As the blessed Hajj season approaches for 2025, Islam Channel will again serve as a focal point for Muslims, bringing the holy pilgrimage to life for those who cannot be there in person through insightful programming and live broadcasts.
The annual pilgrimage will likely occur between June 4-9, subject to moon sighting.
And our channels — Islam Channel, Islam Channel Urdu, and Islam Channel Bangla— will be at the forefront, bringing special Hajj programming for audiences to enjoy.
We will have:
- Round-the-clock coverage from Makkah and surrounding holy sites
- Insightful programming exploring Hajj rituals and significance
- Live broadcasts capturing key moments of the pilgrimage
- Educational content to prepare prospective pilgrims
Bringing Hajj to global audiences
Our channels are viewed by millions worldwide. In the UK, we hold a special place during Hajj, serving as a focal point for families to immerse themselves in the spiritual journey of Hajj, its rituals, and its profound significance.
Like in Ramadan, our viewership peaks during the Hajj season and the days leading up to it. And with last year’s TV viewership figures at 7.3 million in the UK alone, we anticipate further growth in 2025.
According to BARB, Islam Channel was the most viewed channel during Ramadan 2025 among South Asian and international channels in the UK, further reinforcing our unique reach and impact during key Islamic occasions.
