The name "Israel" actually belonged to the Prophet Yaqub (Jacob, peace be upon him), representing something entirely different from what we understand as a contemporary nation today. It's disheartening to see numerous films and television shows—including those depicting the story of Prophet Dawood (peace be upon him)—distort historical accounts for political purposes. These portrayals attempt to connect Prophet Dawood with a modern "Jewish state," but his reign was fundamentally about religious devotion and fairness, not related to Zionist ideologies.
