The bird that came back with news.
The Hudhud is the bird that flew beyond the horizon and returned with news of a world no one had seen. In the Qur'anic story of Prophet Sulaiman, peace be upon him, it journeys to Saba' and comes back with certain news. It connects a world it did not know to the one it came from.
That is the spirit of Hudhud TV. Stories that begin in the Gulf, travel beyond the horizon, and come back with something worth telling.
Inspired by the Gulf.
Powered by imagination.
Stories they can call their own.
The Islamic world deserves a world of stories its children can call their own. Stories that begin in the culture, with the craft of a global studio. Stories that travel.
