कभी दसहरी से ऐसा इश्क़ था कि गंगा पार का चौसा भी ना भाता था... फिर आंध्र के बंगनपल्ली, बैंगलुरु की मल्लिका और हाल में मेक्सिको के अतौलफ़ो ने जॉन लेनॉन से ज़्यादा ग्लोब्लिज़म सिखा दिया!

@CricCrazyJohns Did they size them for Rohit Sharma?

Absolutely adore this 'Second Best' idea for parents from IKEA

@irenaakbar Use Tarteel for AI enabled error highlights. But Tarteel does not has the feature where you could record your own recitation and review it with the in-app mushaf.

If you are not big on AI, I recommend ‘With The Quran’. Let’s you record and review the Mushaf, while you listen

In the same week we had @ThePillarsApp widget, #bisma Chrome extension and then I found this: https://t.co/SRrxxVjSIL

Muslim tech products were around for sometime - but now that they have adopted contemporary UX - they are a pleasure to use!

May their tribe grow! 🤲🏼

@asabbas98 Why not design the QR code in form of an arrow. Gives the on-looker the direction in-situ. The scanned app becomes a validation.

[Abu Rivayah @aapka_anas]

@asabbas98 @ThePillarsApp Stop thinking of yourself as a prayer timetable. Look at your utility as a day-planner around salah.
“Day Planner” is the best visual as per me. Now its your strategy if you want to take on iCal/ Outlook Cal/ Google Calendars of the world or integrate.

I made this website for learning Persian ages ago (before becoming a linguist). It's quite old-fashioned and Google ranks it pretty low. But I think it's still useful and I'd like you to know that it exists if you're teaching yourself Persian :)

The commentator has hit it out of the park! Take a bow #sidmonga 🙏🏽

Without incriminating anyone or virtue-signalling, we can use a recent incident to educate and sensitise ourselves on caste privilege and oppression, writes Sidharth Monga 👇

@asabbas98 @theMuslimDev @ThePillarsApp Exactly! We are used to clock dials/ time table visuals for prayer times…they worked well for masajid! For an individual to plan a day around salah- I don’t think so!

I would vote for a calendar like day planner sort of a visual. But then, test it out!

[Abu Rivayah @aapka_anas]

@asabbas98 @theMuslimDev @ThePillarsApp Persona B, needs pointers to plan their day around salah. They just need these bands around which they could figure out , say, if they want to start from a place at a particular time or wait 10 minutes, pray Asr and leave…

[Abu Rivayah @aapka_anas]

@asabbas98 @theMuslimDev @ThePillarsApp Also note, there are two different personas and two different needs. Persona A, committed to iqama at a mosque would need point in time (and place) notifications… perhaps the local mosque App/ WhatsApp grp could help them.

[Abu Rivayah @aapka_anas]

@asabbas98 @theMuslimDev @ThePillarsApp Empathize with the most lay person: how could your app help them plan their meetings, outings, even transits while keeping salah in the centre.

[Abu Rivayah @aapka_anas]

@asabbas98 @theMuslimDev @ThePillarsApp Barakallahufeek
I think it serves at the moment. But do consider prayer bands in your future releases/ product plans.
Your essential users, I assume, use the app to plan their day while being conscious of prayers.

[Abu Rivayah @aapka_anas]

@asabbas98 @theMuslimDev @ThePillarsApp May Allah bestow barakah in your efforts and may the ummah continue to gain from your products!

[Abu Rivayah @aapka_anas]

@asabbas98 @theMuslimDev @ThePillarsApp Of course! You need SMEs from Fiqh and Nautical sciences to work this out but this is something which is not out there!

Prayer time is your ball game..gain excellence - ehsan - in that, instead of diversifying in AI, Quran or marketplace offerings at the moment.
