Our Mission: The Most Accurate Mosque Directory in the UK (and Beyond)
What if finding a mosque was as easy as finding your favourite coffee shop? What if every Muslim—whether new to the area, travelling, or just out for the day—could instantly discover the nearest place to pray, connect, and belong? That's the vision behind Muslimnet UK.
Why We Started: A Real Need
It all began with a simple frustration: too many Muslims missing prayers, events, or community gatherings because they couldn't find up-to-date mosque information. Maybe you've been there—driving in circles, asking strangers, or scrolling through outdated websites. We knew there had to be a better way.
Why Accuracy Matters (and How It Changes Lives)
- Trust: Muslims rely on our directory to find places to pray, attend events, and connect with the community. Outdated or incorrect information can mean missed prayers or lost opportunities. Imagine a new student in London, searching for Jumu'ah, only to find the mosque listed online has moved. That's a missed connection—and a missed prayer.
- Community: A reliable directory strengthens our ummah, making it easier for everyone to find support, services, and a sense of belonging. It's not just about bricks and mortar; it's about people, stories, and shared faith.
- Growth: As our community grows and changes, so do our mosques. Keeping data current helps new arrivals, travellers, and locals alike. It means a family moving to Birmingham can settle in faster, or a traveller in Edinburgh can find Taraweeh with ease.
How We Achieve This (And How You Can Help)
- Community Contributions: Anyone can add or update mosque information. The more people contribute, the more accurate and complete our directory becomes. If you spot a mistake or know of a new mosque, you can fix it in minutes.
- Continuous Updates: We encourage regular updates—if you notice something out of date, please update it! Our platform is designed to make this easy, so the information stays fresh.
- Future Vision: Today, we focus on the UK. Tomorrow, we hope to serve Muslims everywhere, making it easy to find a mosque no matter where you are in the world. Imagine a global network where every Muslim, from London to Lagos, can find a place to pray.
The Impact: Stories from the Community
- A student in Manchester: "I moved here for university and didn't know anyone. Muslimnet UK helped me find a mosque for Jumu'ah, and now I've made friends for life."
- A family on holiday: "We were in Cornwall and thought we'd have to miss prayers. Thanks to the directory, we found a small mosque we never would have known about."
- A new revert: "I was nervous about going to a mosque for the first time. The detailed info and photos made it less intimidating."

Looking Ahead: The Global Vision
We dream big. One day, we want every Muslim, anywhere in the world, to be able to find a mosque with a single click. Whether you're in the heart of London or a remote village, you'll always know where to go.
Together, we can create the most trusted and useful mosque directory—starting in the UK, and reaching the world. Your contribution—big or small—moves us closer to that goal.
