Broadcast

Affiliated with Radio Algeria, this Islamic radio began broadcasting on July 12, 1991 on medium waves (MW), with an hourly rate of daily broadcasting of only six hours a day, from 05:00 AM until 11:00 AM. [2]

The foundation of this radio station was made when the writer and novelist Tahar Ouettar was the director general of the Algerian national radio stations. [3] [4]

This radio continued to broadcast in this manner until March 6, 1992 when it began to produce and diversify the panel and range of its broadcasts. [5] [6]

Quran Radio has nevertheless experienced fluctuations in the hours of its broadcast since its creation until July 5, 2008 when the hourly rate of its broadcasts stabilized for ten hours a day divided into two periods. [7] [8]

Since 2008, the morning time slot of its broadcast thus extended over a period of two hours, going from midnight 0:00 a.m. until 2:00 a.m., while the second period extended from 5:00 a.m. from morning until 1:00 p.m. [9] [10]

The two-hour period extending from 5:00 a.m. to 7:00 a.m. was devoted to the countries of the African Sahel on medium waves, and it will be rebroadcast in the same night on shortwaves, and this from 8:00 p.m. until 10:00 p.m. [11] [12]

The diffusion of Quran Radio has been extended from Thursday, February 18, 2021 to broadcast its broadcasts over a continuous 24-hour period. [13] [14]

Jizya is a tax historically levied on dhimmis, that is, protected non-Muslim subjects of a state governed by Islamic law. When the Qur'an was written, it was common inside and outside of Arabia to levy poll taxes against alien groups. Building upon the historical practice, classical Muslim jurists argued that the poll tax is money collected by the Islamic polity from non-Muslims in return for the protection of the Muslim state. Quote: Jizyah: Compensation. Poll tax levied on non-Muslims, such as Jews and Christians, as a form of tribute and in exchange for an exemption from military service, based on Quran 9:29. The Quran and hadiths mention jizya without specifying its rate or amount, and the application of jizya varied in the course of Islamic history. However, scholars largely agree that early Muslim rulers adapted some of the existing systems of taxation and modified them according to Islamic religious law.

The words and deeds of Muhammad and the Imams guide the community. For this, the Imams must be free from error and sin and chosen by divine decree—nass—through the Prophet.
