Phoenix of Al-Andalus: The Divine Return of Islam In our second episode of this 2-part documentary we trace the spiritual rebirth of Islam in Spain — not through conquest, but through compassion, prayer, and prophecy. From the golden age of Al-Andalus to the silence following the fall of Granada in 1492, this episode captures centuries of loss, longing, and divine promise. It follows the sacred journey from the prophetic words of the Holy Prophet Muhammad ﷺ to the revival sparked by the Promised Messiah, Mirza Ghulam Ahmad (as), in the East, and carried westward by devoted pioneers like Chaudhry Fateh Muhammad Sial and Maulana Karam Ilahi Zafar. With the historic establishment of the Basharat Mosque in 1982, the first since the Reconquista, and the continued visits and guidance of Khilafat, the documentary unveils a quiet revolution: a return not of empire, but of faith. Through heartfelt interviews and historical narration, this documentary reveals how Ahmadiyyat has become Spain’s hidden heartbeat — the long-lost verse now restored to the melody of its soul. It is a tale of divine love rekindled, a prophecy fulfilled, and a dawn that, once risen, shall never set again.
