History and Development

Origins as Ubuntu Muslim Edition

Sabily originated as Ubuntu Muslim Edition (UbuntuME), a customized variant of the Linux distribution launched in 2007 by a team of developers focused on tailoring the operating system for Muslim users. The project aimed to integrate Islamic-specific software and enhancements directly into the base system, providing immediate accessibility without requiring manual installations. This initiative was driven by the need to overcome limitations in the standard distribution, particularly the absence of built-in tools for language support and Islamic practices, which were essential for users in regions with significant Muslim populations. The primary motivations behind Ubuntu Muslim Edition stemmed from community feedback highlighting the demand for a more inclusive environment that supported religious and cultural needs, such as time notifications and study applications, alongside improved localization. Developers sought to create a non-intrusive overlay on 's core, ensuring compatibility while adding value for users who faced barriers in accessing region-specific resources. By basing the edition on 's stable foundation, the team emphasized ease of use and reliability, appealing to both novice and experienced users within the Muslim . In , the project underwent a significant rebranding to Sabily, primarily to resolve potential issues associated with the "" name, with the first release under this new moniker being version 9.04 based on Ubuntu's Jaunty Jackalope. The name "Sabily" derives from an term rooted in a Qur'anic verse, translating to "" or "path," symbolizing a guided and accessible pathway for Muslim users in their digital interactions. This shift marked a maturation of the project, solidifying its identity as an independent derivative while maintaining its Ubuntu heritage. Early development of Sabily was predominantly community-driven, hosted on the Launchpad platform where contributors collaborated on integrating Islamic tools and customizations, such as themed wallpapers and login screens, without altering Ubuntu's fundamental architecture. Led by figures like Mehdi Magnon, the team prioritized open-source contributions to ensure the distribution remained adaptable and aligned with evolving user requirements. This collaborative approach fostered a sense of ownership among participants, laying the groundwork for subsequent enhancements.

Editions and Versions

Available Editions

Sabily offered three primary download editions tailored to different user needs, all derived from the same core but differentiated by the scope of pre-installed packages. For example, in version 10.10, the Small edition measured 967.96 MB and provided a basic setup focused on core Islamic applications, artwork, and language support, making it suitable for lightweight installations on older hardware. The Full edition, at 1.55 GB, expanded on the Small edition by incorporating additional and educational packages, ideal for general and . The Ultimate edition, sized at 3.3 GB, included the contents of the Full edition plus extensive offline Islamic resources such as Qur'an recitations, supporting comprehensive religious study without requiring an connection. Each edition was distributed as ISO images compatible with Live DVD modes, allowing users to the system before committing to a full installation.

Key Version Differences

Sabily's early versions, released as Ubuntu Muslim Edition from 7.04 (2007) to 8.04 (2008), emphasized foundational integrations for language support and essential Islamic tools, including prayer time calculators like , Quran recitation audio files, and basic web filtering via WebStrict, all pre-installed on a GNOME-based desktop with a secondary CD for additional packages such as and fonts. The transition to the Sabily branding began with version 9.04 (), codenamed "Taibah," which introduced a complete retheming with new artwork, wallpapers, and a customized interface to reflect Islamic aesthetics, while expanding the software structure to include Zekr as a dedicated study tool and enabling WebStrict by default for safer browsing; this version also marked the shift to themed codenames inspired by Islamic landmarks, alongside the availability of small (under 1 GB) and full editions for broader accessibility. Version 9.10 (2009) built on this by restructuring the Islamic software suite for better organization, redeveloping the Monajat prayer reminder application in Python for enhanced functionality, and improving prayer tools with add-ons for automated notifications, while maintaining the GNOME desktop and adding minor refinements to Arabic input methods. In 10.04 (), Sabily enhanced multimedia Islamic features, particularly by integrating audio playback capabilities into Zekr for Quran recitations from multiple reciters, alongside new Arabic fonts for improved typography, social media integrations (e.g., and ), and a refreshed theme aligning with Ubuntu's window button relocation; this release remained 32-bit only but increased package sizes in the full edition to accommodate expanded utilities like AlMoazin for advanced prayer scheduling. Subsequent versions 10.10 (2010) introduced 64-bit support alongside the existing 32-bit, allowing compatibility with modern hardware while preserving core Islamic applications, and version 11.04 (2011) previewed Unity integration by including Unity 2D on the DVD edition with Classic as default, featuring updated GDM themes, new wallpapers, and refined multilingual support for non-Arabic users.

Installation and System Requirements

Sabily's standard installation uses the Ubiquity graphical installer derived from , supporting both graphical and text modes for user-friendly setup from a bootable Live DVD without prior partitioning or formatting risks. For users on , Vista, or 7, the separate Wisabi tool, based on Wubi, allows installation alongside the existing operating system directly from within Windows. The installation process follows the standard procedure: boot from the Sabily Live DVD to test the distribution in live mode, select language and keyboard layout (with prioritized as the default due to the distribution's focus), configure partitioning (automatic or manual), copy files, and set up the . Post-installation includes user account creation. As an Arabic-focused distribution, it provides seamless support for input and right-to-left (RTL) text handling, along with Islamic-specific features like Hijri calendar integration. As an derivative, Sabily maintains compatibility with standard Ubuntu installation media and processes. Its system requirements align closely with those of Ubuntu 11.10, the base for its final release: a minimum of 384 MB RAM and 4.5 GB disk space on x86 or compatible CPUs, though 1 GB RAM is recommended for optimal performance and to accommodate pre-installed Islamic applications without lag. As Sabily is discontinued, official installation media are archived and not recommended for new installations due to lack of updates as of 2025. These specifications ensure on modest hardware typical of the era, while supporting DVD or USB media for the installation.

Desktop Environments

Sabily primarily utilized desktop environment as its default graphical interface in early versions, aligning with its base to provide a familiar and customizable experience for users. This choice emphasized ease of use and integration with Islamic software, allowing seamless access to features like prayer time reminders directly within the desktop shell. Starting with Sabily 11.04, based on 11.04 (Natty Narwhal), the distribution introduced support for the desktop environment, though it retained Ubuntu Classic—essentially 2—as the default to maintain stability for its target audience. Unity and its 2D variant were available as options, enabling users to opt into the more modern, launcher-focused interface if desired. Subsequent releases, such as Sabily 11.10, transitioned to with as the default shell, incorporating enhancements like improved theming and shell extensions tailored for cultural relevance. Optional desktop environments included Plasma and , installable via standard package management to accommodate diverse user preferences and hardware capabilities. offered extensive customization for power users, while provided a lighter alternative, consuming fewer resources—typically under 300 MB of RAM at idle—making it suitable for older systems prevalent in regions like the . Desktop customizations in Sabily featured Islamic-themed elements, such as Al-Badr wallpapers depicting crescents and mosques, along with modified icons and panels that integrated notifications via extensions like the Sabily Date Time add-on. Plymouth boot splash and GDM login themes were also updated with green-and-white motifs inspired by , enhancing cultural immersion without altering core functionality. These optimizations ensured responsive performance on low-end hardware, with editions prioritizing minimalism to support systems with as little as 512 MB of RAM.

Localization and Support

Arabic Language Integration

Sabily provided comprehensive Arabic integration by pre-installing Ubuntu's full Arabic localization packages, enabling users to set Arabic as the primary during installation or post-setup without additional configuration. This included complete translation of the Ubuntu interface elements, such as menus, dialogs, control panels, and notifications, ensuring an immersive experience for Arabic-speaking users. For text rendering, Sabily incorporated specialized fonts like Amiri, a Naskh-style optimized for in books and digital interfaces, along with other Unicode-compliant options such as DejaVu Sans. These fonts supported processing and complex script shaping, handled by the library integrated into Ubuntu's , which correctly rendered connected Arabic letters, diacritics, and mixed Latin-Arabic content. Input methods in Sabily were facilitated through the pre-configured IBus framework, which included standard Arabic keyboard layouts such as and for efficient typing of Arabic script. Users could switch between and other layouts seamlessly via keyboard shortcuts like Super+Space or the system tray indicator, providing fluid multilingual input without manual installation. Additionally, Sabily equipped productivity applications with built-in Arabic dictionaries and spell-checkers, drawn from Ubuntu's language support packages, to aid in writing and editing tasks in applications like and web browsers.
