Hey Product Hunt! πŸ‘‹ I'm excited to share Archives β€” an app that turns 1,400 years of Islamic history into a 5-minute daily habit. The problem: most people genuinely want to know their history, many schools don't cover Islamic history in the curriculum, and the good sources are dense academic books, and the accessible stuff on social media isn't reliable. There was no Duolingo-style middle path β€” accurate and actually enjoyable day to day. How it works: every day you get one short, carefully researched story, followed by a quick question to lock it in. It's organized chronologically across six eras β€” Rise of Islam, Umayyad, Al-Andalus, Abbasid Golden Age, Mongol invasions, and Fatimids & Mamluks β€” so you can start with zero background and build up. Streaks and progress tracking keep the habit alive. It's built by Islamic history educator Basel Gazi, and so far 60,000+ learners across 50 countries have used it. Free to start on iOS, Android, and web. I'd genuinely love your feedback on the daily format β€” what would make you keep a learning streak going? Happy to answer anything in the comments

Would love a simple spaced repetition mode built in so the stories actually stick longer term, maybe a quick recall prompt the next morning before the new story unlocks.

the daily format is honestly genius, makes it so much easier to actually keep going without feeling overwhelmed. love that each story feels properly sourced too
