King Hassan II of Morocco gave Akkad full support for the production while then-Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi provided the majority of the financial support too. ДЇinancing for the project initially came from the Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, Kuwait and Morocco, but when it was rejected by the Muslim World League, Emir Sabah III Al-Salim Al-Sabah of Kuwait withdrew financial support.

He received approval from Al-Azhar in Egypt but was rejected by the Muslim World League in Mecca, Saudi Arabia. While creating The Message, director Akkad, who was Muslim, consulted Islamic clerics in a thorough attempt to be respectful towards Islam and its views on portraying Muhammad. The pagan images of the gods in the Kaaba are destroyed, and the very first azan in Mecca is called on the Kaaba by Bilal ibn Rabah. They surrender and Mecca falls into the hands of the Muslims without bloodshed. The Meccans become very scared but are reassured that people in their houses, by the Kaaba, or in Abu Sufyan's house will be safe. None of the Muslims give him an audience, claiming he 'observes no treaty and keeps no pledge.' The Muslims respond with an attack on Mecca with very many troops and 'men from every tribe'.ДЄbu Sufyan seeks an audience with Muhammad on the eve of the attack. Abu Sufyan comes to Medina fearing retribution and claiming that it was not the Meccans, but robbers who had broken the truce. The Muslims believe that the Meccans are responsible. Meanwhile, Muslim camps in the desert are attacked in the night. The Meccans and the Muslims close a 10-year truce.ДЄ few years later, Khalid ibn Walid, a Meccan general who has killed many Muslims, converts to Islam. Because of this, they are surprised by riders from behind, so they lose the battle. The Muslims run after the Meccans and leave the camp unprotected.

The Meccans want revenge and beat back with three thousand men in the Battle of Uhud, killing Hamza. They are attacked but win the Battle of Badr. Muhammad chooses peace for a moment, but still gets permission to attack. They are told that their possessions are being sold in Mecca on the market. They head north, where they receive a warm welcome in the city of Medina and build the first Islamic mosque. Some of these followers fled to Abyssinia to seek refuge with the protection given by the king there. As a result, more enemies will come and hunt Muhammad and his companions from Mecca and confiscate their possessions. Gradually, almost the entire city of Mecca begins to convert. The angel asks him to start and spread Islam. The film begins with Muhammad sending an invitation to accept Islam to surrounding rulers: Heraclius, the Byzantine Emperor the Patriarch of Alexandria the Sasanian Emperor.Д®arlier Muhammad is visited by the angel Gabriel, which shocks him deeply.

Then-Libyan leader Muammar al-Gaddafi provided the majority of the financial support.
