JazakAllahu khayran for taking the time to explain your position.
I think we've identified the core disagreement. My concern is reducing errors and grounding answers in authentic sources, while your concern is that inference itself is inappropriate in this context.
What I find interesting is that throughout this discussion, I never argued that people should trust a generic LLM. In fact, I have repeatedly explained I implemented safeguards, source grounding, references, and limitations built into the feature. Yet the conversation keeps returning to LLMs in the abstract, rather than the actual implementation being discussed.
For what it's worth, this is also the reason why the feature is only available in French. I deliberately limited its scope rather than presenting it as a source of authority.
The app already includes Ibn Kathir tafsir, and there are safeguards designed to reject content that is not grounded in Quranic sources. There is also a disclaimer inside the app stating that it is trained on Quranic content to help users find information and references, not to provide religious rulings or scholarly opinions.
Most importantly, the user can directly verify the cited verse and source themselves rather than blindly accepting a generated answer. The Quran verses themselves are not generated by the model. Once a verse reference is selected, the verse is displayed directly from a local Quran database without inference. This means the system may retrieve an irrelevant verse, but it cannot invent a Quran verse that does not exist. See it as a Google search trained only for the Quran.
I also showed the app to the imam of my local mosque. He understood how the feature works and viewed it as a useful way to help people find references, rather than as a replacement for scholars.
I appreciate that you took the time to explain your concerns, and I respect your intention to advise. I simply believe we have reached different conclusions on this matter.
May Allah guide us both to what is correct.
Wa alaykoum salam wa rahmatullahi wa barakatouh.
I reached out privately first because I thought this discussion deserved a private conversation. You didn't answer.
Instead, you publicly concluded that the app is harmful without asking a single question about how it works, what safeguards are in place, or what limitations are communicated to users.
Saying that this is "100% wrong" actually proves my point. You show no uncertainty whatsoever, despite not knowing how the system works.
The app is not a generic chatbot answering from memory. It uses retrieval-based grounding, which is exactly the direction explored in recent research on faithful Islamic question answering: arxiv.org/abs/2601.07528
Every source of religious knowledge outside the original Arabic text carries a risk of misunderstanding, including translations, tafsir books, websites, lectures and even human explanations.
The question is not whether a risk exists, but whether we are taking reasonable steps to reduce it. That is precisely why the app grounds answers in retrieved sources rather than relying purely on model memory.
Even the companions of the Prophet were known for their caution and hesitation when answering religious questions. Yet you seem completely certain about a system you have not investigated and whose implementation you do not know.
In Islam, new things are not considered forbidden by default. If someone wishes to claim that such a tool is impermissible, the burden is on them to demonstrate why.
Just yesterday, I was feeling lonely and decided to post an honest message.
I didn’t expect to receive so much support.
And today, I just reached 500 followers! ☺️
I love the indie community.
@BuildWithxAI Hey, I checked MobileMRR, but I’m not really comfortable granting read access to my entire RevenueCat app just to track revenue. It feels a bit too invasive for me.
Unlike iOS ASO, Android app discovery seems to rely much more on SEO signals too: backlinks, indexed pages, website authority, and how well Google understands the app around the web.
So today I improved my website.
Small step, but it should help the Play Store listing rank higher over time.
Storelocalizer has been update.
My open-source tool to easily localize your iOS/Android app is better than ever. You can now create In-App Events and localize them in one click.
@YS Amin thank you. Actually it’s kinda sad because you don’t know what my app is doing but you’re judging very quick. Do you speak french? Did you download the app? Of course I though about it before releasing it. It’s not an AI wrapper.
