Sabily Linux

Sabily Linux

Sabily is a free, open source operating system designed by and for Muslims. It is based on the popular Ubuntu Linux distribution which is a free, efficient and secure operating system. Unlike Microsoft Windows and other proprietary systems, Linux is publicly open and extendible by contributors.

Because Sabily is free, already includes all software you need in your everyday tasks, and is customized specifically for Muslims. And even if you didn't buy Windows, you should not use pirated copies because then you are still supporting Microsoft by adding to the impression it's the only OS available.

Sabily includes a set of packages that customizes the Ubuntu distro; Ubuntu is easy to use for a novice user, with the most-used Office, Internet, Graphics and Video applications already installed. With Sabily, Muslim users have “out of the box” Islamic software and tools installed as well. Sabily includes Islamic software (prayer times tool, Quran study tool, Hijri calendar etc.) and has a custom design. Sabily comes with out of the box educational software, codecs for the most used media formats and has better support for Arabic language.

First international meeting of Sabily administration team :)

Why not? ;)


Thursday, 22 Syawal 1389

Assalamu alaykum,

I am Abdelmonam Kouka (one of Sabily Administration team), last week I was in France for a job mission and I profited of my being there to contact brother Mehdi (the admin of Sabily project) in direct for the first time from 4 years (the date on which I have known Mehdi, just a couple of weeks after he started Sabily project).
It was a pleasure to see him and to talk to him in real world (not in virtual world as we do always), also it was a pleasure to see his family especially his very nice son "Elyess" :)
I was very busy so I stayed with them only 15 minutes ^^" we didn't discussed a lot of subjects, just the deal was around family, Tunisian revolution, my travel to France..but we didn't left the occasion without talking about Sabily :D in this subject we talked about the idea of building a foundation around Sabily project..an international organisation that support and manage Sabily project in a professional manner! we did not developed the idea because the time was very short, also it need a lot of reflexion about objectives, roadmap, and especially sponsoring! we decide to continue the discussion online :)
I am not sure..but most probably that I will have another travel to Egypt in the next few weeks insha'Allah and so I can see brother Ahmed Almahmoudi and other brothers from Egypt :) I am not sure for the moment about that..but I hope it happen insha'Allah :D

Hereafter some photos, here my photo in the "La Defence" city:

And here me with Mehdi:
