Ibrahim Eissa Is Under Fire Once Again For Misrepresenting Islam In His New Movie “El Molhed”

Malak Nazir

Controversial filmmaker Ibrahim Eissa finds himself at the center of another storm with the release of his latest movie, “El Molhed”. Criticism has surrounded the film since its inception, escalating with the recent release of its trailer. Critics claim the film inaccurately represents Islam, sparking widespread debate and dissatisfaction.

Ibrahim Eissa ‘s “El Molhed” narrates the life of a child raised in a strict religious environment who grows to reject his early teachings, embodying beliefs entirely contrary to his upbringing. This storyline has ignited tensions, with many social media users arguing that the film promotes a skewed perception of Islam.

In defense of the film, producer Ahmed El Sobky emphasized the premature nature of the criticisms during a recent phone interview. “Some people attack just because of the movie’s name. The syndicate approved it,” he stated, pointing out that the film had passed official scrutiny before its public release.

As the debate unfolds, the film continues to attract attention both from supporters who praise its daring narrative, and from detractors who fear it might harm the image of Islam among viewers. With “El Molhed” set to hit theaters soon, the controversy is only expected to intensify, drawing eyes and sparking conversations about the portrayal of religion in cinema.
