How Hikma Came To Be
Hikma is the product of one person's desire to receive guidance on life's daily struggles but through the lens of Islam.
"I had many things on my mind that couldn't simply be resolved by asking a question, I needed a conversation. In today's world, sadly that is just so challenging. Then, life got real tough for me, all the systems in place offered support but not a single one suggested to use my faith as a source of healing, but in my time of need it's the only thing that made me feel better. I needed more though, to understand why life's challenges were hitting me so hard, so I created Hikma, a place where I could go and talk, feel understood, receive guidance and make sense of my specific issues based on my faith. I hope Hikma can help you find some peace, as it does for me."
How Hikma Remains Free
For now, Hikma will only rely upon the generous donations of its users. As the site grows, if there is interest, premium features will be added at a small cost to keep Hikma free. We believe that everyone should have access to the wisdom of Islam, and we are committed to making it available to everyone. More information about this can be found on our Support Hikma page.
How Hikma Can Help You
Hikma is here whenever you need a quiet moment of reflection, guidance, or clarity — grounded in the wisdom of Islam. You can turn to Hikma for:
- Spiritual support during tough times
- Gentle reminders rooted in the Qur'an and Sunnah
- Help understanding the basics of Islam — like prayer, wudu, fasting, or belief
- Reflections on doubt, guilt, sadness, anxiety, or loneliness

- Emotional comfort when you just need someone to "listen"
- Deep questions about purpose, identity, or what really matters
Whether you're just beginning your journey or have been walking this path for years, Hikma offers a private, non-judgemental space to reconnect — and keep going.
How Accurate is Hikma
Hikma is trained to rely upon the Quran, Authentic Hadith and Classical Scholarly opinion. The model is not perfect and we are working on issues relating to Hadiths. Please do contact us if you identify any other issues.
