For my Config Makeathon submission, I present... Sabra — a safe space for faith, growth and belonging 🌿
Sabra (ŲµŲØŲ±Ų©) is a social-first faith and wellness app for young Muslims who want a beautiful, non-judgmental space to explore their faith, connect with community, and grow at their own pace.
The problem:
Muslim gen-z are caught between two worlds. Secular wellness apps feel disconnected from their faith. Existing Islamic apps feel outdated and clinical. There's nowhere online that feels like home — somewhere you can be honest about doubt, guilt, growth, and joy without being judged.
The name:
Sabra comes from the Arabic word for patience — rooted in sabbar, the aloe vera plant. It grows in the harshest desert, needs almost nothing, and still heals. That's the energy of this app.
Key features:
→ Scroll-first social feed that feels like Pinterest meets TikTok → AI-guided journaling with psychology-informed prompts → TikTok-style reels for faith talks and personal stories → Anonymous community forum for honest conversations about faith and identity → Word of the day — collectable cards teaching meaningful Arabic concepts → Mosque finder with the ability to request an introduction to a local imam → Prayer tracker with qibla compass → Fasting tracker and faith calendar → Charity donation model — your screen time contributes to real charitable giving, reframing scrolling as productive → Designed by a BSc Psychology graduate — every feature is grounded in behavioural science
Built with Figma Make Designed by myself, Maryam — psychology graduate, solo founder, based in the UK
