## What is Sirr?

Sirr is a contemplative companion for the inner life — a sacred space for the soul's quiet conversation. Built on classical Islamic psychology (Ilm al-Nafs) and modern therapeutic insight, Sirr helps you slow down, notice what is true, and meet your day with presence.

REFLECT — BEGIN A JOURNAL ENTRY
Open the journal and write what you are carrying. Sirr meets you with a warm, grounded reflection rooted in the wisdom of Imam al-Ghazali, Ibn Sina, and a fourteen-century tradition of caring for the soul. There is no rush, no scoring, no streak shame. Just the space to be honest.

SOUL MIRROR — THE 99 NAMES AS COMPANIONS
Each reflection draws on one of the Beautiful Names of Allah — Ar-Ra'uf, the Most Compassionate; Al-Shakur, the Appreciative; As-Sabur, the Patient — offered not as a lecture but as a quiet anchor for whatever you are moving through today. Embody one Name. Hold one prompt. Carry it into the world.

INSIGHTS — KNOW YOURSELF
Over time, Sirr gently surfaces the emotional and spiritual themes that recur in your writing — gratitude, tension, longing, return. A monthly view of your reflections, the Names that have walked with you, and the patterns worth noticing.

FIND YOUR THERAPIST
Browse qualified counsellors from Ibn Sina Sanctuary, where Islamic psychology and Western clinical practice are integrated. Filter by specialism, gender, language, and price. Book a call when you're ready.

PRAYER-AWARE REMINDERS
Optional, location-aware nudges that respect your day — gentle invitations to journal at fajr or after maghrib, never noisy, never moralising.

WHY SIRR
Generic journaling apps are built on assumptions about human nature drawn from secular Western psychology. They miss the vertical dimension — the relationship between the self that journals and the One who created it. Sirr is the contemplative companion we wished existed: warm, literate, unhurried, and quietly serious about the soul.

SIRR PRO
Unlock unlimited Soul Mirror reflections, the full Names library, deeper insights, the self-help library, and priority support with Sirr Pro. Available as a monthly or annual subscription. You can try Sirr free and upgrade whenever you're ready.

ABOUT IBN SINA SANCTUARY

### 5/5 — Great link of feelings to Islam

*2026-08-03*

I find it beneficial that my problems / feelings can be linked to Islamic lessons. I particularly benefit from the feature that links to a name of Allah 

Also the idea of journaling through an app connected to an ecosystem of mental health support.

### 5/5 — Aisha

*2026-08-03*

I’ve only just started using Sirr, but it’s already made a really positive impression. My therapist recommended it, and from my very first journal entry I found it incredibly insightful.

One of my favourite features is the mirror reflection breakdown. Sometimes I struggle to make sense of my thoughts when journaling, but the way Sirr reflects everything back in a clear, structured way helps me understand myself much better. I also really appreciate how it connects reflections to the names of Allah. That has helped me stay more intentional with my prayers and given me a stronger sense of focus and direction spiritually.

Overall, I think it’s a thoughtful and genuinely helpful app that combines emotional reflection with faith in a meaningful way. I’m excited to keep using it and see how it develops.

### 5/5 — Productive journaling!!

*2026-08-02*

Sirr gave me a space to speak freely without worrying about what anyone would say and then helped me remember Allah in processing those feelings! 
Journaling can be one of the easiest and most effective ways of processing emotions and decompressing in a totally safe space, after all, it’s just you and you. However, one of the great challenges with journaling is not having any type of feedback to process those emotions before going to therapy. Then on top of that, finding someone that can give you feedback that is perfectly focused on reconnecting you with Allah in a healthy way is priceless!!

### 3/5 — good but not pragmatic

*2026-07-30*

it provides a sense of relief knowing how I’ll be held accountable given tricky life circumstances - i.e. knowing Allah is my sustainer and from that Allah knows my limits. 

but it’s not pragmatic in the sense of actions I can do — and honestly it’s less about it telling me and more about it feeding me appropriate context from Islam so I can derive my own lessons and figure my own path. unless advice is applicable for all audiences. what i mean is i’d like to see specific hadith.
