Unfortunately, false propaganda campaigns that deface Islam have permeated the world around us. Some of the most powerful news and television mediums have knowingly and/or unknowingly lent to this process, a helping hand.

We submit to you unbiased, fair, and balanced representations of Muslims. Telling the stories that must be told, one Muslim, at a time.
About the Producer
Mr. Umar Jamil Nasser is the Host and Producer of the The World of Islam. He is a second generation Muslim American, from New York City, NY. Son of Jamil Nasser of Memphis Tenn., who accepted Islam in the 1950s from West African delegates to the United Nations in NYC. Mr. Nasser was Muslim serving as a telecommunications engineer in the United States Air Force during the 1st Gulf War. It was during this time that he was able to make Umrah and Haj for the 1st time. Those experiences in Saudi Arabia constituted a spiritual turning point in my life. After my return to the USA I resigned my position in the USAF and after a few years returned to Saudi Arabia. After 9/11, I decided it was important to use the media to address the many misconceptions in the world about Islam and Muslims.
Mr. Nasser has hosted 200+ episodes of his program "The Truth about Islam" for Saudi Arabian TV Ch2. He produced and hosted the series "Islam In America" for Saudi TV Ch2. He has also hosted and produced the series "Muslims in America" for the Huda TV Channel. Our objective is to produce films that create conduits of understanding between Islam and the West. We are showing the world the true peaceful nature of Islam and Muslims. Muslims have many beautiful & inspiring stories, which, when told through Film, will help to humanize negative opinions and negate many misconceptions about Islam and Muslims. Presently, Mr. Nasser has been working and living in Riyadh Saudi Arabia for the past 12 years
