ONE COMPANION, THROUGHOUT YOUR DAY

Room to read, learn and remember.

Useful tools, thoughtful details,
and no features behind a paywall.

QUR'AN

Read with understanding.

All 114 sūrahs, Uthmani and IndoPak scripts, muṣḥaf pages, tajwid colouring, translations, tafsir and word-by-word study.

PRAYER

Keep prayer close.

Prayer times calculated on your device, a choice of calculation methods, reminders, and a Qibla compass.

HADITH

Learn from the Sunnah.

Classical collections including Bukhari and Muslim, with Arabic text, translations, source references and recorded gradings.

DUʿĀ & DHIKR

Words for every moment.

Hisn al-Muslim, daily remembrance, the 99 Names, and a tasbih counter to accompany your own practice.

RECITATION PRACTICE

Practise in private.

Speech recognition runs entirely on your device, without uploading your recording. It is an aid for reviewing your recitation. It can make mistakes and does not replace a qualified Qur'an teacher.

KHATMAH

Read at your own pace.

A reading plan with progress and gentle reminders to help you return to the Qur'an, one page at a time.

What works offline? Core Qur'an reading, bundled study resources and prayer-time calculations work offline. Recitation streaming and additional content downloads require an internet connection.

OUR INTENTION

A gift
for the Ummah.

بِسْمِ اللَّهِ الرَّحْمَٰنِ الرَّحِيمِ

Made for you. Offered freely.
Your duʿā is enough.

Deen Companion is offered freely to everyone, with no advertisements, subscriptions, locked features or conditions. Please receive it as something made for you: use it, share it, and benefit from it without obligation.

I offer this effort seeking the pleasure of Allah. I ask Him to accept its beneficial use as sadaqah jariyah for me, my wife, our children, our parents and family, everyone who has willingly helped bring this app to life, and the whole Muslim Ummah.

May Allah accept this effort, place barakah in it, forgive its shortcomings, and make every sincere benefit from it a continuing source of good. Āmīn.

With gratitude,
Sirajul Islam Esab Ali and family
