About Dhikr

Dhikr, is a next-generation mobile application to aid your journey to Discover Inner Peace. The mobile application provides a range of Dhikr functions, primarily:

Dhikr
Dhikr or Adhkar (remembrance of Allah SWT)

Quran Recitation
Quran

Salah Tracker
Salah

The aim is to build consistency in our daily routines - whether after performing Salah, early morning and evening dhikr or can even be personalized based around your daily routine. Our mobile application is inspired to help in building a connection with our creator through Dhikr, being a fundamental and an integral part of our life. The Prophet ﷺ said, “The most beloved of deeds to Allah are those that are most consistent, even if it is small”. [Bukhaari and Muslim]. Dhikr, or remembrance of Allah (SWT), comprises of two main notions: movement of your tongue and its effects in your heart. It should not only be felt as movement of your tongue, but also felt deep in your heart. Uttering the blessed words of “SubhanAllah” and “Alhamdulillah” is, of course, in itself a bounty. But when you become deeply engaged in the Dhikr of Allah (SWT), you are able to truly feel the pureness and love of Allah (SWT) and His religion. Dhikr not only resonates with the specific words, but in a wider scope, accommodates the recitation of the Quran, spreading kindness, and speaking good of others. From this, we learn that any good deed with the right intention is a form of Dhikr.

Allah (SWT) mentions those who remember Him through Dhikr specifically in Surah Al’ Imran, verse 181:

“Who remember Allah while standing or sitting or (lying) on their sides and give thought to the creation of the heavens and the earth, (saying), ‘Our Lord, You did not create this aimlessly; exalted are You (above such a thing); then protect us from the punishment of the Fire’”.

Indeed, if Allah has mentioned those who engage in Dhikr, then He has truly bestowed uncountable and unimaginable rewards on them.

VERILY,
IN THE REMEMBRANCE OF ALLAH
DO HEARTS FIND REST.

Benefits and Rewards

Dhikr, encompassing all good deeds like Salah, reciting Quran, and spreading Islam, carries the honor of being the best deed a Muslim can perform. As we can learn in this Hadith:

“Shall I not inform you of the best of your actions, the purest in the sight of your Lord, which raises your rank to the highest, which is better for you than spending gold and silver, better than meeting your enemy so that you strike at their necks and they strike at yours?’ They replied: ‘Yes, indeed,’ and he said: ‘It is the remembrance of Allah’” (Tirmidhi).

SubhanAllah! Engaging in Dhikr allows us to perform the best of actions and raises our rank to the highest in the eyes of Allah (SWT).
