Peace TV - The best Islamic Channel

Peace TV

Peace TV was launched on Arabsat on satellite BADR-3 in October 2006.
As of September 2012, Peace TV is available on satellite Galaxy 19, 24/7, in English, Urdu and Bangla languages. As of September 2007, Peace TV is available in the United States and Canada and in the UK on BSkyB.

It is also available Over-The-Air (OTA) in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, Houston, Dallas, Miami, Atlanta and Seattle.
It is also available free of charge from the LiveStation satellite television computer application.
The channel received �1.25 million in 2009 from the Islamic Research Foundation International, a registered charity owned by Zakir Naik.


In 2011 the UK broadcasting regulator Ofcom investigated the channel for allegations of broadcasting extremist messages. Its programmes have labelled Jews as enemies of Islam and that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were an inside job.


In 2012, Ofcom ruled the channel broke broadcasting rules which states offensive comments should be justified by the context. It was ruled on the following statements which were broadcast on the March 8, 2012 on the Dare to Ask programme:

One group of scholars, they say that if a Muslim, if he becomes a non-Muslim [inaudible] he should be put to death. There is another group of scholars who say that if a Muslim becomes a non-Muslim and propagates his new faith against Islam then he should be put to death.

I tend to agree more with the second group of scholars, who say that a Muslim, if he becomes a non-Muslim and propagates his new faith against Islam, that is the time this penalty is applied.

In response, PeaceTV said they were just repeating the teachings of the Quran. The channel has been banned in India, because the government said it broadcasts malicious anti-Indian content.

The founder of Peace TV

Peace TV is a nonprofit satellite television network broadcasting globally 24/7 from Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Peace TV programs are all in the English language and telecast free-to-air. The founder and president of Peace TV is Zakir Naik, an Islamic preacher from Mumbai, India.
