I've found this great app, and I wanna share it with y'all. It's called:

Salam App: Muslim Companion.

The app is developed by a team based in Canada. They do this work as a form of charity for the greater good of the Umma, entirely for free. I for one think this is highly commendable and I pray that inshallah the developers will recieve many blessings for their deed.

Beside that: the app does A LOT! And it looks nice as well.

For starters, there are all the basics like qibla finder, prayer times corresponding to your location and reminder notifications. Adding to that, there's entire Holy Quran with three commentaries, all major hadith collections, a lot of dua, dhikr and other materials.

Sure, but a lot of other apps has these as well I hear you say. True. What set's "Salam App: Muslim companion" apart is it's high level of technical and scholarly qualities together with high customisability.

For example, Holy Quran can by displayed and read in multiple arabic fonts, with or without transcription and/or translation, with or without a commentary. Any hadith can be easily accesed from the same app, prayer related things are madhab-adjustible, and all this and more offline, ready in your phone. Oh, and did I mention audio Quran? Because they have audio version now as well.

Controls are intuitive, visuals are beautiful and adjustible as well, and there's active development and technical support.

I think that anyone, muslim or a non-muslim interested in (and inshallah on their way to conversion to) Islam can highly benefit from this app. Even if you don't utilize the prayer features, it can serve you as a compact and a potent resource for your studies of Holy Quran and hadith.

Let's bring this amazing work to more people, and spread the word of Allah. It is dawah and a commendable deed. Please reblog this or share the app directly, so more people can benefit from it!

Alhamdulillah, Subhanallah.

Armand's prayer is not correctly facing the qibla. You can find the reference by searching the Qibla finder with 'The Palm Jumeirah' as location.

You can see in the distance the Ain Dubai (white ferris wheel) marked with a circle in the map. For him to be correctly facing the qibla he'd have to be with his back (in an acute angle) to Daniel, facing the right upper corner of the window.

The first time Kaaba was built by the angels

The second time was built by Adam (ع)

The third time it was built by Sheeth Ibn Adam who fell in the flood of Noah

The fourth time by Sayyiduna Ibrahim (ع)

The fifth time by the people of Amalekah

The sixth time by the tribe of Jarham

The seventh time by Qasa bin Kalab (grandfather of RasoolAllah ﷺ)

The eighth time by Quraysh

The ninth time by Abdullah bin Zubair

The tenth time by Hajjaj bin Yusuf.

And after that until today this region is being occupied by Muslims and many kings have actively participated in its construction, repair and expansion and this process is still ongoing.
