Athan (Azan) Basic

[b]Play the Athan at every prayer time[/b]


This clever utility automatically plays the Athan five times a day at
every prayer time. Covering more than six million cities, towns, and
villages all over the world, the app includes the Calculation Methods,
Hijri-Gregorian date conversion and Qiblah direction. The Athan sounds
from Makkah, Madina and Al-Aqsa are available, and it boasts
multilingual support within the application.


A modern aid for an ancient tradition, Athan Basic helps Muslims
perform daily prayers anywhere in the world. On first start-up, you
choose your location from a pull-down list of cities and towns. From
there, Athan Basic runs in the background, automatically issuing the
call to prayer at the appropriate times each day. You can choose
an Athan from Makkah, Madina, or Al-Aqsa (the for-pay version includes
several more); the program supports the Standard and Hanafi juristic
methods and a variety of ways to calculate sunrise and sunset. The
neatly organized application window displays your latitude and longitude
and a simple compass for orienting yourself toward Mecca. If you're often
far from your computer, you can print out prayer times for a month.
Happily, the program doesn't take much system memory while running in
the background. Straightforward and helpful, Athan Basic is a great
download for observant Muslims.Download
