Salaam Korea

Salaam Korea helps a Muslim visitor in Korea make the next practical decision: where to eat or pray, when to pray, what to ask Korean staff, and who to call in an emergency. The core guide, prayer calculations, saved places, and phrase cards work offline. External maps and source websites may require internet access. No account. No ads. No tracking. EVIDENCE, NOT GUESSWORK Each of the 164 places shows exactly where its information came from: the publisher, the date the source page was updated, the date it was retrieved, and a link to the original record. - KTO listing: currently in the Korea Tourism Organization's Muslim-friendly travel directory - Official regional guide: published by an official city or province tourism organization - Official airport guide: published by Incheon International Airport None of these labels means the venue is currently halal-certified, and the app says so on every place. Recipes, suppliers, cooking alcohol, shared cookware, and certificates all change. The app gives you the evidence, and the phrases to confirm it yourself. PRAYER, CALCULATED ON YOUR DEVICE - Next prayer and the full day's schedule in Korea time (UTC+9) - Qibla as a degree bearing - Four calculation methods and Hanafi Asr - Seoul, Busan, Jeju, Incheon, and Daejeon Times are astronomical estimates. A mosque's iqama may differ. 164 SOURCE-BACKED PLACES 123 eateries and 41 prayer spaces across Seoul, Busan, Jeju, Incheon, Daejeon, Gwangju, and Jeollabuk-do. Filter by region, search by name, neighborhood, or menu, and save places for offline access. SHOW, DON'T STRUGGLE Korean phrase cards you can hold up to staff, each with its meaning in your language and an Arabic reference: - Pork and pork-derived ingredients - Alcohol, including cooking wine such as mirin - Separate cookware for halal and non-halal food - Prayer room, prayer mat, and wudu facilities - Water spray or bidet - Female medical staff Plus an ingredient watch list of Korean label terms worth asking about, emergency numbers, and transit guidance. Phrase cards help you ask. They are not religious rulings. SEVEN COMPLETE INTERFACES English, Korean, Arabic, Indonesian, Malay, Turkish, and Urdu. Arabic and Urdu are fully right-to-left. PRIVACY BY DESIGN No account, no sign-in, no server, no ads, no analytics, no tracking SDKs. Saved places and settings stay on your device. Location is requested only when you ask for nearby sorting, used once to sort the list, and never stored or sent anywhere. WHAT THIS APP DOES NOT DO It does not certify anything, does not claim a calibrated live compass, and does not scan barcodes. Coverage is evidence-led, so it is not yet exhaustive nationwide.
