Unlock Your God-centered Emotional Potential by Supporting Muraqaba


Campaign objective

Muraqaba app aims to revive and make the rich contemplation and meditation tradition of Muslims and Islamic scholars accessible to the masses and the palms of Muslim hands to cultivate God-centered emotional wellbeing. We have soft launched our app to 100 pre-subscribers and started building in the features and functionalities suggested by the community. We're also holding a live meditation practice each week exclusively for our subscribers and nurturing the community as we go! 

Now it's time to launch the app to the public and go live on app stores. Your support will help us in funding the final stretch of Content and App development for the app. The funds will go into recording audios for duas, Quranic verses and new meditation categories that users have requested for and completing the app's development for a seamless user experience. Insha Allah 

The Problem Space

We live in a Volatile, Uncertain, Complex, and Ambiguous (VUCA) world. We are more distracted, stressed, overwhelmed, and suffering diverse emotional difficulties. Muraqaba brings back a God-centered, faith-based mindfulness and meditation practice to provide the daily spiritual and emotional training we need to find relief from the difficulties, distractions, and stress of modern life. 

Methodology and Scholarly Guidance:

Muraqaba incorporates the Islamic art of contemplation, meditation, and God-centered presence in ready-to-use guided practices to bring the essence of beautiful verses of the Qur'an, name of Allah, Prophetic Dua's, Adhkaar, affirmation, and more to provide relief to the emotional difficulties Muslims are facing and cultivate spiritual and emotional wellbeing.

The Muraqaba team is developing the content at the intersection of evidence-based neuroscience and the Muslim tradition of cultivating Hudhur, Dhikr, Tafakkur, Tadabbur, Muraqaba, Taqwa, and Ihsaan to build emotional resilience and well-being in a God-centered, culturally relevant environment.

We continuously seeks guidance from Islamic scholars and psychologists in its content motivation and methodologies. After Qur'an, and Sunnah, one of the key scholarly influences on our content is Imam Ghazzali.

The Team

Our content creators are seasoned subject matter specialists in the field of Mental Wellness. Our team collectively brings over 15 years of experience in Mindfulness, Emotional Intelligence, and Mindset training, as well as Islamic Psychology integrating the work of Muslim scholars and tradition in our meditation, contemplation, and affirmation practices to overcome mental and emotional distress, negativity, and challenges that hurt our focus, calmness, peace, purpose, or productivity. Our specialists include but are not limited to.

The Muraqaba app also draws on our teachers' expertise, certification, and education in Islamic Psychology, Mindfulness, Emotional Intelligence, and Neuroscience to incorporate evidence-based tools of mental and emotional well-being training while we focus on reviving an authentic experience of God and Faith centered guided mindfulness practices inspired by Qur'an, Sunnah, and Scholarly teachings.

Hear From Our Students

Muraqaba founder Br. Wadud successfully designed and implemented a Mindfulness Masterclass worth 6 cohorts over the last 4 years with 1000s participating in his various Mindfulness courses. Muraqaba's work is informed by the rich experience of developing and teaching the Masterclass and seeing its impact on emotional well-being and productivity in our alumni.

A peaceful and productive world can only come from humans who are present, mindful, calm, and healed. When you support Muraqaba.App, you contribute to God-centered healing, spiritually and emotionally grounded peace and productivity. Muraqaba aims to bring the tools of unlocking your God-centered emotional potential into the palms of your hand.

Why your support matters:

Our mission is to bring mindfulness and emotional wellbeing rooted in Islamic teachings to Muslims worldwide. With your generous support, we are just $15,000 away from completing the app’s development and launching it publicly in 2025, In sha Allah. 

Your donation will help us:

  • Empower Muslims with tools for God-centred mindfulness and emotional well-being.
  • Contribute to building an important and accessible resource for the Ummah.
  • Be a lasting source of ongoing rewards for you, In sha Allah.

This Giving Tuesday, we invite you to join us in a powerful act of Sadaqah Jariyah by supporting the Muraqaba app. Every contribution, big or small, brings us closer to making this dream a reality.

Exciting update: Great Progress on Muraqaba App!

Assalamualaykum ✨

Jazakallahu Khairan to this beautiful community for continually supporting our efforts. We have some exciting Post-Ramadan updates on the progress we’ve made on Muraqaba App

✨ Shawwal: April
- We completed developing our MVP (Minimum Viable Product) and started closed beta testing with our core team and some community members. In this phase the focus was to find bugs and ensure the quality of our content.

🕌 Dhul-Qadah: May
- We fixed quite a few bugs and began collecting feedback by conducting user testing sessions with some of our community members. We’ve got some really insightful feedback to build the next version! Alhamdulillah.

🕋 Dhul Hijjah: June
- ⁠As our developers begin to work on the next version - our MLP (Minimum Loveable Product ♥️), we will be ready to open testing access to all our *Pre subscribers* to give them an early sneak peak into the app. Insha Allah

⭐ Muharram: End of July
- Our core team from around the world will be getting together in Dallas to create a strategy for the new year ✨
- ⁠Bismillah! With this we should be ready to go live by end of Muharram and make the app accessible to the global community on both AppStore and playstore.


Keep the Muraqaba Team in your duas and we hope to get your continual support to maintain our pace and progress 🤲🏼

Sincerely,

Team Muraqaba
