Don’t get misled by a bearded actor playing the role of a religious leader

In films, actors often perform roles of kings, warriors clergies villains, leaders— and even prophets.
Charlton Heston played the role of Ben Hur in the film of the same title, and that of Moses in The Ten Commandments. Another relatively unknown actor Jeffries played the role of Jesus Christ. Richard Burton played Becket, and Peter O Toole played Henry. Prithivi Raaj played Alexander the Great when young and King Akbar when grew aged.
Dilip Kumar played Prince Salim and is reported to have stated that for years after this role he used to feel like the Mughal prince— having developed royal feelings alongwith royal mannerisms.
In “The Message” Anthony Quinn played Hazrat Amir Hamza, and did so with remarkable grace.
But none of these actors became what they were made to play in the costumes and the makeup suitable for the characters they depicted.
In our society BEARD has a special symbolic value for piety. It is because our Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) and many of his companions sported beards. It should be remembered here that Abu Jehl and Abu Lehb too sported beards. Thus a beard was never a point of difference between a Muslim and a non-Muslim. The point of difference was Assalm-o-Alaikam and Wa alaykumassalam. The Faith.
Don’t get misled by a bearded actor playing the role of a religious leader. He may be a good orator as actors often are. He may have very impressive words and lines to speak, as actors too are trained to speak.
But Charlton Heston was not Moses. Nor was Jeffries, Christ. Nor Anthony Quinn was Hazrat Amir Hamza (RA).
Those who are hate merchants and preach violence against and death to those not in agreement with them, can’t be men of God. They are enemies of the Faith of Peace and Love that God’s Last and Greatest Prophet brought to mankind.
The destruction and deaths they are causing in the name of their phoney love for the Prophet of Peace and Love (PBUH) will not go unpunished by Allah.
On the earth it is the responsibility of the State to deal with them with an iron hand.
