Salaamun Alaikum!

First off, my sincerest gratitude @DBChoco and team for creating a wonderfully intuitive program that is lightweight. InshaAllah Ta'Aala may Allah SWT reward you for your efforts in the thousands ameen.

Please let me know if my requests are not feasible. I've yet to find a program as good as this one MashaAllah so these are not gripes, but more so suggestions to further improve usability.

Primarily, a feature to play an opening dua/surah of the users choice before or after the Adhan would be a valuable addition, in my humble opinion. This option would perhaps mirror the custom adjustment tab, as well as the adhan tab in certain ways. I've taken the liberty to mock up what i believe this page would look like, but my background in UI rather than code keeps me from implementing it unfortunately XD. please let me know if this is something that you or your team could implement, as hearing the Holy Quran or maybe a select dua would be a welcome addition to most users. SURAHorDUA

Secondly, the Shi'a Madhab from what i understand only recite the Adhan for Fajr, Dhuhr, and Maghrib - as the Asr and Isha prayers are prayed directly after the Dhuhr and Maghrib prayers respectively. A couple Shi'a friends i know stated that whilst there is no problem with the additional beautiful recitation of the Adhan, they have already prayed the Asr and Isha prayers and so the Adhan calls them to pray what has already been offered, Subhan'Allah. Additionally, im sure the option to mute a certain adhan may help students or others who may not have access to a room all the time (My university had a multi faith room which was only accessible at certain times, some of which did not correspond with the time of the Salaat), but the out loud recitation of the Adhan during these times would perhaps disturb others (non Muslims) using the room at certain times. I understand this is a niche use case, but i believe it is one that adds additional versatility to the app, which is never a bad thing. I have also mocked up what i believe those updates would look like, as seen below. Mute

These mockups were done rather quickly, so if you'd like additional work to be done, please do let me know. Additionally, if you would like an additional hand with regards to UX/UI, i'd be more than happy to assist.

Again, Jazak'Allah Khairan for putting this together. May Allah SWT increase you ameen ya Rabb. If you have any questions please reach out.

Salaamun Alaikum

Wa Alaykoum Assalam wa Rahmatou Lahi wa Baraketu brother ! Thank you for the suggestions, let me tell you what I think about them:

  1. I don't know of any Sunnah of the Prophet PBUH that indicated that they'd listen to Qur'an or anything before the Adhan; and I wouldn't like to innovate something which our beloved Prophet PBUH didn't come with. Thus I'm against this.
  2. This is a very nice feature, the mute button. Strangely enough it didn't cross my mind until now; Jazaka Lahu Khairan ! This has nothing to do with the Shi'a, with all due respect; it is just a nice feature to have in all cases.

I'll keep it in mind inshaAllah; I've been extremely busy for the past year or so, so the software didn't improve much in that time frame; I'll do my best inshaAllah.

Baraka Lahu feek for all the help ! Wa Alaykoum Assalam wa Rahmatou Lahi wa Baraketu brother !
