He further said, “While the impact of an app like Athan cannot be felt in full
force in the Muslim-majority countries where calls for prayers are made five
times a day and the general culture of the place makes it easier to adjust
routines during times such as Ramadan, it is the non-Muslim majority countries
where the inclusive aspect of the app is felt in full force. Many of our users
living in the West find Athan useful as it makes it easier for them to follow
their religion.”
Adapting to modern advancements in technology and innovation, Athan brings an
all-immersive experience for Muslims across the globe. It supports in bridging
religion with technology for convenience.
