The Challenge

Existing Islamic apps often felt cluttered, outdated, or lacked cultural sensitivity. Users struggled with:

• Poor navigation to daily duas and guidance.

• Limited or no voice interaction features.

• Interfaces not optimized for multilingual users in a German context.

We set out to create a daily companion that feels both smart and soulful.

My Role

• UX Research & Persona Building

• Wireframes & User Flow Mapping

• High-Fidelity UI Design

• Interactive Prototype Creation

The Process

1. Research & Empathy Mapping

• Interviewed 7 community members to learn about pain points and daily habits.

• Mapped language preferences (Arabic, German, English) to interaction flows.

2. Ideation & Wireframing

Designed low-fidelity flows for quick access to:

• Voice search

• Favorites library

• Duas and religious guidance

• Prioritized minimal taps to reach content.

3. Visual Direction

• Palette inspired by modern minimalism + traditional geometric patterns.

• Typography choices ensured readability across Arabic and Latin scripts.

4. Prototyping & Interaction Design

• Smooth voice query transitions.

• Instant language switch without losing current page state.

The Solution

• AI-Powered Voice Search – Users can speak queries in multiple languages.

• Favorites & Quick Access – Personal library for daily content.

• Culturally Mindful UI – Respectful, modern design language.

• Multilingual UX – German, Arabic, English seamlessly integrated.

Impact

• Reduced search-to-content time by ~40% (prototype testing).

• Received strong positive feedback from test group for clarity and cultural sensitivity.

• Delivered a developer-ready UI kit + clickable prototype.
