Alhamdolillah! In the last 22 years World Islamic Network has grown from a small organization distributing free Islamic books to a Satellite Channel reaching more than 33 countries. By the grace of Allah (s.w.t) many people have gained guidance and true knowledge of Islam through their books; and their Television channel is serving the same purpose today. May Allah (s.w.t) and the Ahlul Bayt (a.s) increase their taufiq to serve and guide our community and our society.
