About

Ajr

Features
Read full description

Ajr helps Muslims stay consistent in their daily acts of worship. Many people begin strong with their ibadah but struggle to stay consistent over time. Ajr solves this by helping you track your daily good deeds and stay mindful throughout your day. When you record your dhikr, Quran reading, charity, or other good deeds, you build awareness and feel more connected to Allah in your daily life. Ajr also helps you grow your ibadah gradually, similar to progressive overload in the gym. If you read 5 pages of Quran yesterday, you can aim for 6 today. Small improvements every day lead to lasting consistency. Features: • Track dhikr, Quran reading, charity, and good deeds • Stay consistent with your daily ibadah • Analytics and history to track your progress • Motivation to improve gradually over time • Simple and minimal interface designed for focus Ajr is built to help you stay mindful, motivated, and connected to Allah through small but consistent acts of worship. Consistency in small deeds leads to great reward.
