Jordanian actor Monther Rayahnah is set to participate in the Ramadan 2025 drama marathon with the TV series "Soyof Al Arab".
Rayahnah is attached to play the role of the historical leader Yusuf ibn Tashfin, one of the most prominent figures who left their mark on Islamic history.
Tashfin was a Sanhaja leader of the Almoravid Empire. He co-founded the city of Marrakesh and led the Muslim forces in the Battle of Sagrajas.
“Soyof Al Arab” is produced by Qatar Media Corporation and will be one of the biggest-budget TV productions in the drama marathon.
The series is a documentary drama that presents a new vision of the wars and conflicts that shaped the Arab world at that time. It is created at a production level that competes with international projects.
“Soyof Al Arab” is directed by Samer Jabr and was filmed entirely in the Moroccan city of Marrakech, forming the perfect backdrop with its archaeological sites and natural terrain that offers viewers a rich and dazzling visual experience.
The series is expected to achieve great success, especially with the growing interest in works that narrate Arab and Islamic history in an exciting and contemporary style.
Rayahnah is also participating in the drama marathon with the TV series "Hakim Basha", starring Mostafa Shaban.
The drama is a Saidi genre hailing from scriptwriter Mohamed al-Shawaf and features Shaban embodying a man from Upper Egypt for the first time.
Rayahnah and Shaban collaborated last Ramadan in the TV series "Al Moalem".
The cast also includes Salwa Khattab, Ahmed Bedier, Sahar El Sayegh, Hager Ahmed, Monther Rayahnah, Entsar, Ahmed Fouad Selim, and more.
“Al Moalem" is scripted by Mohamed Elshawaf, directed by Morcous Adel, and produced by Synergy.
The series is based on the 1986 film "Shader El Samk", starring Ahmed Zaki and Nabila Ebeed, and marks the first collaboration between Rayahnah and Shaban.
Born on 8 April 1979 in Irbid, Rayahnah started acting while studying at Yarmouk University, where he was a student of television and theater directing.
He graduated in 2004 and went on to star in several television series including “Akher El Forsan” (The Last of the Knights), “Khalid ibn Alwalid,” and “Al Igtiyah” (Breaking and Entering).
Reyahna also starred in Egyptian TV productions like “Khutoot Hamraa'” (Red Lines) and “Al Aqrab” (The Scorpion).
He landed his first lead role in a film in 2013's "Garsoneira", which starred Ghada Abdel Razek.
