I saw this linked from Drudge:

Islam goes to Hollywood…

Another film that is supposed to “…educate people about the true meaning of Islam.” - that will not show Muhammad at all.

They also mention that someone wants to remake ‘The Message’; a movie that sparked protests, hostage taking and killing. The movie was so ‘careful’ that it not only didn’t show Muhammad, it didn’t have him speaking and didn’t show any of his wives or immediate family. I suggest for the new film, they should follow the method used for adults speaking in the Charlie Brown cartoons.

It is backed by the Qatar-based production company Alnoor Holdings, who have installed the Muslim scholar Sheikh Yusuf Al-Qaradawi to oversee all aspects of the shoot.

Does this scholar have any background that is known?
