Important — please read

This library is not “just audio”. It is our work: curated, organized and prepared for this radio system. We share it with customers in trust, and we ask you to respect our haqq (right) and the trust between us.

  • Do not share this password or the downloaded files with anyone.
  • The library is for the purchaser only and must not be uploaded or distributed (Drive/WhatsApp/forums, etc.).
  • No duplication to multiple cards for friends or family.
  • No commercial use or resale in any form.

If someone needs the library, please ask them to purchase it from us directly. May Allah put barakah in what is earned fairly.

Before you start

  • Turn off the radio, remove the microSD card, and insert it into your computer using a card reader or adapter.
  • You may update the original SD card we provided — that is completely fine.
  • Optional: if you have a spare 32GB microSD card, you can test the update on that one first.
  • A spare card must show at least ~29GB usable capacity on your computer.
  • Set aside 30–60 minutes. Copying 15,000+ files takes a while, and the card reader speed decides how long.
If your current card has custom favorites or settings you want to keep, copy them to a folder on your computer before formatting.

1) Download the new library

Download the file, unzip it, then open Windows or Mac below.

Let the download finish completely before you continue. A partial ZIP will fail to unzip.
Reminder: for purchaser use only — please don’t share the files or the password.
01

Remove the card and connect it

  • Turn off the radio and remove the microSD card.
  • Insert it into your PC using a microSD adapter or USB card reader.
  • Check that the card appears in File Explorer.
02

Format the card as FAT32

  • Right-click StartDisk Management.
  • Find the SD card (match it by size) → right-click → Format.
  • File system: FAT32 · Allocation unit size: Default · Quick format: ✔️
  • No FAT32 option? A 32GB card sits right at the limit and Windows sometimes hides it. Right-click StartTerminal (Admin) and run format X: /FS:FAT32 /Q — replace X with the card’s drive letter. Double-check the letter before pressing Enter.
03

Unzip and copy

  • Right-click the ZIP → Extract all.
  • Open the folder Hasanat Library, select everything inside it, and copy it to the SD card.
  • Wait until copying finishes completely — don’t unplug early.
03b

Optional: copy in a fixed order

  • Only needed if the radio lists tracks in the wrong order after step 03.
  • Put the folder Hasanat Library on your Desktop, set the drive letter below, then copy the script.
  • Right-click StartTerminal or Windows PowerShell, paste, press Enter, and wait.
Folder name on Desktop
Don’t rename it after unzipping

Copy, then paste into PowerShell:

          
04

Eject safely

  • Click Safely remove hardware in the taskbar and eject the card or reader.
  • Wait for the “safe to remove” message, then unplug.
05

Test it in the radio

  • Insert the card into the radio and switch it on.
  • Check that the new library appears and plays.
On a Mac, don’t drag and drop. Finder writes the files in an order the radio can’t follow. Use the Terminal script in step 06 instead.
Folder name: after unzipping, the folder is called Hasanat Library. Leave the name exactly as it is.
01

Remove the card and connect it

  • Turn off the radio and remove the microSD card.
  • Insert it into your Mac using a microSD adapter or USB card reader.
  • Check that the card appears in Finder.
02

Open Disk Utility

  • Finder → ApplicationsUtilitiesDisk Utility.
  • Or press Command + Space, type “Disk Utility”, press Enter.
03

Show all devices

  • In the menu bar: View → Show All Devices.
  • Select the SD card device — the top entry, not the indented volume underneath it.
04

Erase the card

  • Click Erase and set:
  • Name: HASANAT_SD
  • Format: MS-DOS (FAT) · Scheme: Master Boot Record
  • Click Erase, then Done.
05

Unzip and move the folder to your Desktop

  • Unzip the download.
  • Move the folder Hasanat Library directly onto your Desktop — not inside another folder.
  • Leave the folder name unchanged.
06

Copy with the script

  • Check that the two names below match what’s on your Mac, then copy the script.
  • Open Terminal (Command + Space, type “Terminal”), paste, press Enter.
  • Leave the window open until you see the finished message.
Folder name on Desktop
Default after unzipping: Hasanat Library
SD card name in Finder
Must match the name in the Finder sidebar exactly
Copy, then paste into Terminal:

          
07

Eject properly

  • In Finder, click the eject icon next to the card, or right-click → Eject.
  • Wait until it disappears from Finder, then unplug the reader.
08

Test it in the radio

  • Insert the card into the radio and switch it on.
  • Check that the library appears and plays.

Troubleshooting

Most problems come from one of these. Work down the list.

  • The card doesn’t appear on the computer: re-insert it, try another USB port, then try a different reader or adapter. Cheap adapters fail often.
  • Mac: “Erase” is greyed out: go to View → Show All Devices and select the SD card device (the top entry), not the volume below it.
  • Mac: the script says the folder wasn’t found: the folder must be named Hasanat Library and sit directly on your Desktop. If iCloud Desktop sync is on, wait until the folder shows no cloud icon.
  • Mac: “not enough space”: the card is smaller than the library. Use a 32GB card that shows around 29–30GB usable.
  • The radio doesn’t read the card: re-check that you formatted it as FAT32 / MS-DOS (FAT) with Master Boot Record, and that you ejected before unplugging.
  • Capacity looks wrong (for example 7–8GB): the card should show roughly 29–30GB usable. If it’s far lower, the card is fake or failing — use a different one.
  • Tracks play in the wrong order: on Mac, re-run the script instead of dragging files. On Windows, use the optional script in step 03b.
  • Copying stops partway: format the card again and start over. A card that fails twice should be replaced.
  • Mac keeps giving trouble: if you can borrow a Windows PC, that route is simpler and more reliable.
Still stuck? Unzip the download again and repeat the steps carefully — a single renamed folder is the most common cause.
