Connecting the Ummah with the Quran, more meaningfully & consistently


Helping Muslims develop a closer relationship with the Quran in an easy, fun and inspired way.

We all intend to spend more time reading and engaging with the book of Allah.

Our fast-paced lifestyles & many distractions often prevent us from achieving this noble intention.


There just never seems to be enough time, right?

We struggle to set up a plan and don’t have the much-needed guidance to overcome the obstacles preventing a closer relationship with the Quran.


Our Solution

Gamified Quran Habits

We are using the science behind gamification and tiny habits to nudge you in the direction of your intention!


Building a relationship with Allah through the Quran is an important part of every Muslim's life. We know that life can sometimes get in the way so we want to help you take advantage of every little opportunity to increase your connection with Allah.

You don't have to set aside hours and hours of your time to read the Quran. With Quran Journey, it’s easy to take a few minutes here and there, because every little bit counts. No more excuses!


An Engaging Quranic Experience

Many applications these days are designed to get your attention and keep you hooked. They are carefully constructed to distract you from purposeful activity into mindless pursuits.

We wanted to break the cycle and create something that keeps you actively engaged in the pursuit of Allah's reward throughout your day.

By changing the intention behind the habit cycle, we are trying to improve your inclination towards reading the Quran.


Here’s our three-step process:

Inspiration - We use social media, inspirational articles, quotes and reminders to get your heart activated.

Habit - Our bot nudges you to read a little bit of Quran each day with his inspiring and motivating messages.

Reward - The best part of the process is seeing the progress you’re making and being rewarded for your actions inshaAllah.


Words of support from Dr Sheikh Haitham Al-Haddad.


Nur: Your Quran Journey Guide

Imagine if you had a friend to remind you to connect with Allah throughout your day, especially when you are caught up in the hustle and bustle of the daily grind. We all need support and encouragement.


Future Vision: AI based Islamic Assistant

Timeline to success


Having studied the Quran apps market in detail it became clear to us that the apps that achieved the highest level of success required a number of years to do so with the top performers taking between 4 and 8 years to reach the high level of usage and downloads they have achieved.

Join us on our Journey

We’ve been working tirelessly on this application for the last year and a half.

Version 0.1 released is only the first step we’ve taken, but we have a long road ahead of us towards realizing our full vision.

We hope that we will be able to raise enough funds to take our project to the next level and offer you a more engaging Quran experience based on our roadmap outlined above.

With ongoing user research and feedback from our users, our roadmap may change a little bit based on what our community needs most but we are firmly focused on making Quran Journey a next-generation Quran relationship-building product.

Give the v0.1 a try and join us on our journey to building a closer relationship with the Quran.
