Islam: The Untold Story is a documentary film written and presented by the English novelist and popular historian Tom Holland. The documentary explores the origins of Islam, an Abrahamic religion that developed in Arabia in the 7th century; it criticizes the orthodox Islamic account of this history, claiming that this traditional story lacks sufficient supporting evidence. It was commissioned by the British television company Channel 4 and first broadcast in August 2012. Its release followed the publication of Holland's In the Shadow of the Sword: The Battle for Global Empire and the End of the Ancient World (2012), which also discussed the rise of the Arab Empire and the origins of Islam.

Adopting the controversial theories of academic historian Patricia Crone as a basis, Holland asserted that there was little hard evidence for the origins of Islam and asked why it took several decades after the death of Muhammad for his name to appear on surviving documents or artifacts. Arguing that there was little evidence for how the faith was born, he suggested that the city of Mecca may not have been the real birthplace of Muhammad and Islam, and – while not clearly disputing Muhammad's existence as a real historical figure – posited that much of the Islamic origin "myth" was later developed in the early years of the Arab Empire.

The documentary proved controversial. Mainstream media reception was mixed, but it provoked criticism from figures within the United Kingdom's Islamic community who argued that Holland ignored evidence supporting the orthodox account of early Islamic history. Government-approved regulatory authority Ofcom and the broadcaster Channel 4 received an estimated 1200 complaints regarding the program. Fearing "violent retaliation from militant Muslims", Channel 4 cancelled a public screening of the documentary at their London headquarters.

The documentary looks at the intimate, personal reasons individuals are drawn into that world and how some find their way out of it. The film also shows that Westerners embracing jihad is nothing new and has been going on since the 1980s.

Two fathers have lost their sons to a radical Islamist movement whose growth is enabled by naïve and misguided political correctness, willful ignorance, and simple cowardice. Carlos Bledsoe, born and raised in an African American Baptist family, firebombed a rabbi's house and then killed Pvt. Andy Long outside an Army recruiting office in Little Rock, Arkansas. Carlos becomes a jihadist through his connections to radical mosques and Imams in Nashville, as part of a problem that is being ignored—or facilitated—by local civic and religious leaders and the media; whose politically correct views blind Americans to a truth that few dare engage.

Du VIII au XV siècle, à l’époque de l’Espagne musulmane, une grande quantité de textes scientifiques furent produits. Quand les musulmans quittèrent l’Espagne ils emportèrent de nombreux manuscrits. Aujourd’hui, nous pouvons les retrouver disséminés dans des bibliothèques de particuliers, au long de la Route des Caravanes, au Maroc, en Mauritanie et au Mali. De Tolède à Tombouctou, ce documentaire suit leurs traces. Le protagoniste, Ismael Diadié Haidara, propriétaire de la bibliothèque Al Andalus de Tombouctou, a passé des années à essayer de récupérer les manuscrits familiaux et, avec eux, son passé Al Andalous.
