Khushu – Muslim app

Khushu is a privacy-focused Islamic application for Linux desktops, tablets, and smartphones.

Built with Rust, GTK4, and Libadwaita, it combines daily religious utilities in a single native interface, including prayer times, Qibla guidance, Hijri calendar support, and Adkar notifications. The software is designed to work with minimal data sharing and performs its core calculations locally on the device.

This is free and open source software.

Key Features

• Displays accurate prayer times using standard calculation methods such as MWL, ISNA, and Egypt.
• Offers flexible location handling with manual coordinates, OpenStreetMap city search, and GeoClue-based automatic detection.
• Provides Adhan playback, bundled or custom MP3 audio, pre-prayer alerts, and native desktop notifications.
• Includes built-in morning and evening Adkar together with a dashboard that shows the current Hijri date.
• Features a modern adaptive Libadwaita interface with dark mode support and system tray integration.
