With MyDeen, you’ll be able to understand and deeply connect with Islam like the Sahaba inshallah. It is the only app out there that answers the most relevant issues Muslims are facing today in a fast, engaging manner. What You’ll Get in MyDeen • Why Islam Is True - To increase faith and provide reassurance • Important teachings from the Prophets (peace be upon them), Sahaba and other great Muslims • Modern Muslim Issues – Clear guidance on today’s challenges • Misconceptions about Islam – Addressed with wisdom and clarity • Summarized Lessons from different parts of the Quran • Understanding Differences – Learn how the Sahaba tolerated small Islamic differences (Ijtihad) • Principles of Islamic Rulings – Course on the importance of scholars and how Islamic law works Many Muslims today feel disconnected from their deen — reciting Quran without understanding, being taught rituals like a passed-down culture, and being completely surrounded by temptations of the dunya. This has led to obsession with this temporary world and little focus on the life after death. MyDeen revives the love of Islamic learning by following the methodology of the legendary scholar Imam al-Ghazali, who wrote the most popular Islamic book of his time, Ihya Ulum al-Din. He wrote this book because he saw that Muslims were not connected to the religion like the Sahaba, and so he taught Islamic topics that Muslims needed to hear in a beautiful way. This allowed him to transform people’s hearts with God’s help. We are also applying proven ideas from popular education apps, like gamification, to keep learning engaging. Everything on MyDeen is designed so that Muslims can benefit greatly from it even if they spend only 5 minutes every 2 or 3 days learning from it. https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Harf Learning at none against MyDeen's shown. MyDeen's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and ratings volume (142 vs 4). On price, rating, review sentiment and update cadence there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. MyDeen sells 1 in-app purchase, starting at $6.99 per month and Harf Learning sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $11.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for MyDeen against 5.0 for Harf Learning. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: MyDeen has 142 ratings behind it against 4, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 100% and 100% positive.
Both ship on a similar rhythm, roughly every 9 days. The most recent releases landed on November 5, 2026 and November 6, 2026 respectively.
