AROPL Studios: The Media Wing of Aba Al-Sadiq Abdullah Hashem

AROPL Studios: The Beacon of Global Outreach

“And he’ll raise that rallying banner high, visible to all nations, gather in all the scattered exiles of Israel, pull in all the dispersed refugees of Judah from the four winds and the seven seas.” Isaiah 11:12

AROPL Studios, headquartered in the United Kingdom, stands as the official media wing of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace & Light, where the banner of “Allegiance is to Allah” waves proudly, broadcasting its message to the world.

With two 24/7 satellite TV channels reaching over 120 million homes across the MENA region, Africa, and Europe, the studio fulfills the ancient Hadiths from the Ahlul Bayt that the Qaim from the family of Mohammed would speak to people “in many languages.” AROPL Studios delivers content in Arabic, English, Farsi, French, Urdu, German, Spanish, and Azeri, expanding its reach far beyond traditional borders and working hard to gather believers from the four corners of the world.

The influence of these satellite channels has been immense, particularly in regions like the MENA, where satellite TV still adorns most rooftops, and where people cannot afford high-speed internet, or their area lacks adequate services.

Thousands have pledged allegiance to the Qaim Aba Al-Sadiq Abdullah Hashem since the channels launched, and our programs have caught the attention of major media outlets and religious scholars alike in the Middle East. Every day, the phone lines are buzzing with people filled with excitement and curiosity about this call, many of whom pledge their allegiance live on air because they believe in the Holy Will of Prophet Muhammad and they believe that the Qaim Aba Al-Sadiq Abdullah Hashem is the “Abdullah” mentioned in that Will.

They hold onto the words of Mohammed, where he said, “those who die without knowing the Imam of the Time” or “those who die without a pledge of allegiance to the Imam of the Time, have died the death of ignorance.”

The callers who are now believers today, have recognized and know the Imam of the time, the Qaim Aba Al-Sadiq Abdullah Hashem, and they pledged their allegiance and support for all to hear around the world. And they’re not the only ones—over 260 believers have come forward pledging their allegiance in the last 45 days, and that’s not considering those who wish to remain private, due to the persecution members of our faith face from Iran, Iraq, Algeria, Malaysia, Turkey, Azerbaijan, Jordan, and other countries in the region.

Beyond satellite TV, AROPL's dedicated team of around 45 believers produces content for nearly 50 multi-lingual social media platforms across major sites like YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Spotify.

The studio's media efforts focus on the teachings of the Qaim in his gospel “The Goal of the Wise,” and his lecture series called "The School of Divine Mysteries," available on the Mahdi Has Appeared YouTube channel.

“The School of Divine Mysteries” series, consisting of over 100 episodes, dives deep into the proofs of the Qaim’s call and shares profound knowledge from Abrahamic traditions, shaking the status quo and calling humanity to the true religion: the Supremacy of God. In less than one year, the channel has seen impressive numbers, with almost 54,000 subscribers, nearly 15 million channel views, and over 420,000 “watch-time hours.”

There are end times prophecies from the Ahlul Bayt concerning “the signs of the Appearance of the Qaim,” and in them, they say that the Qaim will speak to the world and the believer will see him in his place, although they themselves are in other parts of the world. No other time than today could this prophecy come to past and The Mahdi Has Appeared YouTube channel and satellite TV channels are a fulfillment of that prophecy over 1,000 years ago.

Another big sign of the appearance of the Qaim is that the believers will be able to see each other from the east to the west, and that is certainly fulfilled in the outreach work being carried out by the dedicated believers in AROPL Studios.

In every language mentioned above, we have believers working 24/7, speaking to the believers, answering their questions through video calls, hosting live workshops, coordinating various missionary works around the world, and relaying their questions to the Qaim Aba Al-Sadiq Abdullah Hashem.

The outreach team also works very hard to give proofs of our call on various live-streaming platforms such as YouTube and TikTok, as well as inviting scholars or accepting challenges from scholars to debate the legitimacy of this call and the standard in which we raise, “Allegiance is to Allah.”

The works that are being carried out by these divisions of the Qaim’s studio are vital to the expansion of this global movement and community, but the works don’t stop there…

“The Qaim/Riser shall rise with a new matter, and a new book, and a new jurisprudence which will be hard for the Arabs.” - Kitab Al-Ghayba

AROPL Studios is also a publishing house for works like "The Goal of the Wise" and "The Mahdi's Manifesto," authored by the Qaim Aba Al-Sadiq Abdullah Hashem himself. These works have attracted the interest of sincere seekers of God from every religious and non-religious background, as well as esteemed academic institutions, who have visited the headquarters in the United Kingdom. These academics have written many articles about the Qaim Aba Al-Sadiq and his message in their magazines.

Recently, the Ahmadi Religion of Peace & Light headquarters in the UK has also received requests for physical copies of “The Goal of the Wise” and “The Mahdi’s Manifesto” to be present in esteemed universities such as Oxford, Cambridge, Trinity College in Dublin, and the National Libraries of Scotland and Wales. The world of academia has been taking notice of the Qaim’s message of “Humanity First” and his vision of a Divine Just State.

AROPL Studios is more than just a media hub—it is a labor of faith. The believers working in AROPL are driven by a mission to spread the call of the 7th and final covenant, working tirelessly to reach every corner of the world.

We’re also happy to announce that this October 2024 marks the sixth issue of the Divine Just State magazine, covering the latest news, missionary efforts, and the knowledge shared by the Qaim. We have been told that the Malaysian government has banned the Divine Just State Magazine to be accessed through Malaysian Internet connection, as it is considered a magazine that is spreading deviant teachings. 

In recent reports coming out of Malaysia, three believers of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace & Light have been arrested for “deviant teachings” and one was sentenced to six months in prison and was fined 4,500 Malaysian Ringgit. This is the latest in a string of major persecution cases against members of the faith and an onslaught of censorship against AROPL social media platforms by the Political and religious authorities in Malaysia; including blocking Malaysia-wide AROPL YouTube, TikTok, Twitter and Facebook platforms, and on October 24th, 2024 - blocking the Divine Just State Magazine as well. 

The Ahmadi Religion of Peace & Light highlights and strongly condemns the persecution its members face and the media censorship of our missionary works and see it as a direct violation of Malaysia’s so-called laws that protect the freedom of speech, freedom of religion and basic human rights. 

These matters were broadcast to over 70 million homes on our second satellite channel “The Mahdi Has Appeared”, where the Bishop of Malaysia sat down with Dr. Irfan Aal al-Mahdi and Ailia Aal al-Mahdi and discussed the recent arrests and detainment, as well as the ongoing persecution and censorship of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace & Light in Malaysia.

At AROPL Studios, every broadcast, every social media post, and every publication is part of a divine mission to guide humanity toward truth and justice. And all of us here at AROPL Studios thank our beloved Father, the Qaim from the Family of Mohammed, Aba Al-Sadiq Abdullah Hashem, for the immense honor and blessing to be amongst his supporters in this time, and we would like to thank all the believers in his divine community who work night and day, working until they’re breathless, serving him and helping us in all the various functions of this humble, yet expanding Divine Just State that we are already living in, to spend every moment we have to spread this blessed call to the rest of the world.

Call in LIVE to one of our two official satellite TV channels, ask your questions, share your stories, and pledge your allegiance to the Qaim today.
