About

We build calm, faith-aware technology for Muslim mothers.

Our story

Sakina began with a simple observation. Every pregnancy app we tried felt like it was built for someone else. The halal food question was always a Google search away. The dua we wanted to learn wasn’t there. The baby name screen didn’t show Arabic.

So we built the app we wished existed. A beautifully designed pregnancy companion that doesn’t ask you to explain your life. A companion that understands halal, Ramadan, Arabic names, and the tender spiritual weight of bringing a new life into the world.

Our name

Sakina (سَكِينَة) is the Arabic word for tranquility — a calm that settles over the heart. It’s what we want every mother to feel when she opens this app.

What we value

  • Calm over clutter

    We build for stillness, not stimulation. Every screen is considered, every word chosen.

  • Privacy by default

    Your data lives on your device. Cloud backup is optional. We never sell to advertisers.

  • Faith without friction

    No religious mode to toggle. Sakina simply understands that your faith is part of your life.

  • Medically grounded

    Every piece of health content is reviewed. We’re a companion, not a substitute for your doctor.

Where we are

Sakina Wellbeing is a UK-registered company. We’re a small, independent team, building thoughtfully and slowly. We care more about getting it right than getting it big.
