"O ye who believe! Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that ye may (learn) self-restraint,...(Fasting) for a fixed number of days; but if any of you is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed number (Should be made up) from days later. For those who can do it (With hardship), is a ransom, the feeding of one that is indigent. But he that will give more, of his own free will,- it is better for him. And it is better for you that ye fast, if ye only knew...Ramadhan is the (month) in which was sent down the Qur'an, as a guide to mankind, also clear (Signs) for guidance and judgment (Between right and wrong). So every one of you who is present (at his home) during that month should spend it in fasting, but if any one is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed period (Should be made up) by days later. Allah intends every facility for you; He does not want to put to difficulties. (He wants you) to complete the prescribed period, and to glorify Him in that He has guided you; and perchance ye shall be grateful." (Al-Baqarah, 183-185) 

We followed the trail of the shadows. We pursued noble feelings, pure sorrow, harmless anger and universal truths on the silver screen which is dulled by violence and banality. While walking on film strips wrapped around the whole world, we became curious about how the Prophet Muhammad (pbuh) is treated as a topic in the cinema. We questioned how well the Prophet's life principles were carried over to the cinema by the ummah, which postpones the desire to see the Prophet until the next world and which intensely avoids imprisoning him in the shallow lines of an image.
