> tfw no kino about Muslim invasions of Syria and Egypt set from point of view of religious devout Byzantine soldier.

Why are popular culture depictions of the initial Muslims invasions so scarce?
>>
>>2906325
Because no one gives a shit thus there is no demand for it?
>>
It is taboo to paint tolerant and peaceful muslims as agressive conquerors
>>
Same reason the media tries to pretend the Crusades we an unjustified holy war. Makes Muslims look bad.
>>
>>2906325
there are tv shows and movies from the arab world about all this stuff

like a ton of them
>>
>>2906370
muslim world*

not necessarily arab, my bad

>>2906370
Because it's relevant there, i'm sure OP is not from any of those places tho. Only a handful of middle-eastern media makes it to the west, and something tells me even less makes it to the US.

There are, like I think the show Omar deals with it. They just tend to be in Arabic and from the POV of the Muslims

it's up online, places like youtube and other random sites. there's one series that's actually pretty damn good about early arab conquests and conflicts among the sahaba but i can't remember the name

Shit that's high quality for an Arab production, stuff I see from there are usually Mexican telenovela-tier.
>>
also theres a Turkish series up on netflix called "Dirilis Ertugrul" or "Resurection: Ertugrul" . Watched it with subtitles for the fuck of it but ended up liking it:

Different era, but deals with the forefathers of the Ottomans and unlike other productions manage to depict the Byzantines as nuanced rather than Evil Infidels
