Great for introspection and self discovery

"The Zikr option on this app helps me end my stressful day with providing an ideal thought needed to speculate on my self and reset my energies. Would definitely recommend it."

The only Islamic Journalling app worth using

"I tried a few journalling apps. You know, but nothing that really help me connect with my own religion emotionally this one gets it you right what's on your mind? Also, add in your emotion and it comes back with an eye. That's specific to what you wrote or just a random emotional motivational words, it's a very simple and personal and tomorrow and a daily thicker and I've been using it every day"
