The Muslim Tommies

Wed 2 Sep 2009 23:25 BBC One



Much has been made of the threat posed by Islamic fundamentalists to the

security of Britain. But what is often forgotten is that Muslims have

fought on behalf of Britain for hundreds of years; thousands have lost

their lives in the process.



Using simple reconstructions, this film gives voice to some of the

Muslim soldiers who fought in the trenches of France during the First

World War as part of the Indian Corps. Censors office reports from the

time included many translated letters which document what life was like

on the front line.



The letters contain fascinating but often heart-breaking details about

the religious practices, sense of identity, hopes, fears, injuries and

brave actions of the soldiers from 1914 - 1918.
