(Radio Free Europe) Iran’s ambassador to London has condemned a film produced by a U.K.-based company, claiming that the film undermines the teachings of the Prophet Muhammad.
The film, titled The Lady of Heaven, revolves around the story of an Iraqi child who learns the importance of patience by discovering the story of Fatima Zahra, the daughter of Muhammad.
“In a letter to the Shi’ite and Sunni Islamic centers in the U.K., I categorically condemned the film … as a divisive action, and expressed concern over attempts to create division and hatred among Muslims at this sensitive time,” Ambassador Hamid Baeidinejad tweeted on February 1.
