The month of Ramadan is one of the most important periods to the Muslim community around the globe. It’s a month of fasting and praying but does have some rules too. Muslims should not eat or drink anything from early morning all the way to late afternoon. They are also encouraged to pray more to connect with their maker. Thanks to Ramadan apps for iPhone, Muslims around the globe can fast and pray more (at the right time) with less headaches.
If you are a Muslim or know someone who belongs to that community, you should give these 10 Ramadan apps a look (Updated 07/20/12):
Azan Alarm Clock: you may be fasting this month, but as far as I know (and I am not a Muslim) you still need to pray at least 5 times each day. This app helps you get up at the right time for your morning prayer.
Ramadan Recipes: fasting all day long for a month can be painful. Thanks to this app, you will learn how to cook new meals for Suhoor and Iftar to keep things interesting.
Qibla AR: an augmented reality application that finds you the location of the Kaaba wherever you are. It takes the guesswork out of the process.
