(MENAFN- KREAB) Singapore, 2 March 2021 – Muslim Pro app users now have two new features to help them prepare for Ramadan. The two features are Dhikr tracking and the Quran translations audio.
Muslim Pro users can now set daily Dhikr goals and track them in the existing Tasbih feature in the app. Dhikr is a very direct and powerful way of strengthening a Muslim’s relationship with Allah. This new feature is in response to a popular request by the community. With accompanying audio recordings, users can also listen to how the Dhikr is being recited and follow the recitation as they read towards their Dhikr goals.
Muslim Pro is motivated to use technology to continually innovate and improve the Muslim Pro app, to better serve the Ummah .To increase accessibility of the app for users in various markets, Muslim Pro has integrated the text-to-speech technology in its Quran feature. Users can now listen to the Quran translations audio in various languages. The Quran translations audio will be played right after the Arabic recitation of each verse. Currently, the Muslim Pro app has around 70 translations, with some languages having multiple translation versions. The text-to-speech technology is an added capability to these Quran translations and users can look for the words “audio recitation is available” below a particular translation to find out which translation has the new audio recitation feature.
Said Ms Zahariah Jupary, Muslim Pro’s Head of Community: “Muslim Pro is about the Ummah, and the uplifting of individuals to strengthen the community. This is the passion that motivates us to improve the Muslim Pro app continuously. We want the new features to further ease and facilitate the practice of our community’s faith and religious duties, as the Quran translations’ audio will allow individuals to hear the Quran translations in any of the available languages in the app, while the Dhikr tracking will encourage the Ummah to increase their remembrance of Allah no matter where they are.”
Ms Zahariah added that the two new features are part of Muslim Pro’s pledge to always put users first “in everything that we do”. “We will always listen to our community and improve the app to support the Ummah in their practice.”
She also noted that many people turned to Muslim Pro amid the Covid-19 restrictions. “We saw a big spike in app usage during the Covid-19 pandemic period, so we knew it was helping people keep their faith.”
The latest innovations complement the app’s existing comprehensive list of features that Muslim Pro has introduced over the years to support the Ummah in their practice of Islam.
Currently, the app, which is available on the Apple App Store (iOS), Google Play Store (Android) and KaiOS, has features that include: accurate prayer times, azan , full audio Quran, Halal restaurants & Mosques guide, Qibla compass, Islamic Hijri calendar, Zakat calculation, Daily Inspiration contents, Fasting and prayer tracker, virtual Hajj journey, Popular Verses and daily Duas .
“Every day, we focus on creating a better mobile app, one that is relevant and useful to the Ummah. The virtual Hajj journey feature which was launched last year during the Hajj season is useful for Muslims who cannot go on the pilgrimage to Mecca; it is particularly relevant in these COVID-19 times,” Ms Zahariah pointed out.
She said that as part of Muslim Pro’s annual World Quran Month (WQM) in Ramadan, Muslim Pro is also planning a Global Quran Reading event to unite the Ummah in encouraging one another to read the Quran. WQM aims to encourage the Ummah to reconnect and return to the Quran at their own pace during Ramadan, the best month to do so. This event will be done using the app as well and more details will be available in March.
