Negative perception towards Islam is a controversial and highly debated issue in the world today but only minimal effort has been done to combat the misconception. While there are many issues that surround the Muslim ummah, the loss of “adab” due to the confusion of knowledge has been the main culprit in advancing moral collapse crisis across the globe. Perfection of character through “adab” is the main focus in Islamic philosophy. To rectifies the issue; the media need to be at the forefront of educating the community on the real face of Islam. Looking at the success of a few Islamic-theme-series particularly "Umar Al-Khattab" gives us hope in promoting the virtues and principles of Islam through Islamic historical dramas or movies especially in the context of Malaysia and Southeast Asia. Content analysis method was used to analyse “adab” from the Umar Al Khattab series. “Adab” or virtue is related to the teachings of Islam which by further understanding the virtues can be educational to the viewers. Bringing back the identity as a Muslim can be done at the core level by restoring faith in an individual by showcasing the influential individuals in Islam through dramas or films because media are powerful tools in changing people's opinion and way of thinking.
