About
Nur means light.
Three apps, one attitude: everyday tools that want nothing but to be used.
The name
نور — Nur — means light. Every app in the family carries it, because each one attempts the same thing: to make one area of faith a little clearer, without ever raising its voice.
Who is behind this
My name is Harun Mustafa. I trained in software development and work as an IT project manager. I live with my family in Switzerland.
I was born a Muslim. Even so, I only found Islam later, on my own. For a long time I was too shy to ask how to pray — the question seemed too simple to ask, and the thought of being an adult who does not know what everyone else seems to know kept me from it. So it stayed undone. Years.
At some point I started working it out for myself — with the internet, piece by piece. These apps are what I would have needed back then: something that explains without assuming how much you already know. Something that stores nothing and watches no one — because when you are learning, you do not want to be watched.
What I am not
I am not a scholar, and these apps are not religious instruction. They are tools, built by someone who walked the same road and wished it had been easier.
You have to walk the road yourself. I try to accompany you — as best I can.
What I hold to
No ads, no profiles
None of the apps show advertising, none build user profiles, none sell data. Two of the three collect nothing at all.
Offline wherever possible
Whatever can work without a server, works without a server. NurHafiz runs fully offline.
Three languages, equal rank
German, English and Turkish are equal — no language is a second-class translation. The wording follows what the apps themselves say.
