Comparisons
Muslim Pro vs Tariq: Which Quran App Should You Use?
A feature-by-feature comparison of Muslim Pro and Tariq — ads, Quran reading, prayer times, habit tracking and price — plus a straight answer on which one fits you.
In short
Choose Muslim Pro if you want the biggest library — audio reciters, halal places and years of features — and don't mind ads unless you pay. Choose Tariq if you want a calm, ad-free app built around actually keeping a daily habit: verse feed with translation and tafsir, prayer checklist, streaks and Lock Screen widgets. Muslim Pro is the bigger app; Tariq is the one you are more likely to still be opening in a month.

The honest summary
These two apps are not really competing for the same job. Muslim Pro is a comprehensive Islamic platform: a Quran with many reciters, prayer times, a community feed, halal place search and a decade of accumulated features. Tariq is a narrow app that does four things — read, pray, remember, keep going — and refuses the fifth.
If you measure by feature count, Muslim Pro wins and it isn't close. If you measure by whether you still open the app in six weeks, the narrower app tends to win, because the thing that breaks a habit is friction, not missing features.
Ads and price
This is the difference most people actually feel. Muslim Pro's free tier is ad-supported, and its premium subscription removes them. Tariq has no ads in any tier; the free tier covers the Quran, prayer times, Qibla and duas, and premium unlocks unlimited daily content and the remaining features.
So the comparison is not free-versus-paid. It is: do you want to pay to remove something, or start without it there?
Reading the Quran
Muslim Pro's strength is audio: a wide choice of reciters and translations, useful if you listen more than you read. Tariq's strength is comprehension for non-Arabic readers — every verse carries translation, transliteration and verse-by-verse tafsir on the same screen, and you can browse the Quran by theme rather than by surah number.
Tariq also puts a verse on your Home and Lock Screen, which sounds cosmetic and turns out not to be. It is the difference between remembering to read and being reminded.
Building the habit
Muslim Pro tracks prayers and offers reminders. Tariq is built around the streak: a daily set of small spiritual actions, a prayer checklist, and a weekly view that makes a missed day visible without making it shameful.
If you have prayed consistently for years, this is noise. If you are rebuilding, it is the entire point of the app.
Common questions
Is Tariq cheaper than Muslim Pro?
Both are free to download with an optional subscription, and both change their pricing over time, so check the current price on each App Store listing. The more useful difference is what the free tier gives you: with Tariq it is ad-free from the start, which is the thing most people were paying Muslim Pro to fix.
Does Tariq have audio recitation like Muslim Pro?
Muslim Pro's reciter library is larger and is one of its genuine strengths. If listening to a specific qari is central to how you read, that is a real reason to stay — and a reason many people keep both apps installed.
