Hamza: Mohammed, when I hunt the desert at night, I know God is not kept in a house.
Narrator: Unless you desire for your neighbour, what you desire for yourself. You don't have faith A man goes to bed with his belly full, while his neighbor is hungry. He isn't a Muslim

Jaafar: The people of the book, Jews with their Bible, the Christians with their testament must be respected by you for their books likewise came from god
Narrator: You must all think of Muhammad as more than a man. He was collecting firewood one day. Let me do it, I said Why? He said, You're the prophet of god, you can't go round scratching for firewood. But he looked at me mumbling. God does not like the man who considers himself above other men, he said. So, I laid back and watched him. Suddenly he stopped. He stood to his full height and came to me. Yes! I am the Prophet of god, he said, but even I do not know what will become of me

One great act of his Prophet would remain the setting of its seal. He called the people to him and he spoke for the last time. His message was to surrender to god and humanity to man. Oh, mankind! Listen well! I may not be with you much longer the weak among you feed them and watch what you eat. Dress them as you are dressed, you will meet your god and he will call you to count your actions. Let those who are present warn those who are absent. You are all are descendant from Adam and the best among you is he who most regards god. Think deeply about what I say. Let all your feuds be abolished you must know that every Muslim is the brother of every other Muslim and all Muslims are brothers of one-another. Between Muslims, there are no races and no tribes. Not must you take anything from your brother except what is given freely. Do not oppress and do not be oppressed. O my people! I'm but a man, It may be that the angel of death will visit me soon and death will overtake me. But I have left you a book, revealed by god, The Qur'an, which is light and guidance. Now he repeated to the people the final repetition of the Qur'an, the sea of determination not Muhammad's words, but god's word This day I have perfected your religion for you and completed my favour to you and I have chosen for you Islam as your religion
Abu-Talib: Men see the world too well from a mountain
Hamza: The Prophet is seeing you! You are not to rob or try to perish this. And if a rogue does, cut him loose. I said, cut them loose and give them water and share your food, equal mouth-fulls. And if they walk, walk beside them. Any prisoner who can teach 10 Muslims to read will go free.
Ammar: His eyes are shut but his heart is open
