The New Dawn – Season 01 – Episode 06 – Rescued From The Fire
Posted by The Digital Martyr in Productions, The New Dawn on September 20, 2009
In His Name, the Most High
This is the sixth episode of The New Dawn, and the first following our return from our break during the month of Ramadhan. We ask Allah to accept all the prayers, fasts and good deeds of all the Muslims during that special month. Amen.
The subject of this weeks discussion is “Rescued from the Fire”; with our special guest, Shaykh Ayyoub Rashid. This episode was due to feature the nasheed “The Passion” by The ViGiL, however; due to connectivity and power problems in Lebanon; our brothers at The ViGiL were unable to get the video for The Passion to us in time for the production release of this episode, as a result we have chosen to have the Nasheed “Seal of the Prophets”, which was initially featured in Season 01 Episode 01 of The New Dawn. The Nasheed “The Passion” will be featuring on a future episode of The New Dawn; and insha Allah. Both The ViGiL and The Digital Martyr appologise for this minor hiccup.
This episode of The New Dawn was aired on Tuesday, 29th September 2009, on Hidayat TV (Sky Channel 803) at 10pm UK Time, and will be repeated at 12pm on Thursday, 1st October 2009.

Who or What is the Martyr?
Posted by The Digital Martyr in Ideology, Politics, Thought on June 18, 2009
In His Name, the Lord of the Martyrs and the Truthful
An Introduction
This is going to be an on going series of short blog posts, coupled with video-blog entries (via YouTube - as well as elsewhere) discussing concepts and ideas that effect humanity; including events that happen in our world to which we are all witnesses.
We will discuss how these events effect those they are perpetrated on directly as well as as rest of humanity as a whole, because as is well known; every action has a consequence; it may not be an obvious consequence but nevertheless there is a consequence.
As inhabitants of this planet, as trustees of God; we have a responsibility to take the affairs of humanity seriously; to ensure that justice is upheld at all times; and to ensure that corruption, anarchy and mischief-mongering doesn’t go unchecked or unanswered.
The martyr is a witness on society; the Arabic word for martyr – Shaheed – literally means one who witnesses; one who watches; and this is the case in all the divine monotheistic idelogies. The martyr through the shedding of his blood; through working to ensure that Truth and Justice prevail; bears witness to the crimes of humanity; and will testify againt the evil perpetrated by humanity; the injustices whereby innocents are massacred, and pockets are filled, where the rights of people are usurped, and where the guilty are rewarded and classed as “peacemakers”.
Our symbol is that of a great martyr; one who worked selflessly throughout his entire life; until the day he was murdered and attained the lofty position of being a witness against the crimes of humanity by one of the most dangerous and tyrannical entities this world has ever known. But more on this in a later post.
The martyr is both a person and a state of mind; which is why our motto is “The Way of the Digital Martyr, Spreading Light in a Time of Abject Darkness”. The martyr serves two main purposes; we’ve already mentioned the first – as a witness on humanity; the second which is equally important; is that martyr though his self-less actions; sheds light on this tyranny; sheds light on the injustices; and makes the rest of humanity aware of the perils that lie ahead; this is why say that the martyr spreads light in a time of abject darkness.
While in today’s world; humanity claims to live in a very “enlightened” state; the reality is quite the opposite; we have an overload of information; we have an overload of mis-information; we have an overload of dis-information; all are designed to pull humanity in one way or another; to serve one agenda or another. We however; don’t believe that humanity can ever attain perfection through just the persuit of information; rather; humanity has a fundamental requirement to attain wisdom; which is the verification and subsequent application of information; through the lense of that which is the absolute perfection.
Moving on; whats the deal with this “Digital Martyr”? Why “Digital”; why not just Martyr? Well the answer is simple; we live in a digital age; we are surrounded by digital information; by technologies such as Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Windows Live, Bing, etc, etc, etc; we have clouds of information in cyberspace; and with all this “information”; there is a huge plethora – infact possibly the bulk of the information is noise and dis/mis-information. The Digital Martyr will strive to look at the digital world; which comprises:
- Television broadcasts
- Cinema films
- Radio broadcasts
- Internet broadcasts
- Other blogs and video-blogs
and attempt to sort the wheat from the chaff. The Digital Martyr will attempt to provide sanity amidst the insanity.
Finally, why now? Why create this blog and video blog now? For what purpose? Well we’ll tell you. We’ve noticed that the June 2008 Elections in the Islamic Republic of Iran have created such a burst of dis-information; with a plethora of western “news” outlets spewing the most appalling lies and mis-information; repeating the same footage and claiming it’s something different; and we see that there is a campaign that is directly aimed at the heart of Revolutionary Islamic Thought; we saw this; and we realise the danger that this poses – not just to Islam and Revolutionary Islam; but rather to all the monotheistic faiths; and to all those who are striving for justice and truth; and have yet to find their path to God.
We’ve seen lies that have made our blood boil; we’ve seen manufactured images that have broken our hearts; and we have a burning love for all humanity; as lovers of God; we are helpless that we must also love that which God has created; we can no longer stand by and watch those we love be lied to, be manipulated, be heart-broken, be confused and be led away from truth (while believing that it is the truth). We feel obliged and responsible in the eyes of God; who is a witness unto humanity; and we are compelled to give people the reality of the situation.
We promise; before God (call Him Allah, YHWH, G-d, whatever), that we will always speak the Truth; no matter the price that has to be paid; we will never lead people away from the Truth, and we promise before God, that we will always uphold Justice. Some people may not like what we say; some people may hate us, some people may think we’re deluded, some people may even like and agree with what we say; some people – and this is where we’re talking to the true seekers of truth amongst you - our readers, subscribers and viewers – some people we hope that we will touch their hearts; and will bring them towards that ultimate goal of perfection …
The Way of the Digital Martyr has been opened; we invite everyone to get involved; we invite everyone to comment and debate with us; we invite all to the Ultimate Truth …
Come; let us attain perfection together …
Our first video will be added within the next few days; so stay posted; update your bookmarks; subscribe and tell others.
The first revolution is that which changes you from a collection of cells, into that sublime creation of the Almighty, the human being … after that everything is possible; like an infant child; we must first crawl; before we can walk …
Warm Regards,
The Digital Martyr
