The story behind MasjidGo
MasjidGo began with a problem every Muslim traveller in India knows. You arrive in an unfamiliar city, Asr is close, and you have no idea where the nearest masjid is. The apps that existed asked each masjid to sign up and enter its own details, which meant most masjids were simply invisible.
So we started from the other end. More than 41,000 masjids were mapped into the app from OpenStreetMap before a single user opened it. No sign-up, no waiting for anyone to claim a listing — install the app and the masjids around you are already there. Masjid committees can then come in through the Imam portal and correct their own jamaat timings, facilities and contact details.
Everything else grew around that. The Quran, the duas and adhkar, ruqyah, the Hajj and Umrah guide, the Hijri calendar, the Qibla compass — the things a Muslim reaches for through an ordinary day, in one app, on the kind of phone most people actually carry.
إِذَا مَاتَ الإِنْسَانُ انْقَطَعَ عَنْهُ عَمَلُهُ إِلَّا مِنْ ثَلَاثَةٍ
When a person dies, their deeds end except for three — and ongoing charity is the first of them. Sahih Muslim 1631
MasjidGo is built as sadaqah jariyah. It is free forever, with no advertisements, no subscriptions, and nothing about you sold to anyone. When you add a masjid that helps a traveller find jamaat years from now, that reward is yours too.
