Add German language support
Category: Feature request Priority: P3 Area: Localization Reports: 1 thread Status: Open
Summary
Replying to the V1 launch announcement, an early beta user praises the app as good and easy to work with and asks whether more languages are coming. When Abdellatif asked which languages she'd like, she specifically requested German, noting there are many German speakers who do not know English, and offered her own experience doing English-to-German tafsir translation — a potential volunteer/contributor for the localization effort. Abdellatif committed in-thread: "We can add german to our list of languages insha'Allah."

Initial ask:
I really think its a good app and easy to work with. Are there other languages coming up?
When asked which language:
German I know we have lots of people they don't speak English.
I do Tafisir translation English - German. If you can add the languages to the app InshaAllah more people can join then.
Details / repro
- The thread is a reply to the 2026-08-05 V1 launch email, so she is an early/beta user.
- Her mail client locale is German (German quoting headers), consistent with a German-speaking user base she references.
- She offers relevant translation experience (English-German tafsir translation) — worth contacting if a German localization or German content review is staffed.
- Abdellatif has already publicly committed to adding German to the language list; expectation is set with the user.
