MoLock

Prayer times, alive on your desktop. Accurate, offline.

A live widget on your desktop and on the lock screen: the next prayer highlighted, a countdown that ticks, the Hijri date — calculated on your PC with the method your local authority uses. Adhan or a gentle reminder, Ramadan mode and a Friday reminder, all in one place.

01 / 09How it works

Pick your city. The rest is astronomy.

Times are calculated from the sun's position for your exact location — no service to call, nothing to download each day.

  1. 01Step 1/3

    Choose your city

    Search the built-in city list offline, or let Windows location find you.

  2. 02Step 2/3

    Match your mosque

    Pick the calculation method your local authority uses, Shafi'i or Hanafi Asr, and nudge any prayer by a minute or two if your mosque does.

  3. 03Step 3/3

    Place the widget

    Drag it anywhere on the desktop, compact or expanded. Click it for the month's timetable.

02 / 09What it does

Every prayer, on time. Without opening anything.

The widget lives where you already look: on your desktop while you work, and on the lock screen when you step away.

  • Active desktop widget

    Live countdown, next prayer highlighted, compact or expanded, draggable — stays under your windows and hides in full-screen apps.

  • Lock-screen widget

    The day's prayers and the countdown, right on the MoLock lock screen.

  • Adhan or a gentle reminder

    Open-licensed recordings, pre-reminders before each prayer, and media paused at adhan time.

  • Calm prayer lock

    Optional: a peaceful lock screen for the minutes you choose — time to step away.

  • Ramadan mode

    Imsak and iftar countdowns and a suhoor alarm.

  • Friday reminder

    A reminder before Jumu'ah, at the time you set.

  • Hijri date

    Umm al-Qura calendar, adjustable by up to two days to match your country's sighting.

  • Daily times on Telegram

    Optional morning message with the day's times — and a snooze button on reminders.

03 / 09Accurate methods

Why apps differ by minutes. And how to match yours.

Fajr and Isha depend on how far the sun is below the horizon — and authorities choose different angles. Asr depends on shadow length, which differs between schools. MoLock lets you pick each rule explicitly.

  • Ten methodsEgyptian General Authority of Survey, Umm al-Qura, Muslim World League, ISNA, Karachi, Dubai, Kuwait, Qatar, Singapore and Turkey.
  • Asr and high latitudesShafi'i or Hanafi Asr, plus rules for places where twilight barely ends in summer.
  • Minute offsetsAdd or subtract minutes per prayer to match your local mosque's timetable.

Hear the adhan. Keep a hadith in view.

MoLock 3.0 adds real adhan audio and an optional hadith widget — both off until you choose them, both respectful of focus and quiet hours.

  • Adhan audioFull adhan, a short version or a gentle chime, with a choice of muezzin — plus a toast and a lock-screen banner. Openly licensed recordings, credited in About.
  • Offline or online timesThe offline calculation stays the default; you can switch to an online source, with automatic fallback to offline if it can’t be reached.
  • Hadith widget (opt-in)Curated authentic hadiths in their original Arabic, with source, number and grading — on the desktop, the lock screen or as a toast, every 15 minutes up to once a day.
  • No repeatsA hadith isn’t shown again until the whole set has been seen. English meanings appear only where a properly licensed translation exists.

Your location stays on your PC.

Prayer times are calculated on the PC from your city's coordinates. Nothing about your prayers is tracked, and no daily history is kept for this feature.

  • Fully offline

    No service is called to get the times; the widget works on a plane.

  • City, not GPS trail

    Only the chosen city is used; your movements are never recorded.

  • Encrypted settings sync

    Your prayer settings sync to the dashboard end-to-end encrypted, so you can change them from your phone.

06 / 09Dashboard & bot

The timetable in your pocket. Snooze in one tap.

The dashboard shows the month's timetable for each PC and edits its prayer settings remotely. Choose whether Telegram sends the daily times; a reminder that catches you mid-meeting can be snoozed from the bot.

  • Every feature has a page in the dashboard: its live state, its history and its settings — and the PC follows what you change.
  • Notification preferences and quiet hours decide what the bot sends; each button works once and the message is updated with the result.

07 / 09Limits

Exactly what it does. And what it doesn't.

  • A minute or two either way

    Published timetables round differently and some add precautionary minutes. Use the offsets to match your mosque.

  • Hijri date and moon sighting

    The calendar is calculated; your country may announce a month a day earlier or later — adjust by ±2 days.

  • Not a religious ruling

    MoLock calculates; your local religious authority decides which method applies where you live.

09 / 09Questions

Prayer times

All questions

Which calculation method should I choose?

The one your local religious authority uses — for example the Egyptian General Authority of Survey in Egypt or Umm al-Qura in Saudi Arabia. Then fine-tune any prayer by a minute or two to match your mosque.

Do prayer times need the internet?

No. They are calculated on your PC from your city's coordinates, so the desktop and lock-screen widgets keep working offline.

Can I hear the adhan, or just a reminder?

Either. Choose an adhan (open-licensed recordings) or a gentle tone, add a reminder before each prayer, and let MoLock pause music or video at adhan time. Ramadan mode adds imsak and iftar countdowns and a suhoor alarm.

Does MoLock play the adhan? What is the hadith widget?

Yes, since 3.0: full adhan, short or a chime, with a choice of muezzin, a toast and a lock-screen banner. The hadith widget is optional and off by default: curated authentic hadiths in Arabic with source, number and grading, at the interval you choose, with no repeats until the set is done.
