Qurba is a free iPhone app that puts masjids and Muslim-owned businesses of every kind on one map. The directory is built by its users: anyone can add a place, a person reviews it, and neighbors vouch for it. Qurba was started by Palestinian Muslims in the United States to help Muslim communities find and support each other. https://www.qurba.us
