Introduction
This archive documents the publicly available historical record relating to Abdullah Hashem, Hashem Studios, and the Ahmed al-Hassan movement between 2008 and 2011.
The purpose is not to evaluate the truth of religious claims but to establish a documented chronology based on archived websites, forum records, media productions, and statements published by Abdullah Hashem and organisations associated with him.
2008 – RELOCATION TO EGYPT
According to the official Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light timeline, Abdullah Hashem relocated to Egypt in 2008.

AROPL states:
“Abdullah Aba Al-Sadiq relocates to Egypt.”
This period coincides with Abdullah Hashem’s involvement in online media production and religious outreach activities.
2008 – THE ARRIVALS
Abdullah Hashem became known online through the documentary series “The Arrivals”, which he co-produced with Joseph McGowen.
The series focused on:
- End-times prophecy
- Dajjal (Antichrist)
- Secret societies
- New World Order theories
- Occult symbolism
- Geopolitical conspiracies
Independent biographical sources identify Abdullah Hashem as a producer of The Arrivals.

2010–2011 – THE ANTI-CHRIST DAJJAL SERIES (TADS)
Following The Arrivals, Abdullah Hashem continued producing online religious and conspiracy-themed content through the Anti-Christ Dajjal Series (TADS).
The material increasingly incorporated:
- Islamic eschatology
- Mahdist expectations
- Ahmed al-Hassan teachings
- Apocalyptic interpretation of world events
AROPL’s own historical narrative states that Abdullah accepted the claims of Ahmed al-Hassan in 2011 after researching what he believed to be the appearance of the Yamani.

OCTOBER 2011 – THE YAMANI PLATFORM
Archived copies of the Yamani website demonstrate that by October 2011 a dedicated platform existed promoting the teachings of Ahmed al-Hassan.
Archived source:
https://web.archive.org/web/20111008053306/http://yamani.hashemstudios.com
The website was hosted under the Hashem Studios network and presented Ahmed al-Hassan’s message to English-speaking audiences.
This establishes a direct connection between Hashem Studios and promotion of the Ahmed al-Hassan movement before the later formation of AROPL.
NOVEMBER 2011 – THE HASHEM STUDIOS BOARD
Archived forum records from November 2011 reveal a large online ecosystem centred around Hashem Studios.
Archive:
https://web.archive.org/web/20111116232201/http://www.hashemstudios-board.com/viewforum.php?f=118
The forum contained:
- The Arrivals
- TADS Semester 1
- TADS Semester 2
- The Mahdi Times
- HashemStudios Radio
- HashemStudios Webstore
- The Yamani Ark
- The Yamani Library
- Multilingual outreach sections
The forum also contained dedicated discussion areas relating to:
- New World Order theories
- Armageddon
- Dajjal
- Conspiracy theories
- Ahmed al-Hassan’s teachings
EVIDENCE OF ABDULLAH HASHEM’S INVOLVEMENT
The archived forum records contain multiple discussion threads attributed directly to an account named “Abdullah Hashem.”
Examples include:
- “FEMA NATIONWIDE TEST AS ELENIN PASSES EARTH”
- “Abdullah Hashem appears on Iranian TV on the Show Raaz”
- “The Great Egyptian Democracy and Freedom Experiment”

While this does not by itself prove ownership of the forum, it demonstrates that Abdullah Hashem was an active public figure within the Hashem Studios network during 2011.
CONNECTION TO AHMED AL-HASSAN
One of the most significant historical findings is the forum’s own description of the Yamani Library.
The archived description states:
“The books and statements issued by Imam Ahmad al Hassan and his followers.”

This demonstrates that the Hashem Studios ecosystem was already promoting Ahmed al-Hassan’s teachings in 2011.
AROPL’S OWN TIMELINE CONFIRMATION
AROPL’s official historical timeline later confirmed:
“In 2011, Abdullah Hashem worked on gathering Ansar for Ahmed Al-Hassan.”

The same timeline states that between 2011 and 2014 Abdullah Hashem and a small group of followers worked on building media platforms dedicated to spreading Ahmed al-Hassan’s message worldwide.
HISTORICAL SIGNIFICANCE
The archival evidence demonstrates that the media, forum, publishing, and outreach infrastructure associated with Abdullah Hashem existed years before his public declaration as Aba Al-Sadiq and before the later emergence of the Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light.
The record shows continuity between:
- The Arrivals (2008)
- TADS
- Hashem Studios
- The Yamani Platform
- Ahmed al-Hassan outreach activities
- The later Black Banners movement
- The eventual formation of AROPL
The evidence therefore indicates that AROPL emerged from an already established online media and recruitment ecosystem that had been developing since at least 2008–2011.
