Reading the times isn’t the same as making the jamaʿah.

Al Noor: Prayer Times & Qibla calls the adhan at your exact location, turns you to the qibla, and shows the jamaʿah times of the masjids around you — the times those masjids set themselves, not a calculation. Free to download on Google Play.

No account needed to pray on time. Prayer times, the qibla and anything you’ve saved keep working with no signal. Set it up once and the next adhan finds you — at home, at work, or in a city you’ve never prayed in before.

Everything inside

  • Adhan alarm for every salah
  • 23 calculation methods
  • Qibla, with the distance to Makkah
  • Nearby masjids on a live map
  • Jamaʿah times set by the masjid
  • Masjid events and programs
  • All 114 surahs, word by word
  • Translations in 16 languages
  • 65 reciters, downloadable
  • Ten hadith collections, each referenced
  • Hundreds of duas and daily adhkar
  • Qaza tracker with a monthly calendar

The times you just read were added by someone like you.

Every jamaʿah time in the app was put there by a worshipper — none of it is calculated. That is the only reason a traveller can walk into a masjid in a city they’ve never visited and still know when the iqamah stands.

Your masjid takes about a minute. Add its jamaʿah times in the app, or simply photograph the printed timetable on the wall and let the app read every prayer off it. If you help run the masjid, you can claim it and keep its schedule, facilities and events current yourself.

Then it keeps working without you. Someone you will never meet catches a jamaʿah they would have missed; a traveller prays in congregation instead of alone. InshaAllah those prayers are written for you too — a sadaqah jariyah that carries on long after you’ve closed the app.

“Whoever guides someone to good will have a reward like the one who does it.” — Sahih Muslim 1893

Masjids are added from inside the app — there’s no form on this website.

Free to download. Android now, iOS in development.
