## Description

Islamiyat Bahrain is a government-backed cultural app by iGA, developed with the Ministry of Justice, Islamic Affairs & Awqaf, and partners. It provides up-to-date Hijri and Gregorian calendar data, accurate prayer times and Imsakya timings during Ramadan, Qibla direction, and a directory of mosques and Islamic centres across Bahrain. The app follows Shariah, scientific and astronomical standards, including the Al Zubarah/Bahrain Calendar methodology.

Key services include Fa'el Khair for charitable donations, Zakat calculation and payments to the Zakat and Charity Fund, Ramadan Majalis directory with timings and locations, a Hajj and Umrah organizers directory, and a Daily Moon Status feature. It offers year-round utilities with seasonal Islamic events, helping residents stay aligned with Islamic practices and community activities.
