Islamic Center

Enable the module and set your channels

First is 🕌 Islamic Center Status — a single master toggle that enables or disables all Islamic services in the server. If this is off, nothing underneath will work regardless of your settings, which is the most common reason people wonder why it's "not posting".

Next are two intentionally separated channels:

📢 Athkar & Supplications Channel — where regular athkar and supplications are posted.

📿 Istighfar Counter Channel — the community counter channel, with a Send button beside it to post the counter panel directly.

Set post interval and enable Smart Publisher

⏱️ Post Interval offers preset options: Every 10 minutes · Every 30 minutes · Every 1 hour · Every 2 hours · Every 4 hours · Every 6 hours. Default is Every 1 hour.

Keep the posting paradox in mind: every 10 minutes might sound exciting, but it turns the channel into a fast-scrolling wall nobody reads, prompting members to mute it. Every 2 or 4 hours gives each message the attention it deserves.

This is where Smart Publisher (Anti-Spam) comes in — "Do not post if the channel is inactive". This means Lona won't pile up messages in an idle channel, posting only when people are actually active. Keep it enabled; it's what differentiates a lively corner from an abandoned channel full of automated clutter.

The Send Test button posts a single message immediately so you can verify the formatting and channel before leaving it running for weeks.

Select content types to post

"Select the types of content to publish randomly" — each type has its own independent toggle:

General Athkar (Tasbeeh, Istighfar) · Quranic Supplications · Common General Duas · Dua Kumayl Excerpts · Morning Dua — Imam Zain al-Abidin.

This is the most important panel on the page and the most frequently overlooked. Your server members don't all share the same background or preference, and specific content in a public channel can spark unnecessary debates. Disable what doesn't fit your audience and keep the universal items active — general types alone are more than enough for a respectable corner.

Schedule reminders at their natural times

These are separate from periodic posting — each reminder has a specific time and its own dedicated toggle:

Daily Quran Verse (Default 07:00) — "Fetched daily online".
Morning Athkar (08:00) · Evening Athkar (17:00) · Sleep Athkar (22:00) · Surah Al-Kahf Reminder (Friday) (10:00).

Default times are reasonable, but it is best to adjust them to your server's peak hours. An evening Adhkar reminder at 5:00 PM in a server that does not wake up before 9:00 PM will go unnoticed.

Enable 24/7 Quran radio

Voice channel — Select the channel where the radio plays. The first option, "-- Disable Radio --", is how you turn it off; there is no separate toggle switch.

Preferred reciter — Full list: Maher Al-Muaiqly · Yasser Al-Dosari · Abdul Rahman Al-Sudais · Saud Al-Shuraim · Mishary Alafasy · Abdul Basit Abdul Samad (Mujawwad) · Ahmed Al-Ajmi · General Quran Radio. And ⚡ changing the reciter takes effect immediately upon saving — the audio switches instantly for listeners currently in the voice channel.

The Send panel button creates a control channel in the same category as the voice channel with reciter switching, play/pause controls, and listener invites. This saves you from returning to the dashboard each time, and lets moderators switch reciters directly.

Set up the Istighfar counter

A community counter with a button and leaderboard. One of the most effective features for boosting engagement in Arabic servers — encouraging good deeds through friendly competition.

At the top of the page, you will find four live metrics to track impact: Total Istighfar, Unique participants, Today's Istighfar, and Radio status. "Unique participants" is more insightful than "Total Istighfar" — a single user can inflate the total count, whereas participants shows how many members are actually engaging with the feature.
