I have long watched with interest how various religious movements use technology: for what purposes and in what contexts.

Although Muslims never succeeded in creating a mass #halal social network (although there were many attempts), they, in my opinion, are the most effective in adapting technology for their purposes in comparison with Christians of different branches.

Perhaps someone remembers, but 10 years ago there was even an Islamic version of #Ubuntu - Sabily #Linux. It contained several dozen programs for studying the Koran, reminders about prayer times, etc., and when downloaded, a recitative in Arabic sounded “in the name of Allah...

Just then, about 10-12 years ago, out of curiosity, I installed it on my laptop, and it was at that moment that the screen should have burned out... I remember an oil painting of how I brought the laptop to the service center, the screen was black, and when I turned it on there was a voice in Arabic praises Allah. However, the servicemen had strong nerves, so no one called the police and dogs to clear the mines.

Actually, that's what I mean. I just saw in the news feed the announcement of another application for studying the Koran, but with a voice assistant and built-in artificial intelligence: Tarteel AI.

It seems to me that Islamic IT is the case when there is money (for the Emirates, Arabia, oil and all things), and somehow they are used constructively.
