The final episode of the series "Muawiya" with a special appearance by Ashraf Abdel Ghafour

The twenty-first and final episode of the historical series "Muawiyah" featured a special appearance by the late artist Ashraf Abdel Ghafour, in one of his most distinguished historical roles, embodying the character of the noble companion Abu Ayyub al-Ansari.

This appearance was a dramatic tribute to one of the pillars of Arab art, presenting a touching scene before his passing.

In this context, the series depicts Abu Ayyub al-Ansari's participation in the army sent by the Commander of the Faithful, Muawiyah ibn Abi Sufyan, under the leadership of his son, Yazid, to conquer Constantinople, the capital of the Byzantine Empire.

During the battle, Abu Ayyub al-Ansari was martyred, leaving his final will to be buried near the city walls. Yazid ibn Muawiyah carried out this request, immortalizing the memory of one of the Companions who carried the banner of Islam in its fiercest battles.

The series chronicles the life of the companion Muawiyah ibn Abi Sufyan, from his birth and assignment to writing down the revelation, through his pivotal role in the Islamic conquests by land and sea, to his assumption of power, where he was known for his wisdom and political cunning.

The work also examines the period of the Great Sedition, beginning with the martyrdom of Caliph Uthman ibn Affan, followed by Imam Ali ibn Abi Talib's assumption of the caliphate, his martyrdom, the assumption of the caliphate by Imam Hassan ibn Ali, his abdication in favor of Muawiyah, and finally the assumption of power by Yazid ibn Muawiyah and the pivotal events that followed, most notably the martyrdom of Imam Hussein ibn Ali in Karbala.
