Abstract

The representation of the Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him) in visual media warrants further in-depth study. Previous research has focused primarily on theoretical analyses of the Prophet’s portrayal, and few studies have compared his depiction in visual media with that in religious texts. This study employs a descriptive qualitative method and a comparative approach to analyze the representation of the Prophet Muhammad in the film The Message and Sirah Nabawiyah through an analysis of dialogue, narrative, and cinematic techniques. The results indicate that the film constructs the Prophet’s representation through intermediary characters, a narrator, and Western dramatic structures, whereas Sirah Nabawiyah focuses more on historical and religious aspects. This study concludes that the representation of the Prophet Muhammad is influenced by various factors, including the author’s cultural background.
