Robin Hood Ep 5

BBCs Robin Hood, Ep 5 of season 1 involves a bunch of Turkish slaves that get caught in the middle of a battle over the Sherif's mines. In that, a new character is introduced called Djaq (pronounced like Jack) who is an intelligent "son" of a doctor and brings a bunch of new inventions into the mix, helping Robin to destroy the mines. Djaq turns out to be a woman in disguise. She is my favorite character next to Marion.

Robin Hood has a very interesting quote in this episode. He quotes the Qur'an, I do not know what verse. But it is about man striving for righteousness. They ask him if it is the Bible he quoted he says no the Qur'an. Much calls it the Turkish Bible then asks him why he read it.

He said to see what they were fighting. And that is when you realize why Robin has an issue with the Crusades. He saw no reason to fight people who believed the same thing.

Alhumdulilah!

Its a great show, campy, but great. And there are a few crossings with muslims, mostly positive. Check out Marion's wardrobe its fantastic! I want all her clothes...why don't we dress that way anymore? :(
