I'm sure we all enjoy the typical action, romance or comedy movie. But I thought people could suggest here movies with good morals or movies that follow a little closer to the guidelines of Islam for when people are looking for suggestions.

Wow, way to quote one line and ignore everything else in that paragraph. I said I was being general, and not merely talking about this thread.
Then you should have made it clear in your original post and subsequent one. You are posting in a thread about moral movies and suddenly you went off tangent.
Based on my "observation" you seem to be on the "there's differences of opinion in music" crusade agenda, because I see you keep popping them up.

Where did I justify watching things with music in them?
And I answered you because you popped a question to me in your previous post reply.

watch " children of heaven" i loved it, but its a very simple story of a poor muslim family. Watch the english dubbed version.
Movies made in iran are also very powerful and no -nonsense, as long as they are not pushing their agenda hehe, i forgot the name of this another one i really liked, uffff it was sooooo cuuute, it was about a really old lonely poor lady who was expecting a phone call from her son abroad and she had never seen a phone in her life, it looked so real lol, how she managed to...ahh cant spoil it.
There is another the concept of which was similar to the message of ISlam, but its reallyyyyy old and may have been watched. " Its a wonderful life" something like it, I don't remember if there are any skipping scenes in it, but i always skip soo i don't get to know whats skipped , also our movie shop already kept censored movies so we kids never figured out anything wrong, about what other kids would be like "huhhhh, you have watched that movie???? huhhhhhhhhhh, did you see it all??? and we'd be dumb confused saying yes
Apart from that i don't watch much movies either, i watch documentaries or recipes, if i have the time. : P
Salam
Oh sis I am so excited to watch this movie "children of heaven" i see its very well reviewed, Masha Allah
I will watch it tomorrow INSHALLAH
The HIGHEST accomplishment I can achieve in this worldly life is to be a TRUE MUSLIM. (me)
Err, I've got an honest question... So as we all know, the vast majority of people on this forum consider music (with musical instruments anyway) to be outright forbidden... But I see a lot of those people talking about watching movies or tv shows that include those things... My question is what makes that okay for you? That's one of the things I never understood about the prohibition in the first place, since it'd be kind of hard to avoid it... I'd rather not spark another debate or argument about the issue of music, but if some of you could answer the question I'd really appreciate it.
because those movies don't have music in them and are more like documentaries, no drama? find it strange?
And also if anyone has skipped the title of the thread, it is moral movies, those which could be watched by Islamic standards, looks like you haven't watched any and probably are un-aware that they exist? with a powerful good message being given.

For the most part, documentaries have music too... And I looked through a bit of that movie you mentioned on youtube, and it also has some music in it. My point is, most movies and videos have some sort of music in them. If you're going to watch them, then you'll have to deal with that, and I was just curious as to how people would justify all this to themselves.

err i don't see anyone justifying? Just to help save you from the burning curiosity, I had watched the movie a long time ago and I did not remember that it had any music, good for you that you specifically loaded it up to see if it had music, why don't you do something, since you seem to be really music specific, just watch all the movies and tell us if they have music and should not be watched 'cause i seriously don't have the time to : )
And thanks for you concern but people who don't like listening to music anymore, also don't like watching pointless fiction so much which just goes way over the top of their heads.

You don't seem to really understand what I'm asking or why... So perhaps it's best if we dropped the issue now and let the thread continue. Also, you've responded to me a few times since you joined recently, and each time you have been condescending, dismissive, and rude. You might want to work on that.

I have responded to only one post of yours which was regarding music, and I'm sorry if it seems to you that just because some people hold a different point of view, they are insulting you, God forbid. Allah knows that is never my intention, but yeah this post of yours that i just replied to also seemed, rude condescending and and dash dash to me , but i totally know and understand that and I'm all chill, please don't be mad i don't take a difference of opinion as being condescending towards anyone, I would readily apolojize if you've taken it that way.
And yes it was just not obvious from your post if you were trying to ask a reason for why you were saying what you were saying, you can clarify it whenever you wish .
