A peer reviewed academic article analyzing cinematic depictions of the Prophet Muhammad, including Majid Majidi's 2015 film, published by Taylor and Francis. Its strength is peer review and a scholarly focus specifically on how film has handled the Islamic prohibition on depicting Muhammad. Its limit is that this atlas could verify its bibliographic record, journal and abstract directly, but the publisher's full text sat behind an access wall not reachable during research, so it is cited here for the fact of sustained scholarly attention to the film's representational strategy rather than quoted for specific findings beyond its own published abstract and framing.
