About

You regularly pray your prayers in Arabic, but do not really understand what you're saying?

This app will help you make your prayers in English (or German or Turkish) to make them more meaningful to you. To do this, leave your device lying in front of you during the prayer and simply read the text from there. Or alternatively, configure the computer voice audio mode and listen to the text with your headphones during the prayer, while keeping your phone in your pocket. The app is purposely kept simple and reduced to the basic functions so that it does not contain distracting elements such as animations or advertising.

Praying using words that are not in the Quran will render your prayer as invalid

Hello,

I would like to thank the developers of this application for taking the time and effort to create it ❤. But it seems that the developer is not aware that praying with the translation of the Quran is not allowed and will void your prayer. You must read at least the Al-Fatiha Surah in Arabic is order for your prayer to be valid (even if you don't understand it).

Thanks for your time.

Add more Surahs, including longer ones

There's still lots of short Surahs that should be added to the app. Also longer Surahs can be added with an option to turn them off for those who don't have enough time for longer prayers.

Additionally, a reminder warning could be added (as an option) so users who usually want to include longer prayers are reminded of this setting being active and the possibility to turn it off for this prayer only. It's like a "Ask me every time" feature.

But even when longer prayers are turned on, there should be a time limit (which can be guessed with NLP framework). Very long prayers (like Bakara) shouldn't be included as part of this feature. They require extra consideration to prevent splitting a surah and losing context.

Countdown doesn't continue in background

Expected Behavior

When using the app with headphones and the prayer gets started, locking the phone should continue with the prayer during the countdown.

Actual Behavior

Locking after the countdown works, but locking during the countdown stops the prayer.
bug

Support "very long" prayers by persisting last part

Problem Statement

Currently, it's only possible to recite "short", "medium" or "long" recitations.

Suggested Solution

Add support for reciting "very long" prayers by splitting them up to parts in places where the flow of the text is not destroyed and continuing from the last place on the next prayer. This should be configurable and if one is currently in the middle of a Surah, it should be shown somehow in the chooser UI.

Support "long" Surahs that can fit into one 4 Rakat prayer

Problem Statement

Currently, only short and medium sizes Surahs can be selected.

Suggested Solution

Add support for recitations, that can be split into up to 4 parts of medium size and be recited in one 4 Rakat prayer.
enhancement

opened by Jeehut 0
Add an audio-only mode

While the app works fine on iPads (with their large screens) and at home (where no one can judge you based on the fact that you're reading from a screen), there should also be an audio-only mode. This will allow users to use the app with their phone given they wear (bluetooth) headphones. Synthesized voices could be used to read out the texts.

This would also open up the app for an entirely new group of people sight-impaired people who might struggle with other methods of learning prayers and doing them. Prayers should be as accessible as possible. So the rest of the app should also be checked for accessibility support as part of this.

Prevent duplicate random Surah on same day

To prevent the same Surah to be randomly chosen again on (roughly) the same day, the app should memorize the last few Surah and exclude them from the random set. This feature should be turned on by default and probably does not need a setting if the memorized Surah count is kept low, e.g. at 5.

opened by Jeehut 0
Improve wording for surah names

Currently for example in turkish turning on the surah names for changing texts is "degisen metin adi" which is pretty unclear. Easier would be to explicitly state that it's about surah, not about "metin" (text) in general.
enhancement

opened by Jeehut 0
Changing the language could lead to a crash on split recitations

Expected Behavior

The app should never crash. When changing a language, the current position in a split recitation should be reset.

Actual Behavior

When inside a recitation between prayers and changing the language, it might be the case that the new language doesn't have as many parts in the recitation as the current position of the previous language. The app might crash due to a stack overflow.
bug

Add compass for finding Kaba direction before prayer

Problem Statement

Currently the user has to use another app to detect the direction of Kaba.

Suggested Solution

Add a compass feature in the settings to check the direction of Kaba before starting the prayer.
