Turkey / Arabia: The death of the Prophet Muhammad in 632 CE as represented in a 16th century Ottoman Siyer-i Nabi or Life of the Prophet.

Representations of the Prophet Muhammad are controversial, and generally forbidden in Sunni Islam (especially Hanafiyya, Wahabi, Salafiyya). Shia Islam and some other branches of Sunni Islam (Hanbali, Maliki, Shafi'i) are generally more tolerant of such representational images, but even so the Prophet's features are generally veiled or concealed by flames as a mark of deep respect.
