Islamic Info — Prayers, Ramadan & the Islamic Calendar

By the Editorial Team · reviewed against our sources · updated September 2026 · guidance, not a fatwa

Islamic Info — clear, accurate guides to everyday Islamic worship and the Islamic calendar: the night prayers, the special nights of Ramadan, the sacred months, and the supplications and kalimas Muslims learn. Free, with no sign-up and nothing stored.

Alongside our free Zakat and giving calculators, this section explains the acts of worship and key dates that shape a Muslim’s year — from the night prayers of Ramadan to the six kalimas taught to every child. Each guide gives the essentials plainly, with Arabic, transliteration and English translation where relevant, and links back to the tools you need.

About these guides

Every guide here is written to be accurate and easy to follow. Where we quote the Qur’an or a supplication we give the Arabic with a transliteration and translation, and we reference well-known sources rather than inventing them. On points where the schools of fiqh differ — such as the number of Taraweeh rak’ahs or where Dua-e-Qunoot is recited — we present the main views fairly rather than declaring one correct. For recitation and pronunciation, learn from a qualified teacher; for rulings specific to your situation, consult a scholar.

These guides are general information, not a fatwa. Learn recitation and practice from a qualified teacher, and consult a qualified scholar for rulings specific to your circumstances.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Islamic Info section?

A free set of clear guides to Islamic worship and the calendar — night prayers, the special nights of Ramadan, the sacred months, and supplications — alongside our Zakat and giving calculators.

Are these guides a fatwa?

No. They are general information to help you learn and practise. For a binding ruling on your situation, consult a qualified scholar.

Do you give the Arabic text of prayers and kalimas?

Yes — where relevant we provide the Arabic together with a transliteration and an English translation, and we encourage you to confirm pronunciation with a qualified teacher.

How do you handle differences between the schools of fiqh?

We present the main scholarly views fairly and even-handedly — for example on Taraweeh rak'ahs or the placement of Dua-e-Qunoot — rather than declaring one view the only correct one.

Is any of my data stored?

No. The site is free, needs no sign-up, and the tools run in your browser with nothing stored on our servers.
