Mount Qaf: Is It Actually Hidden in Antarctica? Islamic Movie 2026

Mount Qaf: Is It Actually Hidden in Antarctica? Islamic Movie 2026 Could the ancient accounts of Mount Qaf be connected to Antarctica? Explore Islamic traditions, polar expeditions and discoveries beneath the ice in this documentary from Religious Story TV. Rumi described an emerald mountain beside vast fields of snow. Other accounts speak of distant cities, shining walls and people who know nothing of our world. Why are these stories being compared with Antarctica—and how far does the evidence support the connection? Our journey takes us from the writings of Rumi and Erzurumlu Ibrahim Hakki to the voyages of Ernest Shackleton and Admiral Richard Byrd. We examine the disputed interpretations of the Piri Reis map, the real German Antarctic expedition and the stories that grew around Operation Highjump. 00:00 Antarctica Mysteries: Mount Qaf and the World Beneath the Ice 03:38 Shackleton’s Endurance: Surviving Antarctica 08:38 Shackleton’s Mysterious Fourth Companion 11:11 The Antarctic Treaty and Restricted Exploration 12:29 Piri Reis Map: Antarctica Without Ice? 13:47 Antarctica’s Ancient Forests and Lost World 17:03 Nazi Antarctica Expedition and Secret Base 211 21:59 Operation Highjump: Admiral Byrd’s Antarctic Mission 24:48 Admiral Byrd’s Secret Diary and Hollow Earth Claims 28:01 Antarctica Pyramids and Lost Civilization Claims 31:11 Rothschild Island: Is Shaytan’s Throne in Antarctica? 33:19 Shaytan’s Throne and Dajjal: What the Hadiths Say 35:21 Lake Vostok: Hidden Life Beneath Antarctica 38:35 Blood Falls: Antarctica’s Red Waterfall Explained 40:19 Mount Erebus: Antarctica’s Gold-Producing Volcano 41:38 ANITA: Mysterious Signals Beneath the Ice 44:03 Mount Qaf in Islamic Tradition: Ibrahim Hakki’s Marifatname 46:39 Jabulqa and Jabulsa: Legends of Hidden Cities 53:16 Is Mount Qaf Mentioned in the Quran? 54:35 Dhul-Qarnayn and the Emerald Mountain in Rumi’s Masnavi 57:05 The Simurgh and Mount Qaf in Sufi Tradition 59:40 Mount Qaf and Antarctica: Exploring the Connection 1:01:49 The Story Behind Religious Story TV Along the way, we explore Antarctica’s ancient forests, green icebergs, hidden lakes and unusual signals recorded by the ANITA experiment. In this documentary: • Mount Qaf in Islamic literature and interpretations of Surah Qaf • Jabalqa and Jabalasa: the mysterious cities of old accounts • Rumi’s Masnavi and Ibrahim Hakki’s Marifetname • Shackleton’s survival story and the mysterious “fourth presence” • The Piri Reis map and claims of an ice-free Antarctica • Nazi expeditions, Operation Highjump and Byrd’s alleged secret diary • Lake Vostok, Blood Falls and Mount Erebus • Antarctic signals, underground worlds and the limits of what we know • The Simurgh and Attar’s spiritual journey Historical accounts, religious traditions, scientific findings and modern speculation do not carry the same weight. The Mount Qaf–Antarctica connection remains unproven, and the authenticity of the long Jabalqa–Jabalasa narration has not been established. This documentary explores these accounts without presenting them as confirmed geography or authenticated prophetic teachings. REFERENCES Quran and Hadith 1.The Quran.
