Get Started

Muslimtify keeps you consistent with your daily prayers by delivering accurate prayer times and timely desktop notifications. Designed for Linux and Windows, it automatically calculates prayer schedules and reminds you 30, 15, and 5 minutes before the Adhan, or at your own custom intervals, and again when it is time to pray.

All calculations run locally on your machine. No internet connection, no accounts, and no tracking. Muslimtify supports 21 international calculation methods, all madzhab, and every country, with Kemenag as the default method.

Installation​

Every release ships ready-to-run binaries for Linux and Windows on the releases page. Pick the option that matches your system.

Arch Linux (AUR)​

yay -S muslimtify && muslimtify daemon install

Fedora (COPR)​

sudo dnf copr enable rizukirr/muslimtify && sudo dnf install muslimtify && muslimtify daemon install

Debian / Ubuntu (PPA)​

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:rizukirr/muslimtify && sudo apt update && sudo apt install muslimtify && muslimtify daemon install

Windows (winget)​

winget install muslimtify && muslimtify daemon install

Prebuilt binaries (Linux)​

The Linux binaries are dynamically linked, so install the runtime libraries first, then extract and install:

# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt install libnotify4 libcurl4
# Fedora/RHEL
sudo dnf install libnotify libcurl
# Arch
sudo pacman -S libnotify curl

# download from https://github.com/rizukirr/muslimtify/releases/latest
tar xzf muslimtify-<version>-linux-<arch>.tar.gz
sudo cp -r muslimtify-<version>-linux-<arch>/{bin,lib,share} /usr/local/
muslimtify daemon install

Verify any download against the published checksums:

sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS

Prebuilt installer (Windows)​

Download and run the installer that matches your architecture:

muslimtify-<version>-setup-x64.exe      # Intel / AMD
muslimtify-<version>-setup-arm64.exe    # ARM

Build from source​

Install the build dependencies:

# Ubuntu/Debian
sudo apt install git build-essential cmake pkg-config libnotify-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev
# Fedora/RHEL
sudo dnf install git gcc cmake pkgconfig libnotify-devel libcurl-devel
# Arch Linux
sudo pacman -S git base-devel cmake pkgconfig libnotify curl

Then clone, install, and register the background service:

git clone https://github.com/rizukirr/muslimtify.git
cd muslimtify
sudo ./install.sh
muslimtify daemon install

On Windows, run .\install.ps1 instead of ./install.sh (remove later with .\uninstall.ps1).

Quick start​

After installing, confirm the background service is registered:

muslimtify daemon status

If no status is found, register it:

muslimtify daemon install

Muslimtify automatically selects the standard calculation method based on your country and location. Run show to see today's prayer times and verify your configuration:

muslimtify show

If the automatic detection is off, set your location and method manually:

muslimtify location set --auto     # detect location from your IP
muslimtify method --auto           # pick the method for your detected country

That is it. Muslimtify now runs quietly in the background and notifies you before every prayer.
