Jibreel is the easiest way to learn the essential knowledge every Muslim needs - in just 5 minutes a day. Designed like Duolingo but built for faith, Jibreel turns learning obligatory (fard ‘ayn) knowledge into a simple, step-by-step journey. - How do you pray when you travel? - Can you wipe your socks in wudu? - What are the rules around prayer, menstruation & ghusl? - What are the names of Allah?  - What are the rights of your neighbours?  - What exactly are the rights of your parents? 99.9% of Muslims don't know the answers to these questions, let alone fulfil them.  Yet, we will be questioned about every single one on the day of judgement!  - Problem: most Muslims were never taught their fard ‘ayn systematically. - Solution: Jibreel fixes this by guiding you through the essentials in a way that is clear, trustworthy, and easy to follow. -------------------- Based on the famous Hadith Jibreel - the Foundations of Islam - Islam (Actions) - prayer, purification, fasting, zakat, and hajj. - Iman (Belief) - the pillars of faith, from angels to destiny. - Ihsan (Spirituality) - sincerity, excellence, and purifying the heart. -------------------- Why Jibreel? - Bite-sized daily lessons - 5 minutes a day to stay consistent. - Checkpoints & quizzes that build confidence as you learn. - Built for every Muslim - from lifelong Muslims to those refreshing their basics. - Clean, distraction-free design focused on knowledge, not noise. -------------------- Trusted by millions: Jibreel is brought to you by the creators of Pillars, the Muslim prayer app with 1.7M+ users worldwide. Just like Pillars, Jibreel is authentic, beautifully designed, and built to serve the needs of Muslims today. No ads. No distractions. Just you, your deen, and daily progress. It's time to level up and become a better, holistic Muslim! -------------------- Access to Jibreel content and lessons requires a paid subscription. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

prayer clock° is a visual prayer companion that shows your day as a clock instead of a list, so you always know where you are and what's next. prayer clock° is built around a clock face that lays out all five daily prayers as color-coded segments, along with forbidden prayer times so you know exactly when to pray and when to pause. Add optional prayers like Tahajjud, Duha, and Ishraq to see them alongside your daily prayers. Tap any prayer for its full time window, rakat breakdown, and a short description. Find the direction of the Kaaba with the built-in Qibla compass. Mark prayers complete at your own pace, with no streaks or progress pressure built in. A home screen widget keeps your current prayer and countdown visible without opening the app. Features: Visual Prayer Clock - See all five daily prayers laid out on a 24-hour circle, so the whole day is visible at a glance instead of a scrolling list. Optional Prayers - Turn on Tahajjud, Duha, and Ishraq to track them right alongside the five obligatory prayers. Prayer Details - Tap any prayer for its time window, rakat breakdown (Sunnat, Farz, Nafl, Witr), and a short description. Qibla Compass - Find the direction of the Kaaba from wherever you are.
