Designed for Singapore · MUIS times · Always up-to-date
No radio. Just the adhan. On time.
Other prayer clocks calculate. Nuur doesn't.
It reads Singapore's prayer times directly from MUIS —
the religious authority. What glows through the wood veneer
is exactly what your mosque follows.

نور
Built exclusively for Singapore. Nuur is an Islamic prayer clock — wall-mounted or free-standing on a table —
with a luminous display hidden behind a clean wooden finish —
quietly present day and night, warmed into amber at every prayer.
Prayer times come directly from MUIS — Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura — and refresh nightly.
What appears on your wall is exactly what Singapore's religious authority has published.
Nothing calculated. Nothing assumed.
The story behind Nuur
We didn’t want to listen to the radio.
We just wanted to hear the adhan.
I'm German, I reverted to Islam, and I married into a Malay Singaporean family.
Whenever I sat in my wife's parents' living room before Maghrib, I watched someone get up,
cross the room, and switch on Warna 942 — Singapore's one station that plays the adhan.
Then a property agent's hotline and a fast food jingle would blast through the house, followed by
the same old song that was on the day before. Actually nobody wanted to hear any of that.
We just wanted to hear the adhan, on time.
Prayer clocks existed, but they used formulas that were different from what MUIS publishes — often by several minutes.
Those minutes matter, especially at Fajr and Iftar.
As a software engineer, building the clock I wished existed felt like the obvious answer.
Nuur reads prayer times directly from MUIS —
the same source Warna uses — so what sounds in your home is exactly what every mosque in Singapore observes.
No approximations. No manual updates. It sits quietly behind its wood face until it's really time to call the adhan.
Then it goes quiet again.
Built for Singapore
What this clock does differently.
MUIS-Official Times
Not calculated. Not approximated. Sourced daily from Singapore's religious authority.
The same times published for every mosque, every household, in Singapore.
Part of your Home
Over 4,000 LEDs sit behind an elegant wooden face built to feel
like furniture, not electronics — at home on a shelf or wall.
Quietly dim day to day, then warmed into amber at every prayer.
Pre-Adhan Ambiance
Five to ten minutes before each prayer, the room shifts.
Soft audio, amber glow. The household is ready before the call is made —
no competitor offers this.
Auto Ramadan Mode
Follows MUIS's published Islamic calendar for Singapore. If MUIS ever revises a date
after moon sighting, every Nuur picks up the change on its next sync,
comfortably ahead of the next Fajr. Imsak times, day count,
Lailatul Qadar nights — all automatic.
Singapore Islamic Calendar
Twelve events. MUIS-confirmed Hijri dates — not Saudi Arabia's,
not a formula's. Singapore's moon-sighting, Singapore's
determination, each event with a live countdown.
Full Quran
All 114 surahs, multiple reciters, sleep timer built in.
Streams over your WiFi, with a backup reciter saved on the device
as a fallback if the connection drops.
Updates Itself
Updates download and install overnight, verified before they take
effect. If anything ever looks wrong, Nuur automatically moves
back to the last working version. No cables, no app store.
Control From Any Browser
Adjust volume, brightness, and reciters, or start Quran playback,
from your phone's browser — changes reach the device in seconds.
No app to install, no account to create.
Keeps Working Offline
Thirty days of prayer times stored on the device, and a battery-backed
clock that keeps perfect time — Nuur calls the adhan through any WiFi
outage, then reconnects on its own.
How we compare
Nuur vs. everything else.

The difference that matters
"Other clocks estimate.
We fetch."
Every prayer clock on the market — at any price —
generates times using mathematical formulas.
Those formulas were tuned for global use, and they differ
between schools, organisations, and countries.
In Singapore, this means they routinely diverge from what MUIS publishes
by two to five minutes — on the most significant moments of your day.
Nuur carries no formula. Each night, our service retrieves
the times MUIS has published for the day ahead, and every Nuur picks
them up on its next sync. What appears on your wall is what MUIS
has said — nothing more.

Singapore Islamic Calendar
Twelve events. MUIS-confirmed dates.
Global adhan clocks follow Saudi Arabia's moon sighting or
a fixed calculation — which can fall a day earlier or later
than what MUIS announces for Singapore.
Nuur tracks all twelve key Islamic events using MUIS's annual
calendar publication, updated automatically on each sync.
Every countdown on your wall reflects Singapore's religious determination,
not a global default.

What people are saying
Early feedback.
“Honestly I was wondering why nobody made this earlier. Everyone has
a prayer clock these days but none of them are correct. And this one doesn't look
like an electronic device at all, more like part of the interior design.
Won't be surprised if Malaysia starts asking for this too.”
Abdul Rashid
Bukit Batok, Singapore
“This is genius. I can control everything from my phone, don't even
need to download an app. What I like most is the Quran fades out right on
time before the next prayer starts — really thought of every detail.”

Nuur reads prayer times directly from MUIS — Majlis Ugama Islam Singapura.
Our service retrieves MUIS's official publication every night,
and each device picks up the latest schedule on its regular sync. These are
the same times used by every mosque in Singapore. No calculation, no formula.
For prayer times and the adhan, only for periodic syncing — Nuur
checks in every 6 hours to pick up any prayer-time or settings
updates. Its battery-backed clock keeps perfect time without WiFi,
and it stores 30 days of MUIS prayer times on the
device, so short outages go unnoticed. If a few syncs
fail, it shows a gentle offline reminder — reconnecting resolves it
automatically. Prayer times, adhan audio, and the Islamic calendar
keep working throughout. Quran recitation streams live over WiFi
so you can pick from multiple reciters — if the connection drops,
Nuur automatically restarts the current surah with a backup
reciter saved on the device, rather than going silent.
No. Setup is done entirely in your phone's browser —
Nuur broadcasts its own WiFi network on first power-on,
and a setup page opens automatically. Once connected to your home WiFi,
all ongoing configuration — including volume, brightness, reciters,
and starting or stopping Quran playback — is available at a
bookmarkable web address, with changes reaching the device in seconds.
No app download, no account, no App Store.
Nuur's Ramadan mode follows MUIS's officially published Islamic
calendar — the same dates every mosque in Singapore uses. In the
rare case MUIS revises the 1st of Ramadan after a moon sighting,
our team updates the calendar the same day, and every device picks
it up on its next sync (within 6 hours) — comfortably before the
next Fajr. Once active: Imsak time replaces Fajr, the Ramadan day
count appears, and Lailatul Qadar nights are highlighted
(with special attention to the 27th). No manual intervention needed
on your part.
The face is 0.3mm natural wood veneer — thin enough for light to glow
warmly through at prayer time, while appearing as solid wood when
the display is off. A light warm tint deepens the amber you see
through the grain. Two coats of matte polyurethane
protect the surface — no high gloss, no plastic feel.
No microphone. No camera. Nuur has no means to listen to
or record anything in your home. The device does check in with our service
regularly — a brief status ping (connection status, uptime) roughly
every hour, plus its periodic prayer-time sync — which is what lets it
apply settings changes within seconds and show a warning if it ever goes
offline. This is device health data only: no ad network, no data resold
to anyone. Your prayer times and settings stay tied to your device, not
your identity.
Yes — independently per prayer. Fajr can use a different reciter and volume
from Maghrib. Reciter selection and per-prayer volume (0–15) are configured
through the web settings page. Multiple adhan recordings are included on the device.
No single global volume — every prayer is its own profile.
A small team led by a software engineer, German, now living in Singapore — the same
person who wrote the firmware, tested every OTA update rollback path, and picked
the wood veneer. Hardware is a newer skill; the discipline isn't. Every prayer
window, every audio cue, every settings sync is tested the way software is tested,
before it's allowed anywhere near your Fajr.
No — brightness follows the prayer schedule automatically, dimming
after Isha and brightening again before Fajr, so it stays unobtrusive
on a bedside shelf overnight. Per-prayer volume works the same
way: most households set Fajr to a whisper so it wakes the room
gently rather than jolting it.
Yes — Nuur runs on USB-C power continuously, the same way a lamp or
a speaker would. The battery-backed clock is a small
internal backup that keeps the time and date correct through a power
cut or unplug; it doesn't run the display, audio, or WiFi on its own.
Once power is restored, Nuur picks up exactly where it left off.
Nuur connects to standard 2.4GHz WiFi — the same band
most phones and smart home devices use. If your router broadcasts a
single combined network name, this just works. If it separates 2.4GHz
and 5GHz into two networks, connect Nuur to the 2.4GHz one during setup.
It isn't early — the others are late. Radio adhan travels through
a studio broadcast chain before it reaches your speaker, and a
phone app's push notification has to clear its provider's delivery
queue before your phone even rings. Both add a real lag on top of
the actual prayer time. Nuur skips that chain entirely: the
schedule is stored on the device and checked against its own
battery-backed clock, so the adhan fires the
moment that clock hits the minute — no network round-trip and no
broadcast pipeline in between.
Not yet. Nuur is built specifically around MUIS's published
times for Singapore, so the first production run ships to
Singapore addresses only. We've heard interest from Malaysia and are
tracking it for a future batch, but there's no confirmed timeline —
register your interest and we'll reach out if that changes.
