HolyWayz brings the Quran, Hadith and daily acts of worship together in one clean, fast and ad-free place. This website is the web companion of the HolyWayz Android app: it offers the same Quran reader (Indo-Pak script, Urdu and English translations, tafsir, word-by-word and recitation), hadith collections, prayer times, Qibla, duas, kalimas, the 99 names, tasbeeh, Islamic calendar, zakat calculator, stories, books and guides.
Everything personal – bookmarks, settings, your location for prayer times – stays on your device. There are no accounts, no ads and no tracking. See the privacy policy.
