In the name of Allah, Most Beneficent, Most Merciful
Brothers and Sisters: Assalam alaikum wrwb,
You know the storm of protests going throughout the Muslim world regarding the Anti-Islam movie about Prophet Muhammad SAW. Even YouTube has refused to remove the video and Muslims are upset about this.
This movie has polluted the internet with lies and accusations. May Allah guide YouTube owners to do the right thing. But for us, here is a very powerful positive action plan. Let us spray the internet with the perfume of truth and overcome the filth that is spread by others.
I invite each one of you to make at least one 3 min to 5 min clip on the life of the Prophet pbuh and post it on the YouTube.
Here is a way to show your love for the Prophet, to face Allah on the Day of Judgment and meet the Prophet pbuh on the Day of Judgment and tell him that O Prophet pbuh, I tried to do something to spread your message on the media.
Muslim schools, organizations, and Islamic centers can do a marvelous job here. They can do it at a collective level. Distribute 1000’s of sayings of the Prophet pbuh among children or among your members. Let each of them select 2 to 3 hadith or a life story of the Prophet on a given topic.
Give a project to each one or a group of 2 to 3 and let them come up with the best way to produce the clip. Let parents support their children in preparing the clip. If you cannot do it, pay your organization or center to do it on your behalf!
Let every adult and every child participate in this noble project. Let every Muslim stand up and upload something on the YouTube, daily motion, vimeo, etc and let us populate the media with the fragrance of the true message.
Let the world search Prophet Muhammad, neighbors on Youtube or other media and get 50 clips. Prophet Muhammad, kindness and 100 clips, Prophet Muhammad, parents, and get 100 clips…
If you know 2 languages, do it in both languages. On every topic let there be 100s of clip about Muhammad pubh on the internet in every world language. Prophet Muhammad – Kindness – French. Prophet Muhammad – Kindness – Tagalog, Prophet Muhammad – Kindness – Tamil and so on.
Show the world who the Prophet was and what was his message.
Don’t complain about your voice or your style. I say: If your mom and dad are accused of false crimes in a clip on YouTube, will you not stand up and say the truth. Will you wait for someone with a good voice to record it for you. Don’t you love your Prophet pbuh more than your parents? Then prove it. Let your heart speak out.
To encourage you, we plan to give 15 awards of 100$ each; and 30 awards of 50$ each.
How to enter the contest:
- Create your video about our beloved prophet and upload it on YouTube;
- Leave a comment on this post with your name, email and link to your video on YouTube;
- We will also promote your videos on our Facebook page, inshaAllah.
Three rewards for each category:
- Life history or Seerah of the Prophet pbuh;
- Sayings (hadith) of the Prophet pbuh;
- the Qur’an which was revealed to the Prophet S.
One reward for every age group:
- Primary school kids (parents/teachers need to help them; that is good for parents too)
- Secondary school boys (parents/teachers need to help them)
- High school students
- College students
- Adults
Therefore we have 3*5=15 groups with 3 awards for each group, a total of 45 awards.
45 awards = 15 awards of $100 each + 30 awards of $50 each
Deadline: 15th of November, 2012
Both brothers and sisters and boys and girls can participate in this competition. Just make sure that you follow Islamic standards and the material is authentic. You can submit as many clips as you like.
Upload your clip on YouTube and promote it among your family and friends and submit your url, name, email address, age, and category on the link shown here. On 15th Nov, we will check the likes and the counts and give the rewards. Whether you join the competition or not, join the campaign to fill up the social media with the message of the Prophet pbuh.
Don’t forget the objective: Present different aspects of Prophet’s life in the best way possible to the whole world, especially our non-Muslim brothers and sisters.
Read a book on the Seerah of Prophet pbuh, study the Qur’an, visit websites, talk to scholars, with graphics, PowerPoint slides, flowcharts or without them; see how you can remove the misconceptions about the Prophet, choose what you love about his sayings, choose a story from his life, etc. There are hundreds of ways to do it.
I appeal to you to spread this message to everyone you know and let us fill the media with the true message of the Prophet, pbuh. The more you spread this message the better the chance that we have more clips on the YouTube and the internet.
We complain of media such as TV channels, newspapers, and magazines on which we have no control. But when it comes to the YouTube and other media, nobody is stopping you to come forward except yourself. So, no more excuses!
The liars are spreading lies and insults against our most beloved Messenger S. Are you going to just sit and watch? Pray to Allah, stand up, and just do it.

Assalaamu alaikum wa rahmatullahim wa barakatahu,
JazakAllah khair for this. This is such a wonderful move, and so close to what the sahabah would have done in a situation like this. May Allah subhanahu wa taala bless you for taking this step. I am going to forward this to maximum number of people and get started with the video right away. I have never made one, but will try my best. I thank Allah subhanahu wa taala for blessing us with this oppurtunity.
Wa alaykum sister Ayesha, we are looking forward to your video then. InshaAllah, we will promote on our Facebook page to reach more people.
Assalamualaikum
Why are you using the same youtube for uploading your videos .
Regards
As-salaam alaikum, As Muslims we are aware of the physical and verbal abuse the Prophet Muhammed received, and more importantly HOW he responded. This YouTube thing is nothing new, it is merely a vehicle that WE can also utilize and publicize Prophet Muhammed responses. YouTube is not the enemy, ignorance is our enemy. Lack of know how to respond as the Prophet Muhammed did is our fault. Let us join forces and intellectually spank their BUTT through every media, the physical battle is for another fight not this one.
Because it will not hurt anyone.
We love our most beloved prophet than all our near and dear ones and we cannot tolerate even an iota of disrespect towards him (SAW)
we strongly condemn the malicious hate propaganda against our ummah and our beloved prophet(SAW)
Respected Dr.Abdulazeez Abdulraheem,
May! Allah Accept your efforts & our contribution.
Kindly keep it up.

Faisal

Wa alaykum assalam, you can use this page: https://understandquran.com/donations.html
May Allah accept your efforts.
Jazak Allah Khair,
May Allah give us the strength to stand up and do the needfull in these trying times to elevate the name of our beloved prophet (SAW.) Ameen.
Minimum we can do is to follow and adhere strictly to the way of Rasul Allah (SAW.)
Can we bring new friends (who are not praying) to Fajr tomorrow?
All the historical men on this earth have recognized the Great of the Greatest Man on this earth to be Prophet Muhammad Sallahu Alaihi Wassallam.

Assalmoalaikum, alhamdullah you are doing very great bright work for umma, really I am greatfull to you for your contribution inshallah allah will reward for the same.
I want to tell one thing that, what ever the circumtances coming is because of our aamal. As there is hadees(mafoom) saying that, on the day of miraj Messenger of Allah [SAWW](PBUH) saw something going up and comingdown, then ask jabriel(AS). Jabriel (AS) replies the upgoing is amal of uma and dowcoming is allah tala faislee based on aamal.
So we have to follow islam in all aspects and hold the quran as our guidance and do dawa for the same as its every person responsibility. Inshallah, Allah will open the doors for umma to be succeed in duniya and aaqhirath.
Jazak Allah Khair
Dear Brother,
Assalaamu Alaikum WRWB,
A simple but effective move, insha-Allah. But, how to make a video clip of 3 to 4 mins. length, and how to upload it to Youtube.com?
It would be very useful and better for people like me, if someone post guidelines on this.
Jazaakallaahu Khair,
Wassalaamu Alaikum WRWB

Salam brother,
To upload On Youtube, go to http://www.youtube.com…And You create a new account, Once created, You shall see on top right corner a Link Of UPLOAD…To upload on it just click and browse to the video….
You can use windows movie maker or any other demo app to create videos…
Just type in google, free video editors or photo to video…I used a demo of Wedding Album maker gold, and count on me it was damn easy…
Assalamualaikum wa rahmatullah
Alhamdulillah, all we can say is that Our Beloved Prophet Muhammed, peace be upon him, would be really smiling with this effort. He loved peace and he loved to choose the path that is peaceful and least aggressive. We love you Ya Rasulallah. Jazakallahukair Brother Abdulazeez

Assalamualaikum brother,
Its true that if you want to change the world, it is very important that you be the change. Mashallah this move is excellent to educate the media about our beloved Prophet (swt) and an opportunity to show the unity among the muslims Ummah. A diamond in the gutter does not stop its sparkle. Its the test for we muslims to spread the word of Allaah for which we have been sent. what is happening around is outcome of lethargic Ummah. May Allaah forgive us and guide us to propagate the truth to reach the world. Ameen.
The Chosen One
Unscrupulous people may try to tarnish the image of Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) without realizing that he is the Chosen One by the Almighty to deliver the universal message of ultimate truth underlying human lives. Neither media nor mania can ruffle the greatness of Prophet Muhammad who has been ranked first among the hundred greatest lives of humanity by the Non-Muslim analyst Michael H. Hart, in his book, “The 100 Most Influential”. Non-Muslim analysts of repute had unanimously proclaimed that none can match the caliber of Prophet Muhammad. This is because of the fact that Prophet Muhammad is not labeled so by any human intellect but it is the Almighty Who had conferred upon him the status of being the universal messenger of the basic truth with exemplary patience, perseverance and qualities so that humanity should emulate him (Al Quraan, 21:107; 7:157). Prophet Muhammad is chosen by the Almighty to be the undisputed leader of human civilization until Doomsday. None can advocate and demonstrate universal fraternity like him. Prophet Muhammad is indeed the ultimate and universal messenger of God not just for the Muslims but for the whole of humankind. He is the last in the legacy of 124,000 prophets of God, all of whom were chosen by the Almighty to preach the same message of truth like Prophet Muhammad but the previous prophets were only regional and not universal. Prophet Jesus (peace be upon him) preceded Prophet Muhammad with the divine mission to preach and guide the Jews alone toward the truth of Islam, and Prophet Jesus prophesized the advent of Prophet Muhammad as the universal messenger of God (Al Quraan, 61:6; Holy Bible, John 14:16 & 26; 16:7, 12–14). Gandhiji (Young India, 1922) had extolled Prophet Muhammad without mincing words. G.B Shaw, Lamartine, Leo Tolstoy and many such eminent writers/analysts had vouched for the simplicity and veracity in the sublime character of the universal prophet. Tom, Dick and Harry are only making a fool of themselves by degrading Prophet Muhammad whose personality is of the highest order, and clearly beyond the reach of satanic tentacles. The spectrum of his sublime nature shall always adorn the horizon of human civilization.

Great idea :-),
How greater and immensely more powerful would it be, if myself and we all really “Stand Up and Present Our Prophet” PRACTICALLY – in our daily lives, in our Manners/Behaviours, in our social/business dealings, in our societal norms, in our marriages, in our funerals, in our worships, in our dressing, in our eating, in our kindness, in our faces?
In my opinion, the biggest disgrace/disrespect to the Prophet is the open/hidden rejection by His so called “lovers/followers” in following His beautiful SUNNAHs.
May Allah guide us all, and bless us all with sincere love for Him and His Beloved (sall-Allah-u-‘Alayhi wa sallam)
assalamu aleykum,
we are a school in austria. We learned a hadith in school.
Then we filmed the hadith for this projekt.
Now you can watch it online:

There is no doubt that the movie was in bad taste and presented Prophet Mohammad in bad light. But the violence that is being carried out can never be justified. In my point of view, there has to be more tolerance.

Great inspiring international effort to reply bad with good… i love it! I love how you’re headquarters is in india, yet the change is international alhamdulillah ^_^
Here is my awesome video, the beginning is a poem and then connects to Quran revealed to rasulullah saws. I specifically thought of a nonMuslim watching it when creating it, since this is CRUCIAL if we want to end the hate against muslims around the world.

Here is my submission. College student. Quran category. This is an updated youtube video so you can ignore my previous post.

The Quran is composed of verses (Ayat) that make up 114 chapters (suras) of unequal length which are classified either as Meccan (المكية) or Medinan (المدينية) depending upon the place and time of their claimed revelation
Muslim schools, organizations, and Islamic centers are doing the very good job, it gives good message.
