3 Arab Series Worth Watching On Netflix!

There are 2.3 billion Muslims worldwide, which shows Muslims account for a significant share of the global population.

Despite this, many portrayals of Muslim characters in Western media are either undeveloped or propagate stereotypes. This might make it difficult to discover a good film with Muslim characters. Fortunately, we’ve got you covered.

 If you’re seeking for something to watch then look no further!

  • Al Hayba :

This Ramadan-released Arab drama television series is directed by Samer Al Barkawi and produced by Ziad El Khatib. It spans five seasons, and Taim Hasan, dubbed “Jabal Sheikh Al Jabal,” is the main character in all of them.

This TV show is really worth viewing. Despite its popularity on a professional creative level, it also reveals a lot about how actual Arabs live in the real world. Regardless of how the mainstream media depicts them, the fact is that they live conservatively according to their beliefs and ideals, that they count the bloodline, and that they protect their heritage. These people value and give substance to the concept of family. The excellent acting, rage, revenge, insights into their culture, and the narrative all contribute to this being an amazing program to watch!

  • Finding Ola :

Finding Ola has made an impression on Netflix viewers since its premiere earlier this month, earning a position on the streaming service’s top ten trending TV series list. The Netflix Arabic original offers a star-studded ensemble that includes some of Egypt’s best actors, including Hend Sabry, Sawsan Badr, Hany Adel, and Nada Moussa.

This is a fantastic show on women’s empowerment, with a happy divorcee embarking on a journey of self-discovery following her divorce. It also depicts the difficulties that divorced women experience in modern culture, as well as wading through the many types of men and understanding women’s emotions, but not in a dry scientific manner, but rather as a light comedy. The performers worked well together, and Hind Sabi delivered as promised!

  • AlRawabi School for Girls :

Created by Shirin Kamal and Tima Shomali, the show’s themes are reminiscent of American counterparts and is set in a fictional girls’ school in the Arab world.

This series is so much more than a “teenage drama.” It depicts a highly pertinent and on-point social commentary on the Jordanian and Arab communities, and, in addition to the globally applicable subject of bullying, it captures the girls’ life, what they go through inside and how they reflect it outside, with such elegance. It reveals how things function in certain houses, the veneer that some institutions assume, and how much society affects and influences the lives of young girls. The tale and conversation are really well-written, with three-dimensional characters and varying opinions on what is good and wrong. The direction is great, and the music includes songs from independent artists from all over the Arab world.
