Overview
Malazmna, meaning our study booklets, is an Arabic education app for intermediate and preparatory school students in Iraq. It gathers what students hunt for all year in one place: official textbooks, teacher-written booklets, ministerial past papers, schedules, holiday dates and exam results.
Mahmoud built the Android app end to end as a freelance Flutter developer, and it was released in 2022 with a public demo video. The source is not in his archive, so this page documents only what the released app shows.
The challenge
- 01
Study material was spread across Telegram channels and websites, so finding the right file for a grade and subject took time.
- 02
A single download link is not always reachable, so students needed more than one way to get each file.
- 03
In exam season, students check the same things daily: days left until a holiday, and whether results are out.
Highlights
Study materials
- Six home sections: books, booklets, schedules, ministerial exams, timings and holidays.
- Content organised by grade, then by subject.
- Every file offers two download sources: a direct link or a Telegram mirror.
- Ministerial past papers grouped per subject, for example Arabic papers from 2011 to 2021.
Exam season tools
- Holidays screen with a live countdown in days, hours, minutes and seconds.
- Results centre with a link for each exam round, such as Third Intermediate and Sixth Primary 2022.
Experience
- Fully Arabic RTL interface with a bottom navigation bar and a side menu.
- Light and dark themes, switchable from Settings.
- Settings for dark mode, website, contact, about, rate and share.
Signature feature
From category to PDF in two taps
- The app's main job is getting the student to the right PDF fast: pick a section, then a grade, then the file.
- Direct opens the file straight from its host.
- Telegram opens the same file in the channel where it is mirrored, which helps when the direct host is slow or blocked.

Engineering notes
- 01
Two download sources per file
Each file card has a direct link and a Telegram mirror, so students use whichever source works on their network.

RTL first
All screens, cards and the drawer are built for Arabic right-to-left reading, with button rows, back arrows and icons following the direction.
- 03
Theme parity
The study flow, side menu and settings all have matching light and dark versions.
- 04
Live countdown
Each holiday card counts down to a fixed date, down to the second.
