More than a pregnancy tracker — a spiritual companion

Most pregnancy apps focus only on symptoms, kick counts, and appointments. But for Muslim mothers, pregnancy is also a profound act of worship — a time for increased dua, gratitude, and reliance on Allah. Hamila is the first app built with both realities in mind.

Every feature in Hamila is designed with the Muslim mother's full experience in view: practical health tools sit alongside duas for each trimester, Quranic recitation recommendations, and guidance on Islamic birth practices — all in one calm, beautiful app.

Whether you are a first-time mother or welcoming your fourth child, Hamila grows with you — from the dua of conception through to the adhān after birth and the aqīqah celebration beyond.

Everything You Need, in One App

From the first trimester to birth and beyond, Hamila supports every step of your Islamic pregnancy journey.

Week-by-Week Pregnancy Tracking

Follow your baby's development from conception to birth with medically informed weekly updates. Track weight, symptoms, kick counts, and key milestones all in one place — so you always know what's happening and what to expect next.

Duas, Dhikr & Adhkar for Every Stage

Access a curated collection of duas and adhkar drawn from the Quran and Sunnah, organised by trimester and situation — from early pregnancy anxieties and requesting a righteous child, to the final weeks before birth and gratitude after delivery.

Personalised Islamic Birth Plan

Create a birth plan that centres your Islamic values — including your preferences for recitation in the delivery room, adhān after birth, aqīqah planning, and tahnik. Share it with your midwife or birth team with one tap.

Contraction & Labour Timer

Time your contractions accurately with a one-touch interface during labour. The app records duration and frequency automatically, helping you and your care team know when it's time to head to the hospital or birth centre.

Muslim Mothers Community

Join a private, moderated community of Muslim mothers from around the world. Share your journey, ask questions, and find support from women who understand the unique experience of navigating pregnancy with faith at the centre.

Quran, Surahs & Islamic Resources

Access recommended surahs for pregnancy, a complete dua library, and curated Islamic guidance on topics like breastfeeding, naming your child, and post-birth rituals — all sourced from recognised Islamic scholarship.

What to Expect Each Trimester — The Islamic Way

Hamila walks alongside you through all three trimesters, blending medically informed guidance with spiritually grounding Islamic content.

First Trimester

Weeks 1–13 · Settling your heart

The first trimester often brings a mix of joy, fatigue, and uncertainty. Hamila provides week-by-week updates on your baby's rapid early development alongside duas for conceiving a righteous child, seeking protection from harm, and steadying the heart. Morning sickness tips, nutrition guidance, and your first appointment checklist are all here.

Second Trimester

Weeks 14–27 · Building healthy routines

Energy often returns in the second trimester, making it the ideal time to establish healthy habits. Hamila helps you track baby movements, log your growing weight, and build consistent morning and evening adhkar routines. Guidance on halal nutrition, gentle movement, and preparing for the anatomy scan sit alongside weekly spiritual reflections.

Third Trimester

Weeks 28–40 · Preparing for birth and beyond

The final stretch calls for practical preparation and deep tawakkul. Use Hamila's contraction timer when labour begins, finalise your Islamic birth plan, and pack your hospital bag with our tailored checklist. Post-birth guidance covers the adhān, tahnik, aqīqah, and the duas of new parenthood.

"Finally an app that gets me as a Muslim mother — the duas for each stage are exactly what I needed."

Dua for a Righteous Child — The Dua of Zakariyya

دُعَاءُ الذُّرِّيَّةِ الطَّيِّبَةِ

Standing in the prayer niche, watching Maryam provided for by Allah out of season, the elderly Zakariyya asked for what seemed impossible: a child. Allah recorded his exact words in the Quran — and answered them with Yahya.

This is the dua of every parent who wants more than a healthy baby: a tayyib child — good, pure, and righteous. It asks Allah not just for offspring, but for offspring "min ladunka" — as a gift directly from Him.

1. The Dua of Zakariyya

رَبِّ هَبْ لِي مِن لَّدُنكَ ذُرِّيَّةً طَيِّبَةً ۖ إِنَّكَ سَمِيعُ الدُّعَاءِ

Rabbi hab li min ladunka dhurriyyatan tayyibatan innaka sami'ud-du'a

My Lord, grant me from Yourself a good offspring. Indeed, You are the Hearer of supplication.

Source: Quran 3:38

2. Dua for Comfort of the Eyes

رَبَّنَا هَبْ لَنَا مِنْ أَزْوَاجِنَا وَذُرِّيَّاتِنَا قُرَّةَ أَعْيُنٍ

Rabbana hab lana min azwajina wa dhurriyyatina qurrata a'yunin

Our Lord, grant us from among our spouses and offspring comfort to our eyes.

Source: Quran 25:74

When to Recite It

Recite it throughout pregnancy and beyond — in sujood, between the adhan and iqamah, in the last third of the night, and after the obligatory prayers, when dua is most readily answered. It is equally beloved for couples hoping to conceive.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "dhurriyyatan tayyibah" mean?

Tayyib means good, pure, and wholesome. Zakariyya did not ask merely for a child but for a good child — scholars note the dua teaches parents to attach their hopes to the child's righteousness, not just their existence. The answer was Yahya, of whom Allah said: "righteous among the prophets."

When is dua for a child most likely to be answered?

In the times of accepted dua: the last third of the night, in sujood, between adhan and iqamah, on Friday, while fasting, and during rainfall. Zakariyya's story also teaches persistence — he supplicated into old age without despairing of Allah's answer.
