Noor Deen – Islamic Companion

What is Noor Deen?

Noor Deen is a free Android application developed by Code Cooker that brings together several Islamic utilities in a single, easy‑to‑navigate interface. It is designed for Muslims who want quick access to core religious content such as prayer times, Quran text, hadith collections, and daily remembrance tools.

Main features

• Prayer times & Qibla: Calculates daily prayer times based on the device’s location and includes a simple Qibla compass.
• Quran with audio: Browse the entire Quran in Arabic with an English translation. Audio playback of each verse is available, and verses can be bookmarked for later reference.
• Hadith library: Access major hadith collections with a built‑in search function.
• Daily dhikr: Pre‑set dhikr counters with progress tracking and optional haptic feedback.
• Dua collection: A selection of authentic supplications for common occasions, each presented with Arabic text, transliteration, translation, and source reference.
• Zakat calculator: Simple input fields to estimate zakat obligations based on current nisab thresholds.
• Islamic calendar: Hijri dates and important Islamic events are displayed alongside the Gregorian calendar.

How it works

When the app is opened, it first determines the user’s location (if permission is granted) to provide accurate prayer times. The main menu presents icons for each module – Prayer, Quran, Hadith, Dhikr, Dua, Zakat, Calendar – allowing users to jump directly to the function they need. Audio playback in the Quran module streams recordings stored within the app, so no additional data connection is required after installation.

Practical uses

• Set up prayer notifications to remind you of upcoming Salah.
• Read or listen to the Quran during commutes or breaks.
• Look up a specific hadith quickly using the search bar.
• Track daily dhikr counts and stay consistent with remembrance practices.
• Calculate zakat obligations before the annual deadline.

Installation information

The app is distributed as a free download from the Appitika store. Installation follows the standard Android process: tap “Install,” accept any required permissions, and the app will appear on the home screen. No additional configuration is needed to start using the basic features.

Things to know before installing

• The app may request location access to provide precise prayer times and Qibla direction. This permission can be denied, but prayer times will then be based on a manually selected city.
• Audio files for Quran recitation are bundled with the app, which may increase the initial download size.
• All content is provided for personal use; the app does not claim official endorsement by any religious authority.

Who may find it useful?

Muslims looking for a single, offline‑capable tool that covers the most frequently used aspects of daily worship will benefit from Noor Deen. It is especially handy for travelers who need prayer times and Qibla direction without internet access.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an internet connection to use the Quran audio?

No. The recitation files are stored locally after installation, so playback works offline.

Can I customize the prayer notification sound?

The app uses the device’s default notification sound. Changing it requires adjusting the system settings, not the app itself.

Is my personal data shared with third parties?

No personal data is transmitted beyond what is necessary for location‑based services. The app does not contain advertising or analytics modules.
