In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful.
These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you ("User" or "Customer") and Abdullah bin Amir Trading SPC, trading as Badal Technologies ("Provider", "we", "us"), a company registered in the Sultanate of Oman.
By accessing or using the Iqra AI platform (including app.iqra.bot, the API, and associated services), you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

3. Usage & Billing
