Is Qurba a halal food app?: No. Qurba is a directory of masjids and Muslim-owned businesses of every kind. Food is one of nine categories. The community can vote on halal status for food places, but that is one detail on a listing, not the point of the app.
What counts as a Muslim-owned business?: Any public-facing business with a Muslim owner, in any industry. Serving Muslim customers isn't enough; the owner has to be Muslim. Masjids and Islamic centers have their own category.
Who adds the places?: The community. Anyone with an account can add a place in about two minutes, and a person reviews every submission before it's published.
How can I help?: Add the places you know, vouch for businesses you know are Muslim-owned, write honest reviews, and tell your community about Qurba.
Is it free? Are there ads?: Qurba is free. We don't track you across apps, we don't sell data, and nobody can pay to rank higher. If sponsored spots ever appear, they will be clearly labeled.
Which cities are covered?: The United States and Canada, growing city by city as people add places. If your city looks empty, you're early, and adding the first places helps the most.
Is Qurba on Android?: Not yet. Qurba is on iPhone (iOS 17 or later). Android is planned.
I own a business. How do I get listed?: Add it in the app like any other place. Listing is free. Tools for owners, like claiming a listing and replying to reviews, are coming soon.
Who is behind Qurba?: Qurba was started by Palestinian Muslims in the United States. It is independent and not affiliated with any masjid, certifier or organization.
