Athan Prayer Times Web App 🕌

Introduction

Athan (also spelled Adhan) 📣 is the Islamic call to prayer, traditionally given by a muezzin from a minaret of a mosque five times a day to summon Muslims for mandatory worship. As one of the most profound symbols of Islamic faith, it resonates deeply with Muslims worldwide, symbolizing discipline, spirituality, and unity.

This web app, Athan Prayer Times, is designed to help Muslims organize their daily prayers by providing accurate prayer times based on their current location or a city of their choice. 🌍

Features

• Automatic Geolocation: The app automatically detects the user's current location to display prayer times. (Note: Requires user permission for geolocation access. 🛰️)
• City-based Times: Users can also manually enter a city name to get prayer times. 🏙️
• Responsive Design: Sleek, modern, and responsive design suitable for various devices. 📱💻
• Hero Image Background: Features a calming and thematic hero image as the background. 🖼️

   • Fajr (pre-dawn)
