Barakah: Prayer Times & Qibla

Pixels512

About this app

Barakah is a private, Arabic-first daily companion for Muslim worship — accurate prayer times, the full adhan, the Qur'an with audio, a Qibla compass, adhkar and du'as, the Hijri calendar, Zakat and more, all computed on your device with no account and no tracking.

THE FULL ADHAN — EVEN WHEN THE APP IS CLOSED
• Hear the complete call to prayer, not a clipped alert that stops partway
• The adhan plays at prayer time even when Barakah is closed
• Choose a different sound for each prayer — the full adhan for Fajr and Maghrib, a gentle chime for Dhuhr, silent for Isha — and pick between two muezzin voices

REMINDERS YOU CAN RELY ON
• Optional reminders for Qiyam and Tahajjud (the last third of the night), suhoor/imsak and iftar during Ramadan, sunnah fasts (Monday and Thursday, the White Days, Ashura and Arafah), Islamic dates and events, and morning and evening adhkar
• Every reminder is optional and configurable

PRIVATE BY DESIGN
• Everything is computed on your device — no account, no tracking, nothing collected by us (the in-app Privacy Report lists every optional call, including the Qur'an/adhan audio and word-by-word data you choose to fetch)
• Core features work offline — prayer times, the Qibla, adhkar and the calendar need no connection
• Your location is used only to calculate prayer times and the Qibla, and it stays on your device — the one exception is nearby mosque search, which sends only your approximate area (rounded to about 1 km) when you tap to search

PRAYER TIMES (SALAH & NAMAZ) & TRACKING
• Accurate times for Fajr, Dhuhr, Asr, Maghrib, and Isha
• Multiple calculation methods (Umm al-Qura, Muslim World League, Egyptian, ISNA, Dubai, Qatar, Kuwait, and more)
• Shafiʿi and Hanafi options for Asr
• Next-prayer countdown and Qiyam (last third of the night)
• Track your daily prayers and build a streak

QUR'AN
• Read the full Qur'an in a clean, Arabic-first layout
• Listen to recitation with a choice of reciters, verse-by-verse highlighting, and a memorization (Hifz) loop
• Download recitations for offline listening, with lock-screen playback controls

QIBLA
• Precise Qibla direction to the Kaʿba from anywhere, with a live compass

ADHKAR (AZKAR) & DU'AS
• Morning and evening adhkar, and a collection of authentic du'as
• A digital tasbih (prayer-bead) counter

HIJRI CALENDAR (ISLAMIC CALENDAR) & 99 NAMES
• Today's Hijri date (Umm al-Qura) and Hijri⇄Gregorian conversion
• The 99 Names of Allah

ZAKAT & INHERITANCE (educational estimate)
• Calculate Zakat on cash, gold, silver, business assets, receivables, and investments, with a gold or silver nisab basis
• Understand Qurʾānic inheritance shares for common family cases — always confirm the final split with a qualified scholar
