(peace be upon him)[edit]

Does this article really need to praise Muhammad in order to give a comprehensive biography of Akkad?—Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.205.215.34 (talk • contribs)

No, of course not. Good you noticed, it's gone now.--Hús ö nd 01:06, 1 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

traveled to USA at the age of 5 ???[edit]

According to this sentence: In 1935, his father, then a customs officer, gave him $200 and a copy of the Quran before he left for the United States to study film direction. How can this be possible ?? --Ezzex (talk) 01:35, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Provoking[edit]

I find the sentence "Though he dedicated much of his career to explaining Islam to the West, ironically he was killed in 2005 in Amman, Jordan by an Al-Qaeda in Iraq suicide bomber." is very provking as it links clearly between Isalm and that group, unless you consider that he made a film about Bin Ladin or he praised Al Qaida in his film. For God sake, he made a movie about a religioun came to world 1400 years ago, not about people who have a new political or whatever theory grown up by US interests. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 41.208.82.97 (talk) 15:13, 17 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
