A scripture-first mindful pause from AzharLabs
A verse before the scroll. Peace before the app.
Sakinah is a scripture-first app blocker. When you open an app you chose to pause, a verse of the Qur'an appears first. Read it, then continue. 100% offline, no account, no tracking.

A mindful pause
Read first. Then continue.
Choose the apps you want to slow down and give each one a scripture before it opens.
Read the verse
A Qur'an verse appears first, quietly.
Continue
Once you have read it, the app opens as usual.
Nothing leaves your phone.
Private by design
Completely offline.
Sakinah makes no network requests at runtime. There is no account, no server, and no analytics — you can verify this in aeroplane mode. It reads only the name of the app in front; it never reads your screen, messages, or typing.
The full scripture and prayer-time mathematics are bundled on-device.
Free and private
A pause that respects you.
No account, no ads, no tracking — just the scripture and the pause you choose.
