Manarah: A Khutbah Translation Service for Your Phone

Field notes

Manarah is designed to run on the listener's phone rather than requiring a mosque to install or approve anything. The page describes language selection at first launch, automatic detection of Arabic and local-language switching, prose-style transcript display, and a post-sermon corrected version. Its Qur'an policy is unusually explicit: recognized verses receive a citation and named scholarly translation, while uncertain recognition produces no translation. The homepage says one complete khutbah per month will remain free and lists iPhone and Android as forthcoming platforms.
