    Brief about Al-Resalah Satellite Channel

    Media, and particularly satellite channel TVs became a vital part of our daily life, especially at evenings where most of the family members reunion to watch TV and flip over a wide number of TV channels that might not meet all the interests of the family members.

    Based on that concept, Prince Al-Walid Bin Talal thought of starting an Islamic satellite channel with moderate approaches to meet all the interests and preferences of the family members through a non-typical style to distinguish the new TV with exclusivity and diversity.

    Selecting Dr. Tariq Suweidan to manage the newly-born satellite TV, Prince Al-Walid Bin Talal, realized that DR. Suweidan enjoys a remarkable record of achievements in various fields such as the advocacy for Moderate Islamic Approaches. This cooperation started when Dr. Suweidan was conducting Omrah rituals in the Holy Mecca when he received a call from Prince Al-Walid Bin Talal asking him his opinion for such a new satellite TV. Dr. Suweidan asked Prince Al-Walid: Why you want to start such a TV? Prince Bin Talal immediately said that it is only for the sake of Allah, and nothing else.

    There, Dr. Suweidan realized that this Channel will be blessed, especially when it was discussed in the Holly Mecca.

    Actions were taken immediately, and Dr. Suweidan started to form his team starting from August 2004.

    The team focused on specific principles and pillars that should be observed to present a remarkable and new image of satellite TV channel. These basics were:
