Salaam, friends!

Let’s talk about something we all know too well; trying to find events that matter to us. Whether it’s a halaqah, a community iftar, or a Muslim business conference, it can feel like searching for a needle in a haystack, right?

Well, that’s exactly why we created Qariyb.

The Problem we’re solving

Right now, finding Muslim events is a bit all over the place. You’ve got WhatsApp groups, Mosque bulletin boards, and random social media posts. Sure, these work sometimes, but they’re not exactly scalable—or inclusive. If you’re not already “in the know,” you might miss out on something amazing.

And for event organizers? It’s even tougher. Reaching the right audience takes so much effort, and even then, important events can get lost in the shuffle.

How Qariyb makes life easier

We built Qariyb to be the go-to platform for Muslim events. Here’s how we’re making event discovery a breeze:

  • One-Stop Shop: No more hopping between apps or groups. Qariyb brings all kinds of events—religious, educational, social—into one place.
  • Smart Search: Our platform helps you find events based on your location and interests. Looking for a family-friendly event nearby? We’ve got you covered.
  • Organizer-Friendly Tools: We’ve made it super easy for organizers to list and promote their events. Whether it’s a fundraiser or a lecture series, Qariyb helps get the word out.
  • Community First: We designed Qariyb with the Muslim community in mind, so it’s a safe, respectful, and enriching space for everyone.

What’s next?

We’re just getting started! Here’s a sneak peek at what’s coming:

  • Personalized Recommendations: Imagine getting event suggestions tailored just for you. 
  • Pro Features for Organizers: Soon, organizers will have access to tools like analytics dashboards and expanded promotion options.
  • Global Reach: We’re starting with key cities, but our goal is to connect Muslim communities worldwide.

Alhamdulilah, we’re so excited to have you on this journey with us. Stay tuned for more updates—InshaAllah, we’re just getting started!
