The Show Al Azhar Doen't Want You To See

AlHassan Wal Hussien, is an epic TV drama set to play on most Arab TVs this Ramadan season. The show tells the history behind the divide in Islam between the two sects of Islam. Sunni Vs. Shiite. It's a bold TV drama that talks about something often brings tension, the story of Ali vis Moawya and Ali's son Hassan and Hussien, the grandsons of the prophet.

Al Azhar does not like this TV show and wants to ban it from all Egyptian networks. Even thought the show has half a dozen of Fatwas in it favor from figures like Yousef Al Qaradwi and others. A Shiite imams were also consulted on the show to incorporate more details about the struggle and the biggest Fetna in the history of Islam.

Some, don't like the show because it featured two actors as Hassan and Hussein, something that has never been done before. The likes of images of the prophet household has not been approved by Al Azahar who maintains that one cannot features prophets of the house of the prophet.

MBC, Rotana, Tahrir, Al Nahar, and Al Hayat are among the networks that will air the show and they all have recived letters not to air it. While the debate will continue, the show will go on.
