Prayer Times: Quran Athan Qibla – Free Islamic Companion

What is Prayer Times: Quran Athan Qibla?

Prayer Times: Quran Athan Qibla is a free Android application developed by Foxen Tech Solution. It is designed to help Muslims keep track of daily prayer schedules, listen to the call to prayer, read the Holy Quran and locate the Qibla direction wherever they are.

Main features

• Prayer time calculations – The app determines the five daily prayer times based on the user’s current location using standard calculation methods.
• Azan notifications – Users can enable audible alerts for each prayer, choosing from a selection of recorded calls.
• Quran reader – The full text of the Quran is available with Arabic script, transliteration and translation options. Audio recitations can be played chapter by chapter.
• Qibla compass – A built‑in compass points directly toward the Kaaba, helping users orient themselves for prayer.
• Daily Duas and Azkar – A collection of authentic supplications is included for morning, evening and special occasions.

How it works

After installing the app, it requests permission to access the device’s location. This information is used solely to calculate accurate prayer times for the user’s city or coordinates. The main screen displays the current time, the next prayer, and the remaining minutes until that prayer. Tapping any item opens a dedicated view: the Quran screen offers navigation by Surah or Juz, the Qibla screen shows a compass overlay, and the Azan settings let users customize alert tones and volumes.

Practical uses

• Quickly check today’s prayer schedule while traveling.
• Set gentle Azan reminders to stay consistent with Salah.
• Read or listen to the Quran during commutes or quiet moments.
• Use the Qibla finder in unfamiliar locations, such as airports or hotels.
• Refer to daily Duas for personal supplication without needing a separate book.

Installation information

The application is available for free on the Google Play Store. Users need Android devices with standard location services enabled. Installation follows the usual Play Store process: tap “Install,” wait for the download, and open the app to complete the initial setup.

Things to know before installing

• The app requires location access to compute prayer times; it does not collect personal data beyond what is needed for this purpose.
• Audio files for the Quran and Azan are bundled with the app, so an internet connection is not required after installation.
• Because the app is free, it may display non‑intrusive ads, but these do not interfere with core functionality.

Who may find it useful?

Any Muslim who wants a single, offline‑ready tool for daily worship can benefit from this app. It is especially handy for travelers, students, and anyone who prefers a lightweight solution without multiple separate applications.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an internet connection to use the app?

After the initial download, all features—including prayer times, Quran text, audio recitations and Qibla compass—work offline. An internet connection is only needed for the first installation.

Can I change the calculation method for prayer times?

Yes, the settings include a list of common calculation methods (e.g., Muslim World League, Umm al‑Qura). Users can select the one that matches their local practice.

Is the Quran translation available in languages other than Arabic?

The app provides Arabic text with optional transliteration. Translation options depend on the bundled language packs; users can switch among the available languages in the Quran view.

How accurate is the Qibla direction?

The compass uses the device’s built‑in magnetometer and GPS coordinates to point toward the Kaaba. Accuracy is comparable to other standard Qibla finder tools, provided the device’s sensors are calibrated.
