Sutrah

Free · No card · Nothing to resync, ever

A calendar that leaves room for salah.

Every prayer has a window, not a single fixed minute. Sutrah reads your day, places each block in real free time inside that window, and quietly moves it when things change.

Connects with

  • Google Calendar
  • Outlook
  • Apple Calendar
Dhuhr stays valid for hours. The block just found the honest gap.

The problem

You do not miss salah because you forget.

You miss it because the day was booked by someone else.

  1. 01

    Prayer apps remind you. They do not protect the time.

  2. 02

    Your real life runs on a calendar, and colleagues book whatever looks free.

  3. 03

    A fixed block lands on top of the standup, so you decline it, then ignore it.

  4. 04

    Times shift every single day, so any manual schedule is wrong within a week.

  5. 05

    You end up rushing the end of the window, or making the prayer up later.

The difference

Why a fixed block never held.

Most tools drop a repeating event at the start of Dhuhr and call it done. That is the version everyone has already tried and quietly abandoned.

What you have now

A recurring 12:30 block

  • Fires at the same clock time all year while the sun moves
  • Lands on top of the standup, so you decline it or ignore it
  • Goes stale the week your team shifts its meeting rhythm
  • Tells you nothing when the window has already closed

What Sutrah does

A window-aware block

  • Recomputed daily from your coordinates and calculation method
  • Slides to the open gap inside the valid window, meetings intact
  • Re-optimizes on its own when your calendar changes
  • Prompts you to log it as prayed or as qada when the window closes

The whole year

Maghrib moves by four hours. Set this up once anyway.

Salah times swing wildly between winter and summer. Sutrah recalculates every night for your location, calculation method and madhab, so nothing ever needs resyncing.

  • Recalculated nightly, up to three months ahead
  • Travels with you, so flights on your calendar are picked up
  • Ramadan reshapes the day with suhoor, iftar and taraweeh

Everything included

Built for the working day between adhans.

Everything here comes from the same starting point: the prayer is fixed, the calendar is not, and you should not have to renegotiate that every week.

Every time you need

Prayer windows, sunrise, Islamic midnight, the last third of the night, and qibla. A whole month, ready to print or export.

Placement that reads the room

The optimizer picks the best open slot inside each window and runs again when someone books over it.

The calendar you already use

Two-way sync with Google and Outlook, a webcal feed for Apple. Three months ahead, marked busy.

Travel that sorts itself out

Flights on your calendar are detected. Times recalculate at the destination, with qasr and jam' notes.

Ramadan and Jumu'ah, handled

Suhoor, iftar and taraweeh reshape the day. Friday uses your masjid's real khutbah time plus a buffer.

A qada ledger, not a guilt trip

Missed a window? Log the makeup in one tap. The ledger tracks it and finds you a slot to pray it.

Who it is for

If your day runs on a calendar, it fits.

The problem is not forgetting. It is a week that fills itself. Whoever books your time, salah should already be on the schedule.

Corporate professionals

Protect salah between back-to-back meetings without a negotiation every week.

Founders and freelancers

Build the day around prayer instead of fitting prayer into whatever is left.

Students

Stay consistent through lectures, labs and the week before a deadline.

Anyone with a full week

Shift work, clinics, site visits, school runs. If it fills a calendar, it fits.

How it works

Two minutes now. Nothing after that.

  1. 1

    Connect your calendar

    Sign in with Google or Outlook and smart placement is on immediately. On Apple, subscribe to a webcal feed instead.

  2. 2

    Set location and madhab

    Pick where you actually pray. Then tune calculation method, block length and busy status for each prayer.

  3. 3

    Let the blocks land

    Every block goes into an open slot inside that prayer's valid window, with a buffer around the meetings on either side.

Start for free

No daily syncing, no manual updates, no spreadsheet taped to a monitor.

Calendars

Works with what you already open every morning.

If your work calendar is locked down, the pull-only feed still delivers the times. You lose placement, not salah, and there is a page you can send to IT.

Before you connect anything

Questions people actually ask.

What does it read from my calendar?

Event start and end times, so it can tell a free hour from a booked one. Titles are only inspected when travel mode is on, to spot flights. The Google and Microsoft permissions requested are calendar events only, so it has no access to your email.

What do my colleagues see?

A block on your calendar named after the prayer, showing as busy by default. You can rename what appears, set any prayer to show as free, or turn a prayer off entirely in settings.

Which calculation methods are supported?

The common conventions including ISNA, Muslim World League, Umm al-Qura, Egyptian and Karachi, plus Hanafi or standard Asr and three high-latitude rules. Times come from the adhan library, and you should still check them against your local masjid.

Does it work if I cannot connect a work calendar?

Yes. The webcal feed is pull-only: any client that accepts a subscription URL can refresh it on its own schedule, often about every 12 hours. That includes Apple Calendar and locked-down Outlook. You lose conflict-aware placement, since nothing can read your meetings, but the times and reminders still arrive.

Can I use it only for prayer times and skip the calendar?

Yes. The times screen gives you today's prayers with their windows, sunrise, Islamic midnight, the last third of the night, qibla and a printable month, and none of it needs a calendar connected. Add it to your home screen and it behaves like an app.

Is it really free?

Yes, and there is no card to enter. It exists because praying five times a day around a full calendar is a solved problem that nobody had solved properly.

Get started

Put salah on the calendar and leave it there.

Connect Google or Outlook for conflict-aware placement, or subscribe on Apple in one tap. Free, with no card and no trial that quietly ends.
