Wirid is a good practice for Muslims as it can bring them closer to their Creator that is Allah SWT and in forming them to become good leaders or caliphs in the future.

This after prayer wirid is embedded in mobile environment with the integration of multimedia elements as a medium to attract and encourage Muslims to recite and memorize a wirid. This i-Wirid application has been developed using Eclipse as the main platform and has undergone two testing phases which are User Acceptance Test and Heuristic Evaluation in order to assess the application. The Heuristic Test was done by the experts and the User Acceptance Test was implemented on 70 respondents. Based on the results collected, there is about 93 percent of respondents who are satisfied with the application and 97 percent agreed that the application is interesting to be used in their daily lives.
