Who builds Warsh.

Warsh is one person. We would rather tell you that plainly than list a page of invented colleagues.

Umar Bin Akbar Ali

Founder & CEO

Umar founded Warsh and builds it: the curriculum structure, the app, the backend, and the tooling the lessons are written in. He is based in Karachi.

What that means for the Arabic

A one-person company should be honest about the limits that come with it. Warsh does not claim a faculty, and it does not present its founder as a scholar of Arabic or of the Quran.

What it does instead is keep its scope narrow and its claims checkable: the course teaches the Arabic itself, Ustaad Noor refers every question of fiqh to a qualified scholar rather than answering it, and Warsh awards no certification of any kind. How lessons are written, and what happens when someone reports an error, is set out in the editorial guidelines.

If you find a mistake in an Arabic word, a harakat, or a translation, it reaches the person who can fix it. Write to support@warsh.app — or see the contact page for the rest.
