Block YouTube
Use Hisn app blocking for distracting video apps so YouTube is not the automatic first tap.
Block YouTube Until Quran
Read Quran before YouTube
Nafs is for Muslims who keep opening YouTube before Quran. Use Hisn to block distracting video apps, read Quran or complete another ibadah action, then return to screen time with intention.
1 minute of ibadah = 1 minute of screen time.
