Tried best to cover most scenarios. Kindly upvote if this helped

1.) Language
- There are multiple community with different types of language being written and spoken in different way.
- In case of Muslim community, there can be different type of students using different languages such as English OR Arabic  OR Urdu.
- As we know that English is read from left-to-right while Arabic is read from right-to-left (RTL).
- Thus, our interface should not be ditorted while switching between those languages as for this section of the society, there exists an importance of these two languages.


2.) Names
- In case of Muslim community, we know that the first name or last name are generally common across multiple people.
- Storing the contacts might not be a problem, but for the ease of usage of the device, the interface should be added with an advanced voice support for contacts searching.
- Either, we can have an advanced voice search for contacts OR our interface can have alias corresponding to each name stored in contact book for easier and smooth user experience.

3) Religious Faith
- The muslim community believes in offering holy prayers called Namaz which requires them undivided attention during the prayer period.
- The mobile interface must have an inbuilt design to set reminder for the prayer timings along with making the device in Do Not Disturb Mode.
- This will provide an extra feature for this set of community and interface is all about user experience and we need to make that better.
