Assalaamalaikum
So pleased that it ultimately happened, I in fact made a proposal for a similer 
Channel , being in the Media since 1953 but for lack of any help and 
requirement of a huge amount of funds could not start, though as you will see 
below an extract of the proposal on my site remained for several years . But 
any way it has happened what I wanted Jaza ka Allah and Mubarak.

TV Channel 24x7 
A Global TV Channel with Urdu and English to begin with and other major 
languages like Arabic and Persian, Chinese and Japanese, German and Russian 
will be added later. A Pan Islamic Channel is the need of the day and the 
proposed Channel will fulfill this need and remove the vacuum. .This was deeply 
felt and expressed on the occasion of this Aashurah when in such a vast country 
like India with a very sizable Muslim population, there was just half an hour 
broadcast on DD network and a few seconds of clips on some of the other News 
Channels . May be a few programs  have been broadcast at some other time during 
the 10 days of Moharram .        
         The Project is estimated to cost around One million $ which will be 
funded and paid  by the interested Founder Members of the Community, directly 
to the land agencies, builders and provider of necessary equipments etc. Ones 
established, the channel will run on profits from sales of CDs & DVDs , 
Advertisements and other earnings and shall provide wholesome, authentic , 
quality programs, twenty four hours of the day, seven days of the week and all 
the year round.

First Shia Islamic Satellite Channel for India (and 40 other Countries)
  
Dear Brothers and Sisters in Islam 
Salamun Alaikum 
We would like to give you a brief introduction about World Islamic Network. 
The World Islamic Network (WIN) is a registered Public Trust (under the Govt. 
of India), which was established in December 1991. The main objective is to 
impart true knowledge of Islam to the people around the world, promote the 
understanding of Islam in the light and teachings of Ahlul bayt (a.s.) and to 
remove the misconceptions about Islam among Muslims and Non-Muslims. 
So far, WIN has published 70 titles and these books are distributed FREE of 
cost around the globe. Till today we have distributed 5 lakh FREE books to 
Muslims as well as Non-Muslims. By the grace of Allah (s.w.t.) WIN has a 
membership of over 30,000 active members throughout the world. FREE books are 
mailed to the members with the condition that they email or write to us the 
feedback of what they have read. This entitles them to more books. 
Our other activities are (1) Islamic Classes for Ladies (2) Sale of DVD’s (3) 
Ladies Library & Reading Room (4) Coaching Classes for students of Std. IX, X 
and XII so that they can excel in academic field. 
WIN has an excellent DVD collection of lectures, majalis, tafseer of the Holy 
Quran, group discussions etc. These lectures were relayed for the past 8 years 
through different TV cable networks all over Mumbai and its Suburbs. These 
programmes beamed in over 2 million houses mostly during mornings between 7.00 
am & 9.00 am for almost 8 years. In the year 2008 we started WIN TV (24x7) on 
cable network for Mumbai, Thane, Navi Mumbai, Aurangabad, Nasik and some parts 
of Pune and other parts of Maharashtra. By the grace of Allah (s.w.t) we have 
at present approximate 5 million connections. 
After receiving a favorable response on this project of WIN TV in the city of 
Mumbai and parts of Maharashtra we were greatly motivated to start the process 
for a “SHIA ISLAMIC SATELLITE CHANNEL” for India and Asia. It should be a major 
concern for each and every one of us that although there are millions of Shias 
all over India, we still do not have our own Satellite network in Urdu and 
English, while other communities have at least one network to propagate their 
religion. In this age of information, technology and satellite network, which 
are full of vulgar programs, the moral standards of our youth is fast 
deteriorating. In this society, where media rules the thoughts of the people 
and Islam is presented as a religion of Terrorism, it becomes essential for us 
to have control over the media. If we do not take immediate steps to fight this 
dangerous trend, we will not only be failing in our duties towards our children 
but we will be answerable to
 Allah (s.w.t.) as well. 
So, we have come up with a Dream Project to launch the  “First Shia Islamic 
Satellite Channel” (WIN TV) which will cover the true essence of Islam in the 
light of the teachings of Holy Ahlul Bayt (a.s.).Inshallah we plan to initiate 
this project and reach millions and billions of people across the globe. 
Since this is not an easy task, we appeal to all Federations, Organizations and 
all Momineens around the world to join hands in this noble cause. No doubt it 
is a big challenge, but we are sure by HIS Grace, will be able to overcome this 
challenge. 
Our dreams are many but resources are few, so we invite you to share our dreams 
and request you to kindly support us in this noble cause. Surely its reward 
will be manifested on the Day of Judgment. 
With salaams and duas.
