Radio Islam was registered in November 1993 as a Section 21 company. It was granted a license in April 1997 and our first signal broadcast was on the 10 April 1997. Since its inception, the station has established a captive audience based on its specific religious content. With internal growth, wider expertise and a broader range of content has attracted a wide audience in areas well beyond its license mandate. We are guided by the Noble Qur’aan and the Sunnah (traditions of the Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him).
