Future Communications launches unique mobile Application for Hajj

Future Communications Company announced the launch of a bouquet of value-added services to mark the advent of the pilgrimage season namely "Hajj and Umrah, Hadith, Islamic Organizer," as add-on applications for the first time.

Retail VAS Manager in Future Communications Company Madian Mansouer said that: "One of these services is the "Holy Quran" including a complete voice recitation in Ottoman calligraphy and interpretation supported with search within the verse, Sura or the whole Quran, as well as the ability to search for a specific word or part of it using multiple languages interface.

It also includes a service for listening to the Quran as recited by Heikh Al-Hodaifi. Mr. Mansouer said that: "the application as released allows identifying a set of verses to listen to at any given time of choice".

As such, it also comes handy as a tool to memorize the Holy Quran, where users can view the rules of recitation in color, and the user can download audio files of the Quran directly to the mobile phone.

The second application is the "Pilgrimage and Umrah", which can be used by a mobile user as a valuable source of information on the performance of the Hajj and Umrah and includes supplications and invocations, in addition to the most famous places that pilgrims may come by.

The special characteristics of such application is that it contains a "Pilgrimage Calendar" which lists the duties and rituals to be performed in the days of Hajj starting from the eighth to the thirteenth days of the month of Thu al-Hijjah.
