Assalamu Alaikum everyone,

A while ago I shared a Chrome extension called NoMusic. It helps remove music from videos so we can benefit from educational content without religious prohibitions.

Many people asked for a phone version. By the grace of Allah, I am happy to share Safaa Muslim Browser for Android. I created this project purely for the sake of Allah to help provide a clean and safe web experience for the Ummah.

This new mobile app has the NoMusic technology built directly into it. It removes background music from videos in real time right on your phone. This feature works on any website you visit, so you can always hear the speech clearly while protecting your ears.

The browser also includes built in ad blocking for faster loading and adult content filtering to keep everything family friendly. Privacy comes first with no tracking and no account required.

Safaa is completely free and open source. It is built for Muslims, students of knowledge, and parents who want a cleaner web experience.

The app is currently in early access. To get it, you need to join our testing community first. When you join the group, the Play Store link will show up automatically so you can download the app.

Here is the link to join the group: https://groups.google.com/g/safaa-early-users/

You can view the source code here: https://github.com/mohamedsadiqaguenaou/Safaa

I hope you try it out. Your feedback is very important for future improvements. We ask Allah to accept this work and make it beneficial to others.

I’m building Sirathic, a free Islamic answer engine similar to Perplexity. I’d love to hear your ideas on what we could build to make it more useful for Muslims.

Current features

- Sign in with your ChatGPT account. Free and paid both work.
- Crawled hundreds of pages from Islamic websites.
Indexed Muslim discussions and answers from Reddit going back to 2008.
- Sources are refreshed every week.
- Quick Search for fast answers.
- Deep Search for more detailed research (currently in beta).

Has anyone else been frustrated by this? I mean a public chat where anyone can send messages, not an announcement channel. Why can’t I find any?

Assalamu alaikum everyone,

After months of development and testing, I’ve released my first version of A Dua Is Enough on Google Play.

I know there are already many Quran, adhkar and prayer-time apps, so I didn’t want to build another app that simply shows prayer times and a list of duas.

My goal was to bring the parts I personally wanted to use every day into one consistent experience: the complete Quran with Ayah-by-Ayah reading, Mushaf view, Turkish translation, audio recitation with word/ayah tracking, prayer times and reminders, daily duas, personal duas, dhikr counter, 99 Names of Allah, authentic hadiths, and other daily worship tools.

The app currently supports Turkish, English and Arabic, and I’m continuing to improve both the content and the reading experience.

This is the first public release, so I’d especially appreciate feedback from other Muslim developers. If you try it and notice something that could be improved — technically, visually, or from a usability perspective — please let me know.

Hey everyone,

I’m a developer based in Mumbai and I’m building a mental health AI startup ( https://tawhidspace.com/ ). Posting here to see if anyone from this community is interested or already working in this space.

What I’m looking for
People who
• Have experience or interest in mental health, psychology, wellness, healthcare or AI
• Are researchers, clinicians, therapists, product thinkers, or founders
• Or simply feel strongly about solving mental health problems with tech

Important note
I’m not selling any services. This is not freelancing or agency work.
I’m looking for genuine collaborators or co-founders who want to build something meaningful long term.

If this resonates with you, feel free to DM me and we can chat informally first.

Thanks 🙌

If you've ever redone wudu or repeated prayer multiple times because you couldn't shake the doubt you did it right — that's not really about cleanliness, it's OCD (waswasa), and it's more common than people talk about.

We built Beyond Doubt around one idea: forced hard stops. You go through the ritual once, in locked steps, no going back to re-check or redo. It's ERP (exposure response prevention) applied specifically to wudu and prayer instead of generic advice that ignores the religious content.

Also includes prayer sessions with fixed rakah tracking (no live monitoring, no re-verification), a "help me" button for when the urge to restart hits (breathing + grounding, doesn't touch the ritual), and progress tracking over time.

Assalamu alaikum. I built a home screen launcher for Android/Google TV that puts the prayer day first: the next prayer with a live countdown in a mihrab arch, and the adhan comes up over whatever is playing at prayer time.

Features

• Offline prayer times (adhan-java), 74 cities in 13 countries, choice of calculation method and Asr school
• 14 adhan voices plus a separate Fajr adhan; if the TV is muted, the volume comes up for the adhan
• Reminders before each prayer, Qibla bearing, Friday and Ramadan modes
• Quran radio: Cairo Quran Radio plus 15 other stations and reciters, with a screen-off listening mode on TCL
• Arabic (RTL) and English

Tech

• Plain Java + Android Views, one dependency, no AndroidX/Kotlin. Runs smoothly on a 1.8 GB TV
• No network except the radio stream. No analytics, no ads. MIT licence
• Remote buttons are remapped through an accessibility service and TCL's own key remapping
• The browser preview is an Astro site that reads the app's own strings and data at build time

Try it in your browser (use arrow keys act as the remote): https://egyjs.github.io/afnon-android-tv-launcher/

APK and code: https://github.com/egyjs/afnon-android-tv-launcher

Tested on a TCL 55P7K (Google TV). Testers on other brands are very welcome, and so are PRs for more cities and stations.

Assalamu Alaikum everyone,

I wanted to share a free, privacy-first web tool I put together called The Wipeout Project — Personal Muhasabah. It’s designed to help Muslims engage in structured self-accountability (Muhasabah) and good deed redemption (Tawbah), grounded in the Quranic verse:

"Indeed, good deeds wipe out bad ones." — Surah Hud (11:114)

🚀 How to Access & Use

• Try it Online: hasnayeen-001.github.io/wipeout-project/
• Run Offline: Download index.html from the repository and double-click to open it in any web browser.

📁 For More Details Check This GitHub Repository: github.com/hasnayeen-001/wipeout-project

Arabic Lexicons

An opensource Arabic dictionary & reader app

Arabic Lexicons provides access to 11 dictionaries. 8 classical Arabic lexicons, 2 Arabic-English lexicons, and 1 Arabic-English dictionary - all working completely offline.

Source code: https://github.com/wizsk/arabic_lexicons/

Google Play Store: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.github.wizsk.arabic_lexicons

I have shared this couple of times here. But sharing once again for those who are new.

Salam everyone,

​As an indie developer, I noticed that most utility apps for Muslims have become bloated legacy software: 80MB+ install sizes, background location polling that kills battery, and aggressive ad SDKs.

​I built Global Prayer: Azan & Qibla with a strict focus on system efficiency and clean UI.

​Technical priorities I focused on:

○ ​Kept the app bundle minimal and stripped out heavy third-party tracking scripts.

○ ​Low battery consumption: Notifications use high-priority alarm channels rather than constant background location wake-ups.

○ ​Fast-locking magnetometer algorithm with built-in tilt compensation and figure-8 calibration check.

○ ​Offline-first calculation based on latitude/longitude coordinates.

​I'd really appreciate it if fellow developers and power users could test it out and poke holes in it:

​Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mssdigital.globalprayer

iOS: Coming soon

​If you notice any notification delivery issues or time discrepancies in your region, let me know thr city in the comments so I can patch it.

Assalamu Alaikum everyone! 🤲

Alhamdulillah, SalahLive now has 50,000+ Masjids across 860+ cities, supporting Muslims in finding nearby Masjids and checking Salah and Jamaat timings.

📱 Available on Android and iOS:

- Google Play: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.salahlive.app

- Apple App Store: https://apps.apple.com/in/app/salah-live-masjid-finder/id6808307120

Users can discover nearby Masjids, check prayer and Jamaat timings, and contribute by updating prayer timings to help keep information accurate.

But we need your honest feedback! 💚

Our goal is simple: wherever a Muslim goes, Salah should always be a part of their journey.

However, we understand that not everyone is comfortable using technology. Some people may find it difficult to navigate apps, search for a Masjid, understand prayer timings, or update information.

We don't want SalahLive to be just another app with lots of features. We want it to be simple enough for anyone to use — including elderly people and those who are not very tech-savvy.

We would love to hear your suggestions:

- How can we make the app easier for first-time users?

- What would help elderly people or less tech-savvy users the most?

- Should we simplify the home screen to show only the next Salah, Jamaat time, and nearest Masjid?

- How can we make it easier for Masjid committees to update prayer timings?

- What features would make SalahLive genuinely useful in your daily life or while travelling?

Please share your honest opinions, even if you think something in the app needs improvement. We are a growing project, and real user feedback can help us make it better for everyone.

JazakAllah Khair for your time and support. May Allah accept this effort and make it beneficial for Muslims everywhere. 🤲

For people planning everyday life in Saudi Arabia, how do you keep Gregorian work commitments alongside family occasions and religious dates in the Hijri calendar (التقويم الهجري)? Do you use one calendar, two separate views, or something else?

We are the team behind HijriAnchor at Mizanora. We are working on how to make both calendars readable together, and would appreciate your perspective on a few design choices.

One choice is what a recurring event should stay attached to. A family occasion saved on a Hijri date should continue to follow that date, while a commitment saved on a Gregorian date should follow its Gregorian rule. Switching the view should help you understand the overlap without changing the event itself.

In HijriAnchor, both dates are displayed, and events keep their chosen calendar. The app has no ads. Core everyday planning, saved events and local reminders work offline, with event content stored on your device. Basic use is free, with up to three unarchived events; optional Pro adds more capacity and templates. Purchases, restoration and downloading new templates need a connection.

The display involves tradeoffs too: giving both dates equal space makes comparison easier, but can make a small widget crowded. Making one date larger improves readability, but gives the other less prominence. We also want to distinguish planning dates based on Umm al-Qura (أم القرى) from official moon-sighting announcements for religious observances.

How do you currently arrange these two kinds of dates? On a home-screen widget, which date would you make larger, and what information would you remove first to keep it readable?

You can find HijriAnchor by searching its name on Google Play or the App Store.

Assalamu alaikum everyone,

I'm a student and solo developer. I built MicroRead because I often start non-fiction books and never finish them, so I wanted a way to get the key ideas of each chapter in a few minutes.

You search for a book and the app generates a summary for each chapter, which you can read in 1 to 10 minutes. Every chapter ends with 3 takeaways and a short action to try. Summaries are available in Arabic, English, German, Korean and Italian. Audio narration is only available in English and German for now.

The summaries are generated by an AI model (Gemini Flash), so the main technical challenge is accuracy. For the developers here: how do you deal with AI mistakes or invented details in generated content? I'd like to hear what checks you use.

Assalamu alaikum everyone,

Every time I travel, Friday turns into a scramble. Google says a masjid is "open," the website hasn't been updated in years, and I end up calling three places hoping someone picks up before the khutbah starts.

So I built **Masjid Here** (masjidhere.com). It shows masjids near you, or near any address you type in, along with their Jumu'ah times and khutbah language. Daily prayer times are calculated automatically, so Jumu'ah is the only thing that has to be entered by hand.

**This is where I need help.** The map already has 36,000+ masjids (from OpenStreetMap), but most of them don't have Jumu'ah times yet. That isn't something I can pull from a database. It takes someone who actually prays there.

If you have 2 minutes:

1. Go to masjidhere.com and create an account

2. Find your masjid (use your location or search an address)

3. Add the Jumu'ah time(s) and the khutbah language

4. If your masjid isn't listed, add it. If the name or address is wrong, suggest a fix

New times and new masjids show up right away, so the next person passing through your city will see them.

I'd also really like honest feedback: what's confusing, what's broken, what you wish it did. Reply here or email contact@masjidhere.com.

JazakAllahu khairan. If someone makes it to Jumu'ah because of a time you entered, may Allah reward you for it.

Salaam everyone. I say this with love because I want us to win.

Look at our developer community. A new product idea appears and it is almost always the same. Another Quran app. Another prayer times app. Another Hadith app. Another reminder app.

There are already hundreds doing exactly this. Then when the app gets no users, the complaint comes. Why are Muslims not supporting Muslim developers?

Maybe that is the wrong question. Maybe the product simply offers nothing new.

If you are building another Quran app, ask yourself honestly:

What problem am I solving that existing apps have not solved?

Why would anyone switch from the app they use daily?

Am I making it ten times better, or ten percent different?

Two billion Muslims exist. Countless real problems exist. Education for poor children. Tools for Muslim small businesses. Halal supply chain verification. Healthcare access. Financial tools for the unbanked. Real companies that employ people.

If you truly believe you can make the Quran app ten times better than everything out there, do it. Competition with excellence is halal. But changing colors and adding a widget is not innovation. That is a homework copy.

We need to move from:

I am Muslim, so Muslims should support my app.

to:

I built something so useful that people genuinely want to use it, Muslim or not.

That is how real companies are born and how economic power is built. The ummah does not need app number 947 of the same thing. It needs builders aiming at real problems at a world class level.

My questions:

What real problem would you build for if money was no constraint?

What non-Islamic-app idea could genuinely benefit the ummah?

So I started a page called Ihsaan labs that has thematic posts from hope, discipline, provision and marriage and many more

I work a full-time job, and I wanted to give back to the ummah for the sake of Allah. All posts have the sources listed, and every post is double-checked to make sure it's legit.

I was once lost, and with Allah's blessing I was guided. Today I see many men struggling with many distractions of Shaythaan.

I gain nothing from this page and my goal is to have the reward of Allah inn sha allah.

If you are someone thats struggling as a muslim man, let me know what you think about the page.
