The Beautiful Example (اسوۂ حسنہ)

The Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him) is the uswa hasana — the beautiful example — for all of humanity in every aspect of life: worship, family, commerce, governance, and character. The Qur'an establishes this (al-Ahzab 33:21). Following this example is not merely a pious preference but the very definition of being a Muslim.

A Film About the Prophet Musa (موسیٰ کے بارے میں فلم)

Regarding a film made about the Prophet Musa (Moses, peace be upon him): Hazrat expressed his displeasure at any such depiction of the prophets. The sanctity of the prophets demands that they not be depicted in films or theatrical representations. Such depictions inevitably involve compromise, distortion, and indignity that no believer should countenance.
