Nokia Ramadan-related software and services now available for download

Last year we saw Nokia (NYSE: NOK) releasing the N73 Ramadan Special Edition and people apparently dig the idea. Now the Finnish giant is going one step forward to extend its reach to Muslims who use other Nokia phones. That being said, they’ve launched the Nokia Ramadan Microsite to release an entire collection of free software and Ramadan-related services that will be downloadable globally as well as pre-loaded on a bunch of handsets in the Middle East — including the new N78 – throughout August the N70 Music Edition, E51, 3120 Classic, 6500 Slide, 6300 and 2630 will become available with the Ramadan apps pre-loaded. Plus the apps are available to download onto eight other devices including the N95 and N82.

Some of the apps you’ll be able to download include:

• Quran in Othmani font and with a multi-lingual interface and with an ability to search and bookmark any Ayah or Surah.
• Emsakya – alerts followers with times for the daily prayer, Suhour and Iftar during the Holy Month of Ramadan.
• Ramadaniat – features a large collection of useful information concerning fasting, Zakah Al-Fitr, the benefits of Laylat Al-Qadr and the I’tekaf.
• Hajj & Umrah – a mobile guide for both journeys with multimedia content in addition to the most famous places that you can visit on the way.
• Cards – allows creation of Mobile Greeting Cards and the ability to send them to family and friends via SMS or MMS.
• Mozzaker – a large collection of daily Azkar.

Finally, let’s not forget ringtones and wallpapers, which you could use to further customize your handset…
