What's new on the AL-HARAMEEN site: a tour of the new release and its features

If you knew our old website you will notice at once that everything has changed. Here is a practical tour of what the new release offers and why we built it this way.

Built to be fast on any device

The new site is made of light pages that load in an instant even on slow networks and older devices: no pop-ups, no advertising, and no tracking you do not need. Images load only when needed and the data is compressed.

Official prayer times first

Every city has a clear source: where a country has an official authority we use its table, otherwise the calibrated AL-HARAMEEN engine. You can see your city's source in the city explorer, and we checked millions of values against the authorities before publishing.

The live prayer panel

  • The time now to the second, with a 12-hour or 24-hour format of your choice.
  • The next prayer with a countdown and a progress ring.
  • The Hijri (Umm al-Qura) and Gregorian dates together.
  • Five featured cities with live clocks: Makkah, Madinah, Jerusalem, Kuala Lumpur, Istanbul.

A page for every model

Each of our 121 models has its own page: a photo gallery, the features, the technical specifications, links to buy from our official store, and a button to start the setup with the smart assistant. Share the link on WhatsApp and the watch's photo and name appear immediately.

Finder and comparison

Not sure which watch suits you? Answer a few short questions in the finder, or put two or three models side by side in the comparison tool.

The support centre

Official manuals and videos, organised by watch family and by task: city, time and date, daylight saving, azan sound and muezzin, alarms, Qibla, language and reset.

12 languages

Every page of the site exists in twelve languages, with a language switch at the top of each page. City names appear in Arabic for Arabic, Urdu and Pashto, and in English for the other languages.

Security and privacy

The whole site runs on HTTPS with a permanent certificate and collects no personal data: your city and time-format choices are stored on your own device only.

Start on the home page and pick your city, then type your watch model into the smart search — and see the difference for yourself.
