Welcome to 1 Ummah FM - Ramadan Radio Reading, broadcasting live from Reading 24 hours a day on 87.9 FM during the blessed month of Ramadan. With an overwhelming contribution from local business, Masajid, community groups and personalities this year Ramadan Radio promises to be the best Reading has enjoyed! Beside the conventional Radio broadcast we will also be streaming our broadcast through the Internet via our website to the rest of the world. All programming will be presented by local Muslims from Reading ranging from young professionals to middle aged women.
1 Ummah FM aims to help the Muslim community become a more cohesive community that lives according to Islam through word and deed. We feel that if we harness our strengths and adhere to our Islamic values we can tackle the many challenges facing us today, and make a honourable contribution towards the society at large, including discharging our duty of Dawah to non-Muslims.
This year we have local Imam's every day on Ifatar Ramadan from all of Reading's Mosques and live Taraweeh in the evenings, thus providing a real sense of unity. Programming includes women's shows, interviews with experts, Quran with translation, competitions, debates, charity appeals, current affairs and much more. So tune into 1 Ummah FM this Ramadhan - Educating & Uniting our Community!
