About
OpenMasjid started because one masjid couldn't find a website it could trust, afford, and run with volunteers. The platform we built for them is now available to every masjid that needs the same thing.
Why this exists
A masjid we know needed to leave WordPress after their old site was compromised. We couldn't find a single platform that was secure, modern, and built around how masajid actually run. So we built one — and made it available to every other masjid in the same situation.
Why open-source
If we ever stop being good for your masjid, you should be able to leave with your data and the same code. Open-sourcing it was the only choice that made sense.
Why one template
They need a credible, fast, accessible site that reflects their masjid's identity. One opinionated template + per-masjid skin gets 95% of the way to “designed by a real designer,” at 0% of the cost.
Who's behind it
We attend masjid like you do. We are not VC-funded. We are not "scaling at all costs." We are trying to build something useful that lasts.
