Muslim: Qibla, Prayer Times – Free Android Islamic Companion

What is Muslim: Qibla, Prayer Times?

Muslim: Qibla, Prayer Times is a free Android application developed by Dragon Sky. It brings together several everyday Islamic utilities—such as a Qibla finder, prayer‑time schedule, and basic worship aids—into a single, easy‑to‑use interface.

Main features

• Qibla finder: Uses the device’s compass and location services to point toward the Kaaba in Mecca, helping users align their prayers wherever they are.
• Prayer‑time schedule: Calculates daily prayer times based on the user’s current location and displays them in a clear list.
• Azan alerts: Optional notifications remind users of upcoming prayer times.
• Digital tasbih: A simple counter for dhikr that can be reset or saved as needed.
• Quran snippets: Provides short passages of the Qur’an with Arabic text and an English translation for quick reference.
• Daily duas: A collection of common supplications presented in Arabic with translation.
• Islamic calendar: Shows both Gregorian and Hijri dates, helping users keep track of important events.

How it works

The app relies on the device’s GPS and compass to determine the user’s position. Once the location is known, the Qibla direction is calculated mathematically, and prayer times are derived from standard calculation methods that adjust for latitude, longitude, and local time zone. Users can enable or disable sound alerts for each prayer, and the tasbih counter works offline without any network connection.

Practical uses

• Travelers can quickly find the correct direction for Salah without needing a separate compass.
• Students and professionals can set discreet reminders to stay on schedule for the five daily prayers.
• Anyone looking for a convenient place to read short Qur’an passages or recite daily duas can do so without opening multiple apps.

Installation information

The application is distributed as a free download from the Google Play Store. Installation follows the standard Android process: tap “Install,” grant location permission when prompted (required for Qibla and prayer‑time calculations), and launch the app.

Things to know before installing

• The app requires location access to provide accurate Qibla direction and prayer times.
• Compass accuracy may vary depending on the device’s hardware and surrounding magnetic interference.
• All content is provided offline after the initial download; no additional data usage is required for core features.

Who may find it useful?

Muslim: Qibla, Prayer Times is suited for anyone who wants a lightweight, all‑in‑one tool for daily worship. It is especially handy for travelers, students, and anyone who prefers a single app rather than juggling multiple utilities.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an internet connection?

No. Once installed, the Qibla finder, prayer‑time calculations and tasbih counter work entirely offline. An internet connection is only needed for the initial download.

Can I customize the azan sound?

The app includes a built‑in alert tone. Users can enable or disable the sound, but custom audio files are not supported.

Is my data private?

The app only requests location permission to compute Qibla direction and prayer times. It does not collect personal data beyond what is necessary for these calculations.
