can be made into movies or series.
An Epic Production
This is probably the greatest epic made for TV ever and would rival many movies of this genre. The acting and scope of the world are mind-blowing. The art direction, acting, and incredible sets are as breathtaking as the massive scope of the series. It’s a wonderful series and the most expensive TV production with a budget of 200 million SAR. It contains 30 episodes, each of which is epic. The series also gives a depiction of the birth of Islam, focusing on historical events. It’s accurate in presenting the birth of Islam as most people today learn it, and it is not a propaganda piece. Its production and cinematography are much better than high-budget HBO TV series.
Inspiring and Educational
This series is inspiring, showcasing real-life heroes in action and offering a lot to learn from. As quoted, “The production explicitly showcases the path of ‘Al Farrouq’ and the characteristics of equality, good governance, justice, tolerance, wisdom, compassion, and leadership, among others. It further sheds light on the personal values of the Khalifa.”
Superb Direction and Acting
Awesome direction and superb acting by almost all the actors make it feel like you are back in those days. One of the best Islamic productions ever made, the series starts with the life of Umar (R.A) in pre-Islamic Arabia and continues through his life during the mission of the Prophet (PBUH), his conversion to Islam, the caliphate of Abu Bakr (R.A), and finally, the caliphate of Umar (R.A) himself. The series is as accurate as possible without showing the Prophet (PBUH).
Emphasis on Islamic Teachings
One of the most positive points of the series is its emphasis on the teachings of Islam and how they changed the society of the time from days of ignorance and injustice to the justice of Islam. It shows the efforts and sacrifices of the companions of the Prophet in spreading the message of Islam. The series really touches the heart and increases the love for the companions.
Conclusion
In the end, although the series may not be perfect in every sense, it is a source of much good. It is a series not to be missed.
