Huawei announced the launch of Muslim Daily app, its Ramadan application designed especially for fasting users with programs and features that help them perform their daily rituals on time including prayers (Al Salat), reciting the Holy Quran, identifying the Qiblah direction and finding the nearest mosques to the user\u2019s location.<\/p>\n
The free Android application offers a series of Ramadan programs on one single screen especially designed for Ramadan, including reciting Quran in text form, listening to 15 of the most famous Quran reciters (including Abdul Rahman Al Sodais, Abdul Basset Abdul Samad and Mashari Al Afasi), and the ability to change reciters at any time and complete the same verses (Ayat) without repeating the chapter (Surah) from the beginning, in addition to listening to the recitation even if the phone is off and adding a verse to the list of favorite verses to retrieve it quickly anytime later.<\/p>\n
The application also offers a program to locate the direction of the Qiblah directly through GPS navigation feature in the smartphone. The application also displays prayer times for many cities around the world and alerts the user when it\u2019s prayer time even if the phone is switched off, with a chronological countdown to the next prayer time. And according to the user\u2019s current geographical location, the application can search for the nearest mosques and display them by name, address and distance.<\/p>\n
When the user clicks on the name of a mosque from the list, the application will display Google map to show the user how to reach that mosque either on foot or by car. The application also displays the Hijri and Gregorian calendar on the same page, with the start and end dates of each calendar month. It also displays various religious events and occasions, such as Israa and Miraj, Prophet\u2019s birthday, the beginning of Ramadan, Arafah, Eid al-Fitr, Eid al-Adha and the Hijri New Year among others.<\/p>\n
Commenting on the new application, Gene Jiao, president of Huawei Consumer Business Group in the Middle East and Africa region said: “Huawei stays committed to making people’s lives better through its innovative products and software. And in the holy month of Ramadan, we do our best to offer valuable addition to the users\u2019 experience in line with the spirituality of the blessed month to satisfy the needs of all our customers in the Islamic world, and we would like to take this opportunity to wish them a Happy and blessed Ramadan.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
