Nouman Ali Khan – Introducing the New Bayyinah TV App

Assalamu alaikum everyone. It's Numa'uli Khan from Bayida.

As you may already know, over the last

couple of decades and even a little bit

more, I've been trying to study the Quran,

understand it better for myself, and do whatever

I can to simplify its message for audiences

around the world and also take a deep

dive and introduce people to its deeper meanings

and its wisdom. In going through that journey,

I've met some wonderful people from around the

world. And what gives me special joy is

that I see young people enjoying, benefiting, and

finding meaning in the work that we're doing

and really absorbing it. The way I wanted

to deliver this service to the world was

to actually compile it all together in an

organized way so that different people that are

approaching the Quran or even the study of

the Arabic language can do so easily from

one resource, and that was Bayin Atibni. It's

been over a decade that I launched this

product, and many thousands of you are subscribers

to Bayonetivni. And one of the most common

criticisms I get of Bayonetivni is that it's

overwhelming. It's so much work. It's decades of

work that has been put in there for

so many different audiences that people don't know

where to begin. And I acknowledge that problem.

It is an overwhelming app, even though I

wanted it to be a lifestyle app where

you just, you know, 20 minutes a day,

15 minutes a day are engaging with the

Quran and it becomes a meaningful part of

your life. So in order to address that

problem where, you know, if you left off

at a Surah or you were trying to

study something, you have to go to a

menu, then a sub menu and a sub

menu to kind of pick up from where

you left off and many of the other

features that were quite frankly annoying. We've been

asking ourselves, how do you make just like

the the work that I'm doing, so many

people find enjoyable. How do you make the

app itself and the usability of the app

itself also enjoyable for millions of people around

the world? And I think we've done a

good job of that in this new iteration

of the Bayina app. It's gonna be a

new experience for Bayina TV users. I'm very,

very excited for this launch. And this is

a video where I wanna tell you some

things about it. Starting with features that I

know you're gonna benefit from immediately are things

like switching between audio and video capability. So

you can switch whatever lecture you're listening to

or whatever content or course you're watching so

that when you're driving or commuting or even

saving data, that can become a convenience for

you. A progress bar was a problem. So

now just like YouTube or Netflix or any

other service, you can pick up from exactly

where you left off. Based on your watch

history, if you watched a certain kind of

course or a certain kind of surah or

certain kinds of messages and or material, like,

resonated with you, now we can actually give

you recommendations of other materials that can build

up on that and kind of cater to

you personally. You know, there are so many

amazing features inside the service and things are

being upgraded

and updated all the time. Like the deeper

look series, I'm spending 1,000 of hours a

year studying more and more Quran and doing

new lectures,

on surahs that I haven't taken a deep

dive in along with my team, and those

are getting updated all the time. But additionally,

also a new feature is gonna be every

2 weeks. I'm gonna come live on Bayona

TV to answer your questions, and that's my

dedication to our subscribers. That I wanna be

there for them and I wanna be able

to address them and help them in their

journey along the way. There's also a new

library tab that I'm very excited about. And

under it because for a long time I

had I I thought of Arabic as a

systematic approach to study. I can I can

break it up into a curriculum and chapters

and kind of put a system around it?

But Quran study always seemed like too much

of too overwhelming of a study for someone

to have a system around it. But now,

alhamdulillah, because of the library feature, I think

you can take a systematic approach to studying

the Quran. You can take each one of

those areas of learning, like you can think

of a surah or an area of Quran

study as a course, and you can progress

through your course. You can be you can

monitor how much progress you've made. You can

do this self paced. You can hold yourself

accountable. So this sort of becomes your personalized

education also in the Quran. It's not just

a video library now. It's actually now, a

way to track your progress and actually meaningfully

able to tell that you're making progress and

moving forward in your study and your appreciation

of the Quran. You'll also be able to

bookmark your favorites

and you'll be able to use a much

more enhanced search feature. So you can do

a comprehensive search across the Quran. And if

I've done any work on that particular ayah

or that subject across different courses, you can

also bring all of that together. You might

also notice that because this,

library is of my work from several years

ago and until now. You can even see

my intellectual progress and the progress of our

team and our research ability on the service

that we're doing to the Quran. So all

in all, I think you're gonna be very

excited about what we're doing with Bayna TV.

And I'm hoping that you try it, you

try the new app features, and you try

the new app and have a new experience

with the Quran. And in the end, my

du'a is for myself is the same du'a

that I have for you, that Allah allows

us to connect with His book in a

meaningful way and in a way that keeps

us connected throughout our lives. It's not just

a phase that we go through. It's a

lifelong journey, and I'm just honored that I

get to be a part of that journey

for you. Thank you so much for watching

this, and I hope you do enjoy the

app.
