    Two thumbs up

    Humane, outrageously funny and a true depiction of the real world.

    I am a Muslim and a Pakistani. I have watched five episodes of the season and have still to find anything offensive against Islam. Yes it is critical of the way Muslims go by in their day to day dealings. But this is the beauty of the season it shows Muslims as humans and ordinary people with challenges that normal people face and how they cope with them. The director and writer of the season have done a brilliant job showing a different dimension of the Muslim life something other than the stereotyped image of Muslims.

    It is a must watch for anybody who is Muslim, Pakistani or British. If you are all three and have an open mind I bet you will get a stomach ache after watching this.

    I think its great

    Some put this down as unfunny and even racist. I don't i think its great and shows that people of Islam can have fun as much as anyone else.

    You do have to look for the jokes sometimes and the humour can be questionable but it is a lot of fun and thank you BBC that there will be a second series.

    This is the sort of comedy that needs to be made,this and Mrs Browns Boys have shown people in a new friendly light and broken down barriers where as they show called Cuckoo doesn't deserve the category "comedy" Those who are offended - get a life and stop being offended on someone else's behalf.

    Adil can save it.

    I think Adil Ray has something - you have to like him. Whether this is the vehicle for his talents is another question. It has an incredibly dated feel and seems like a leftover from the 1970's. Chris Marshall is very out of place in this, mind you he was in the dreadful My Family so even this must be a step up for him. How anyone can get themselves in a lather about a poorly conceived sitcom as many Muslims have is beyond me. It really is not worth it. Maybe the whole thing is going to get better when it has settled in but I doubt it. There are several things it has going for it - Adil Ray for one and the premise is good even if the execution needs work. Watch this space.

    Best Muslim Comedy Ever!

    As a Muslim and a Middle Eastern, I found this series to be absolutely hilarious and hits on common stereotypical behavior of Pakistanis and Muslims in general. I did not find it to be offensive at all. I love all the characters in the show. Basically the only negative thing about this show is that there are only a few episodes per season. They seriously should produce more episodes and I think it will be very popular amongst Muslim and Middle Eastern audiences. I don't see a problem why this show would not be popular amongst non-Muslim audiences. Not only does it introduce the people in a comic and light manner, but it is the first show I have ever seen that humanizes Muslims.

    offensive to those looking to be offended

    The type of comedy we have been missing in the last couple of years. Very fun silly and a good piece of Monday night comedy. It's not everyone's cup of tea but me and my family love it. The latest thing i heard was that all the actors are Hindus and that the show was made by Zionists, brilliant, if you don't like it don't watch it! stop making silly stories up. Pathetic. 10/10 i look forward to the show every week. I have spoken to several Muslims who have been slating the show on facebook, it was then that i realised that they hadn't even watched the show but was told how offensive it was. People are being sheep. Because of this reaction it is unlikely that we see any sort of Muslim show for a long time. Congrats

    • Trivia
      The show is set in Sparkhill, Birmingham, but since the closure of BBC Pebble Mill in 2004 there are no longer any suitable TV studios in Birmingham, so the show is recorded at the BBC's new Media City studios in Salford, Greater Manchester. However, creator and star Adil Ray insists that some location filming is done in Birmingham for each series.
