Al Ahd: 40 Mornings

Mohamad Dbouk

About this app

Al Ahd is your daily companion for renewing the pledge of allegiance. Recite the noble Dua al-Ahd for 40 consecutive mornings, to be counted among the helpers of the Awaited Qa'im, may Allah hasten his relief.

It is narrated from Imam al-Sadiq (peace be upon him): whoever supplicates to Allah for forty mornings with this covenant shall be counted among the helpers of our Qa'im; (Bihar al-Anwar, vol. 53).

Open the app at dawn. It shows the prayer times where you are, and whether you are in the morning window. Recite along with a full audio recitation, with each line lit as it is read. Tap once to mark the day. Your run of 40 mornings moves forward, and a calendar charts every morning you keep.

WHAT YOU GET
- The full text of Dua al-Ahd in clear Arabic, with a complete recitation.
- Four more duas, each with its own recitation: Dua al-Sabah every morning, Dua Kumayl on Thursday night, Dua al-Nudba on Friday morning, and Dua al-Tawassul on Tuesday night.
- Line-by-line highlighting that follows the audio. Tap any line to jump there.
- Transliteration for every line, so you can recite in Latin script.
- Several reciters for some of the duas. Choose the one you recite with.
- An English translation you can show or hide, and text size you control.
- Prayer times for wherever you are. The morning window opens at Fajr and runs to an hour before Dhuhr, and any recitation in that time counts toward your 40.
- A lifetime record that never resets. Only the run of 40 in a row is strict, the way the tradition asks.
- A gentle morning reminder, scheduled on your device.
- Full Arabic and English, with proper right-to-left layout.

WORKS OFFLINE
The dua and the full audio are built in, and your prayer times are calculated right on your device. You can start the practice on the first launch, with no account and no signal.

PURE AND PRIVATE
This service is offered pure and sincere: no ads, no analytics, no trackers, and no commercial or political agenda. You can use the whole app without ever giving an email. An email is asked for only if you want to keep your progress when you change phones.

Al Ahd is free. Made with care for those who keep the morning.

What’s new

Widgets for your home screen: your forty, the morning window, and the next prayer at a glance.
