FREE Pocket Arabic Alphabet for Android Smartphone and Tab available on Google Play Store

Welcome to “Pocket Arabic Alphabet”, a Janat Al-Firdous Software Enterprise
Product.

“Pocket Arabic Alphabet” is a simple application that anyone can use to learn the Arabic alphabet.

On the learning screen the tiles that contain the Arabic letters are nice and big; roughly six tiles fit on a screen at once. This makes the app good for kids and the elderly who may find it difficult to use their fingers accurately, because, kids are inexperienced and the elderly may be impaired in old age.

Some similar apps display all the Arabic letters on a single screen, displaying them all at once. Due to problems of kids and the elderly we did not do this as the tiles would be too small for fingers and impaired eye-sight.

As an added benefit the tiles on our app scroll; which adds interest and novelty to the app.

In “Pocket Arabic Alphabet” the end-user has full control over access to the letters which some other apps lack.

Having the Arabic letter tiles scroll gives kids an opportunity to use an additional skill in using ICT, in this case a Smartphone or Tab. It makes kids search for the letters they want to improve on in learning. In adding more physical activity to the exercise the Arabic letters are more likely to stick in the mind of a child or adult helping them to retain the Arabic letters in memory to aid learning.

FREE Qibla Direction Viewer for Android Smartphone and Tab available on Google Play Store


Welcome to “Qibla Direction Viewer” an application for Android Smartphone by Janat Al-Firdous Software Enterprise.

“Qibla Direction Viewer” is an easy-to-use compass that shows a Muslim the correct direction to pray.

Muslims pray in the direction of the Kabah in Mecca, also known as the direction of the qibla. The Kabah is the holy house in Mecca that resides in the Mosque of Al-Masjid Al-Haram.

In the Qur’an in Surah Al-Baqarah, verse 150 it says:

“And for who-so-ever place you come forth, turn your face towards the sacred mosque; and wherever you are turn your faces towards it, so that people will have no accusation against you, except such of them as are unjust; so do not fear them, and fear Me, that I might complete my favour on you and that you may walk on the right course.”

“Qibla Direction Viewer” stands out from the rest of Qibla Compasses available on Google Play Store because it is very accurate in giving the correct direction to the Kabah, where other similar apps may fail.

“Qibla Direction Viewer” is very easy to use. All you need to do is have the top of your Tab or Smartphone face directly away from you and align either the Blue arrow or Red needle with zero degrees on the compass face, and you will be facing the Kabah and easily able to adjust your prayer mat ready to pray in the correct direction.

Also, the current bearing and qibla direction are displayed in degrees, in text format, also, as an aid to get the best results when aligning your prayer mat ready to pray. All you need to do is make both numbers as similar as possible.

Not many similar apps give you two methods to help you align your pray mat. Other apps may fail to be as easy to use as ours.
