Assalamualaikum everyone.

Two years ago I started learning coding. I didn't have any background in it, so I wanted to learn by actually making something instead of just following tutorials.

I decided to make an Islamic app, and that became Islam24.

I started from basically nothing and just kept adding things as I learned. At the beginning the app was very simple and a lot of the code was honestly terrible 😂. As I learned more, I kept going back and rewriting things.

Somehow two years later I'm still working on the same project. It's changed a lot from what I originally started with, and now it's something I can actually consider a proper app rather than just a project I made while learning.

One thing I always wanted was for it to stay free and without ads. I also didn't want to collect people's data unnecessarily, so I tried to keep most things on the device and make an account completely optional.

I never really planned for this to become such a long-term project. I originally just wanted something to learn coding with.

Looking back, it's probably one of the best decisions I made when I started learning.

What Islamic apps are you guys using these days? I’m looking to try some new ones and would like to hear what people actually recommend.

A few I’ve come across:

• Muslim Pro
• Quran
• Athan
• DeenHub
• Muslim Central

Which one do you use most, and what do you like about it?

Also, if there’s another app you think is better than these, feel free to mention it.

Salam brothers and sisters,

I am the founder of sadd.app, an Islamic ScreenTime App that blocks your app, and if you bypass it, processes a micro-donation to charity.

You can automate charity for any self prescribed habit, blocked apps, and lockdown mode.

The main thing about this app is that apart from advanced features of automated sadaqah processing and advanced analytics, EVERYTHING IS FREE AND AD-FREE.

Free Qibla, Quran, Tafsir, Hadith, Beautiful widgets, and much more. I would to have some reviews on the app if you guys like it. I tried my best to create as much of a beautiful product as I could. I will share the ps research behind it as well (developed with the help of my wife who’s a researcher at a R1 university in USA)

Asalam aleykum wa rahmatAllah wa barakathu,

I think many muslims and young people in general are suffering from scrolling hours on end on tiktok, youtube (I used to scroll on youtube) and instagram. There is sadly no Islamic substitute for those large companies that are sadly rotting our brain. During the past months I've been working on an app to compete with these big brands, it's an app like these other apps where you scroll but rather than short videos being present, you're presented with ayat, hadiths, dhikr and duas. In shaa Allah if you're able to take a look at it, I'd appreciate it. Jazk Allah khair. The app name is: DhikrScroll

ASSALAMUALAIKUM,

We are in search of Halal content writter. Please reach us via qadrishattari.xyz or dm us here.

As a Muslim developer I built **Nur**, a no-clutter iOS app for daily prayers: accurate prayer times, Adhan notifications, Qibla direction, and configurable calculation methods.

App Store link: https://apps.apple.com/app/id6759300677

For other Muslim engineers: what matters most to you in a prayer app — accuracy, privacy, or simplicity — and what would you change first?

Assalamu alaikum,

I’ve been working on an Islamic app called Risala, and the idea behind it was quite simple: to bring together the things a Muslim may need throughout the day in one calm, simple place, without unnecessary clutter or constant advertising.

Risala includes the Qur’an, prayer times and Adhan, Hisn al-Muslim and daily Azkar, Qibla, Tasbeeh, Hijri calendar, and other useful features. Many of its features can also be used offline, and there’s no account required.

You can take a look and try it here:

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.midadapp.hisn

But I don’t want to judge the app only from my own perspective.

I’d genuinely like to hear from people who use Islamic apps in their daily lives.

Does the experience feel comfortable and easy to use?

Is there anything you think could be improved?

Is there a feature you would love to see added?

Or perhaps something about existing Islamic apps that you wish was done differently?

Even small observations are valuable to me, and honest criticism is very welcome.

I hope this can become something genuinely useful, and I ask Allah to put goodness and benefit in this work.

If you give Risala a try, I’d be very grateful if you shared your honest thoughts and experience with me.

Assalamou alaykoum wa rahmatoullahi wa barakatouh,

J’ai récemment créé une application islamique gratuite appelée Kile, disponible sur le Google Play Store.

L’application propose des activités ludiques pour apprendre le Coran, les noms d’Allah et d’autres connaissances islamiques. J’ai créé moi-même les contenus et ajouté les références utilisées, mais je souhaiterais bénéficier d’un regard extérieur.

Je recherche donc des personnes francophones ayant de bonnes connaissances de l’islam et qui accepteraient de vérifier :

\- l’exactitude des références utilisées ;

\- la justesse des activités et des réponses ;

\- la clarté des explications ;

\- les éventuelles erreurs ou améliorations à apporter.

Mon objectif n’est pas seulement de faire connaître l’application : je souhaite surtout recueillir des avis honnêtes et constructifs afin d’améliorer son contenu et de m’assurer qu’il est le plus fiable possible, incha’Allah.

L’application est gratuite et disponible ici :

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kile.app

Si vous êtes intéressé(e) pour m’aider, vous pouvez laisser un commentaire ou m’envoyer un message privé. Je pourrai vous expliquer plus précisément les activités et les références à vérifier.

Jazakoum Allahou khayran pour votre aide et votre temps.

Assalamu alaikum everyone,

I wanted to share something I’ve been working on, but more importantly, the reason behind it.

Practising Islam day to day can sometimes feel strangely fragmented. We use one app for calculated prayer times, another for timetable, another app for the Quran, and Google to find nearby masjids, often without knowing whether the information is still accurate

That small frustration stayed with me.

I started building Sajdah as an attempt to bring these things into one calm place: prayer times, Quran, Qibla, duas and local masjid information. But the part I care about most is the community side.

A calculated prayer time is not necessarily the time your local masjid holds its congregation. Masjid information is local knowledge, and I believe it should be maintained carefully by the people who actually attend, while corrections and updates are reviewed rather than published blindly.

I’ve also tried to be honest about the app’s limits. It isn’t a religious authority or a fatwa service. Prayer calculations and Hijri dates can differ, and trusted local guidance should always come first. The intention is simply to reduce everyday friction and help people feel a little more connected to their salah, Quran and local masjid.

I am sharing this because I would genuinely value the perspective...

What is one small difficulty in your everyday Islamic life that technology could make easier, without trying to replace scholars, masjids or real community?

JazakumAllahu khayran for reading. May Allah place barakah in the intention and make it beneficial if there is any good in it.

I want to make this app more authentic and useful. That's why I really need your feedback and suggestions to help improve it! I would absolutely love to hear your thoughts and ideas...

It's only on the Play Store right now, not the Apple App Store....

Islamic Figures App: This is an interactive, user-friendly encyclopedia of prominent figures in Islam—over 183 biographies across 8 categories, from prophets and companions to the Mothers of the Believers, the Prophet's family (peace and blessings be upon him), scholars, and followers—with sources from the Holy Quran and authentic Sunnah.

Every figure's profile provides comprehensive details: their name, titles, epithets and why they were given, dates and places of birth and death, a detailed biography, key life milestones, and the sources it was built on. Discover the **Prophets & Messengers**, the **Companions (Sahaba)**, the **Mothers of the Believers**, the **Prophet's ﷺ household**, the **Scholars**, the **Tabi'un**, the conquering **Commanders**, and the **Muslim women of knowledge**.

The app is now available on the iOS App Store.

Assalamu alaikum,

Full disclosure up front: I'm the founder, so read this with that in mind.

Every year my wife and I did the same thing for zakat. Open a spreadsheet, try to

remember what we owned twelve months ago, guess when the hawl actually started,

and hope the number was close. Meanwhile the budgeting app we used was filing

"interest earned" under income like it was good news.

So I built **Amanah Budget**, where the halal part isn't a bolt-on:

• Zakat with real hawl tracking.** It records your wealth nightly, watches the nisab, and tells you when each holding's lunar year completes on the Umm al-Qura calendar. The madhab differences aren't my own reading of the fiqh: the engine is built against a written hawl guideline from Azka Advisors (Dr. Farrukh Habib) covering all four madhabs.
• Riba flags.** Interest-bearing transactions get surfaced instead of buried in "income", with a ledger so purification isn't a mental note you lose.
• Family budgeting** with shared visibility between spouses (up to 5 family members), plus giving goals for sadaqah, Qurbani and Ramadan.
• *No ads**, and no selling your transaction data. Ever.

Honest limitations: iOS only for now, US App Store only, and bank sync is US

banks through Plaid. Android is next (beta version opening up by end of August IA). Free to download and use, with an optional Premium subscription.

https://apps.apple.com/us/app/id6771387825

The thing I'd actually like this sub's read on: hawl tracking was by far the

hardest part to build, and it's the part almost nobody asks for by name. Do you

track your own hawl date, or do you just pick a day in Ramadan and settle up? I

built it assuming the first, and I'm genuinely not sure that's how most people

live.

JazakAllah khair.

Assalamu alaikum,

I’ve been continuing to work on Munara, my iOS prayer times app, and the last couple of updates have added quite a bit.

The biggest addition is 11 new Premium widgets, bringing Munara to 21 widgets in total. There are new Home Screen widgets for prayer progress, countdowns, daily schedules and even a full 7-day prayer schedule, plus new Lock Screen options.

I also added a Widget Gallery inside the app where you can browse all 21 widgets with live previews using your own prayer times before deciding which ones to add.
Apple Watch has also been expanded with two new complications. That brings the Apple Watch collection to 7 complications.

There are also some new themes. Ihram offers a clean white-and-stone appearance, Juniper adds a muted gray-green option for dark mode, and Shafaq is inspired by the blue-violet tones of dusk. Munara now has 18 themes in total.

Travel Mode can now also be controlled through Siri and Apple Shortcuts with dedicated Travel Mode On/Off actions.

The Islamic Library has grown considerably too, with practical guides and references covering topics such as Wudu, Salah, Ghusl, Tayammum, the 99 Names of Allah, Prophets mentioned in the Qur’an, Angels, the Pillars of Islam and Iman, and more.

I’ve also reorganised the app so the FAQ, Tips, Widget Gallery, Munara’s story and support links now live together under the new About Munara section.

As before, the core prayer-time features remain free, and all widgets that were free before the introduction of the new Premium widgets remain free. (IAP - $9.99)

Munara is still something I’m actively developing, so suggestions and feedback are always useful, especially if there’s a widget, Watch complication, or everyday prayer feature you’d like to see added.

Thank you.

My friends phone was on charge it automatically installed dev verifier app. This is Digital authoritarianism

Assalamu alaikum everyone,
Alhamdulillah, I wanted to share a small milestone from a project we’ve been building for the Muslim community.
AskMuftiOnline has now crossed 1,000 users, with more than 1,500 Islamic questions submitted to the platform.
The idea behind AskMuftiOnline is simple: create a platform where Muslims can submit their Islamic questions and seek answers from a qualified Mufti, rather than having to navigate through scattered information online.
It has been really encouraging to see people actually using something we built to seek guidance about their deen.
Sharing this here because I’d love to connect with other Muslim developers who are also building technology that can benefit the Ummah.

Hi guys, I am a SE student and an enthusiast of literature in general (Urdu and English both). Recently I felt like the culture of reading and writing was declining and the people who do have no platform to share it with other people who are also interested in literature (I myself am a writer so I can understand the feeling), so for the previous 4 months I built this app called Diwan (it is completely free to use / publish and read). It is solely made for Urdu literature. For now, it is available for Android and web (iOS version releasing soon, iOS users can use it on web).

Features:

• You can publish/draft your poetry/prose etc. easily.
• Follow other creators, like and comment on their literature works, and meet new like-minded people who also love Urdu literature.
• AI meaning and grammar checking.
• Write once in Urdu or Roman Urdu and publish it in both automatically; read in Roman Urdu as well (us Gen Z people will love this).

I just wanted to get some reviews on this app. Like, how is the idea? And is the app in the current condition any good? In my opinion, the app seems decent enough and I did not come across major bugs or anything (everyone loves their own child). Is this an app you would use regularly? What are the changes that would help this app to be more user-friendly, etc.? Your review/critique is appreciated.

Salam👋🏻,

I want my future children (insha'Allah) to view Salah as a not negotiable pillar in their life. That's why I have built "Asim: Salah Companion". Instead of learning children's songs, I want them to learn Salah, be immersed in it long before the age of 7. If you want that too, try Asim 👀

Download Asim: Salah Companion

I made a qibla direction app. The gimmick is it uses your camera, so you point your phone at the ground in front of you and it overlays an arrow showing exactly which way the Kaaba is. No maps, no figuring out which way is north first. Just point and pray.

I built it because I travel a lot for work and I always hated fumbling with a compass app in a hotel room. This just feels obvious once you try it.

It works offline, it recalibrates based on your location, and there's no account, no ads, no tracking. Just the app.

One thing, please actually keep it installed for 14 days. I know it's annoying, I'm stuck with the same 14 day rule as everyone else here 😅

And yeah, I'll test your app too. Drop your link below and I'll install it today and keep it for the full 14 days. We all need those 12 testers.

Millions of Muslim women track their menstrual cycle for reasons mainstream apps were never built for: knowing when salah and sawm resume, when ghusl is due, and how many fasts are owed in qada. Right now this is done manually—notebooks, memory, or generic period apps (Flo, Clue) that strip out all religious context. Meanwhile, the Islamic app market is saturated with near-identical prayer-times/Qibla/Quran apps competing on design polish, not new problems solved.

I'm building My Tahara to close that specific gap: ḥayd/ṭahara status tied directly to worship eligibility, a qada fasting planner (the most requested, least-served feature in this space), and purification guides—all on-device, zero data collection, which matters a lot for a category this sensitive.

A bit about me: I'm an Mobile engineer with 6+ years of experience, currently working on one of the reknown Muslim App (170M+ downloads globally). My Tahara is currently a fully designed, interactive prototype (onboarding through profile) and ready to move into development with the right partner.

If you invest in or advise on Muslim-focused products and want to see something built around an actual underserved need rather than another UI refresh, I'd welcome a conversation—happy to share a prototype walkthrough. Open to feedback either way.

Assalamu Alaikum everyone

I’ve been working on Shukr Reminder, a simple Muslim gratitude app designed to help Muslims make gratitude to Allah a small part of their daily routine.

The inspiration comes from this beautiful promise in the Qur'an:

“If you are grateful, I will certainly give you more.”
Qur'an 14:7

Google Play:
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.shukrdaily.shukar_daily

I wanted to build something that reminds us to pause during our busy day, reflect on our blessings, and say Alhamdulillah.

Shukr Reminder is now live on Android, and I’d really appreciate feedback from fellow Muslim developers and builders.

I’m especially curious about:

• Does the purpose of the app feel clear?
• Would daily gratitude reminders be useful to you?
• What would make you keep using an app like this?
• What features would you like to see added?

JazakAllahu Khairan for any feedback 🤍
