WAM Dubai, May 30, 2009 â The final episode of the largest-ever Western television production on the history of Islam was aired this week amid positive critical acclaim from scholars and some of Europeâs most influential media.
The three-part documentary, entitled Morgenland (German for Orient), explores the 1,400 year-old history of the Islamic faith, from its beginnings in the early 7th century CE to today. It seeks to educate viewers about the actual meaning of the religion by using an impartial, objective approach, and thus rectifying the often distorted image with which Islam is associated by many in Western countries.
Translation of the questions asked:
1. Religious or political conflicts
2. Is there a unified Islamic world
3. Pluralistic Islam
4. Knowledge for people in mountainous regions
5. Education of women
6. Training in the west end
