IBRA Media

IBRA ministers through internet, satellite television, video, cassettes, radio, education and follow-up. Every day several hundred hours of Christian programming are broadcast to all parts of the world from 200 different radio transmitters. IBRA's policy is to purchase airtime from established radio stations rather than to build and maintain its own transmitters. Through IBRA's ministry, about half of the world's population has opportunity to hear programs about Jesus Christ. And yet, several hundred million people are still waiting to hear the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

IBRA's vision is to reach all the unreached peoples of the world whose only hope of hearing the Gospel is through mass media. Within the framework of "World by Radio", IBRA cooperates with several other major world-wide Christian radio organizations so that all nations, peoples and tribes will have the opportunity to hear the Gospel in a language they can understand.

Dari is a variety of the Persian language spoken primarily in Afghanistan, where it serves as one of the two official languages, alongside Pashto.

Key Characteristics

• Language Family: It belongs to the Indo-Iranian branch of the Indo-European language family.

• Speakers: It is spoken by approximately 15 to 20 million people (as a first or second language) and functions as a *lingua franca* among Afghanistan’s various ethnic groups (Tajiks, Hazaras, Aimaqs, etc.).

• Relationship with Persian (Farsi): Dari and Farsi (spoken in Iran) are mutually intelligible. Their closeness can be compared to the relationship between the French spoken in France and the French spoken in Quebec.

• Writing System: It is written using the Perso-Arabic script.

• Distinctive Features: It retains more archaic phonetic traits of Classical Persian and exhibits certain differences in vocabulary and pronunciation (such as the presence of the "w" sound or distinct vowel sounds).

Radio broadcasting would not be possible without partnership. Our broadcasting partners include TWR, FEBA and IBRA who are part of the "World by Radio" group. We are also happy to work with other producers to share and receive audio resources.
