The story behind Prayer flow and our mission to help Muslims organize their lives with purpose.

Our Mission

Our Story

IM

Ismail Ahmed

Founder & CEO

The journey of Prayer flow began with a simple observation: while there were many Islamic apps for prayer times and Quran, and many productivity apps for task management, there was nothing that truly integrated both worlds effectively.

As a software developer and practicing Muslim, I was juggling multiple apps - one for prayer times, another for tasks, and yet another for spiritual reminders. The constant switching created friction, and I noticed that my most productive days were those when I naturally organized my work around prayer times.

But there was another problem troubling me. In 2020, I read about how a popular Islamic app was selling user location data to third parties, even military contractors. This deeply concerned me - Muslims using an app for spiritual purposes were having their privacy violated in ways they never consented to.

That's when I decided to build something different: a productivity app specifically designed for Muslims that would:

  • Integrate task management around prayer time blocks
  • Add the dimension of spiritual intention (Niyyah) to tasks
  • Respect user privacy completely - keeping all data on-device
  • Be transparent, ethical, and true to Islamic values

We started small, with a simple MVP focused on these core principles. As more Muslims discovered and used the app, we've carefully added features based on user feedback while never compromising our core values of privacy and simplicity.

Today, Prayer flow is helping thousands of Muslims worldwide structure their day around prayer times, bringing barakah to both their spiritual practice and worldly productivity. We're committed to continuing this journey, building ethical technology that serves the Muslim ummah without compromise.

Our Values

Privacy First

We believe your data belongs to you. Our app performs all calculations on-device, stores all your data locally, and never tracks your activity or location.

Faith Integration

We design products that seamlessly integrate Islamic practices with modern productivity techniques, creating harmony rather than conflict between faith and work.

Simplicity

We believe in elegant, minimalist design that removes friction rather than adding complexity. Our focus is on helping you do more with less, bringing clarity to your day.
