Why MU exists

Muslim communities deserve a digital home they can shape

Our communities live on apps that were built, run and monetised elsewhere. Organisers meet closed doors, feeds follow rules nobody chose, and what a mosque, a pesantren or a campus needs every day is an afterthought. MU is built for the whole ummah, with you in control.

Closed doors for organisers
In Indonesia, for example, GoFundMe, Kickstarter and Indiegogo do not accept organisers based in the country, and Stripe is available by invitation only. These are the platforms' own country and payment rules.^1,2,3,4
Little say over your feed
On the large social networks you get only limited control over what shows up in your feed, from whom, and how often. In MU you set it yourself.
Automated moderation that gets it wrong
Independent research found that automated moderation on Facebook and Instagram restricted Arabic-language and Palestine-related content in error more often than other content.^5,6,7
Institutional needs left out
General apps are not built for what an institution needs every day: activities planned around local prayer times, halal labels checked against a valid certificate, giving with a visible licence, and answers with sources.

MU starts in Indonesia, home to about 240 million Muslims, around 12% of the world's Muslims, and is built for every Muslim community.²¹

You are in control

Your feed, your rules

In MU you decide who you see, what you see, how often, and how it looks. Advanced controls, made simple.

Who
Hide a post, mute an author, restrict a person, and follow only the communities you choose.
What
Sensitive media can be hidden, shown behind a warning, or shown. You choose which.
How often
Per community: announcements only, everything, a digest, or off. Night quiet hours, a pause during prayer times, and an e-mail digest.
How it looks
Light or dark theme, three text sizes, high contrast, reduced motion, Mudah mode (larger text, bigger buttons, simpler screens) and a photo-grid mode.

Also in MU

Topic filtersChoose which subjects you do not want to see.
SnoozePause a community or a person for a while.

Light and dark theme, text size, Mudah mode, hide and mute, restrict, sensitive-media settings, a photo-grid mode and per-community notification levels exist in the beta today.

Try the look

A small example in the look of the app, not real data. Switch the theme, the text size and the feed mode.

Example

One app for everything

One platform for what a community needs

Communities, events, a halal marketplace, learning, startup fundraising and our own messenger, in one account. All of it is part of the app.

Verified people and institutions
Four visible trust badges, from a confirmed member to a verified identity (see below). Scholar credentials are checked by two admins, and identity is always decided by a person, never by a machine.
- Fewer scams
- Know who you are talking to
- Safer deals
Halal at every step
The "Verified halal" badge only appears for a BPJPH (or older MUI) certificate that a moderator has checked by hand in SIHALAL and that is still valid. Prohibited items such as pork, alcohol, tobacco/vapes and gambling are refused, communities have adab rules, and events respect prayer times.⁸
- Buy with confidence
- Sellers can prove it
- Certificates checked by people
Community and announcements
Every mosque, pesantren or study circle has its own hub. Organisers' announcements reach all members, can be pinned, and can be shared to other chat apps with one tap. MU does not read your contacts.
Events that respect prayer times
Times use local prayer-time data: Indonesia today (514 regencies and cities), with more Islamic countries being added so the worldwide community benefits too. Hosts are warned when an event clashes with a prayer time or Friday prayer, and reminders never arrive during quiet hours or a prayer pause.
A marketplace that holds the money safely
In Indonesia: QRIS, e-wallets and virtual accounts, with local payment methods for each new country next. MU holds the money until the buyer confirms the order arrived, and cash on delivery comes with fair safeguards.
Six MU AI agents, each with one clear job
Six AI agents are built and now in training with students, scholars and experts: Ahmed, Fatima, Hakim (AI Scholar), Yusuf (business developer), Aisha (content creator) and Bilal (publisher). All work from sources and input that MU controls, are always labelled as AI, and give no religious rulings. See the agents section for what each one does and how far along it is.

See how it works

Trust you can see

Four ways to know who you are dealing with

MU does not make you guess. People and institutions earn visible trust badges. A person always makes the final call on identity, never a machine.

Confirmed member
Your e-mail or phone and your name are confirmed. You can follow, join communities and read.
Complete profile
A photo, a short bio and two-step sign-in. You can post publicly, join events and buy.
Vouched for by an institution
A mosque, pesantren or campus confirms you as a member, or a scholar credential is checked by two admins.
Verified identity
An ID document checked by a person at MU. Needed to sell on the marketplace.

Each badge is its own check, not a strict ladder. Visitors can browse public pages without an account.

MU AI agents

Six AI agents, each with one clear job

MU does not rely on one assistant that does everything. It has six agents, each with a name, a clear job and clear limits. They are built, and in the coming period students, scholars and other stakeholders, such as institutions and experts, train them. All of them work from sources and input that MU controls, and none of them gives a religious ruling.

You are always talking to an AI, never to a person. Every agent says so in each conversation and on everything it creates.

Ahmed
For men, general questions
AI agentIn training
A calm companion for everyday questions about life, community and the MU app.
What it can do
- Finds mosques, study circles and communities near you, explains the trust badges and helps you join
- Explains an event, handles your RSVP and warns you when it clashes with a prayer time or Friday prayer
- Sets up your feed: hide, mute or restrict, notification levels, quiet hours, light or dark theme, Mudah mode
- Explains the halal marketplace: what a halal badge means, how the money is held until your order arrives, how to follow an order
- Helps with MU Chat and My space: privacy settings, who sees what
- Answers other everyday questions in Bahasa Indonesia, English and Arabic, pointing to sources instead of guessing
What it will never do
- Give a fatwa or any religious ruling
- Pretend to be a person
- Read your private messages
Your data. It only sees what you type to it. Your private chats are never shared with it.
Fatima
For women, general questions
AI agentIn training
The same everyday help, in a space made for women.
What it can do
- Everything Ahmed does for the MU app (communities, events and RSVP, feed controls, marketplace, MU Chat), in a women-only space
- Sensitive questions stay private to you and are never shown to community admins
- Finds women-only communities, classes and events near you
- Routes a question to a female scholar when you prefer, only with your consent
- Helps with My space and the privacy centre: who sees your profile, hiding, muting and restricting
- Answers other everyday questions in Bahasa Indonesia, English and Arabic, pointing to sources instead of guessing
What it will never do
- Give a fatwa or any religious ruling
- Pretend to be a person
- Share your conversation with community admins
Your data. It only sees what you type to it. Your private chats are never shared with it.
Hakim
AI Scholar
AI agentIn training
Sourced answers on Islamic knowledge, with the differences between schools made visible.
What it can do
- Answers from material reviewed by scholars of the different Islamic schools of thought (madhhabs and traditions)
- Always cites the source it used, or says plainly "no source cited"; Quran references open as reference cards, as in Cari MU
- Shows where the schools differ side by side, without choosing one for you
- Explains terms, background and history, and links to classes and university research in MU Knowledge
- Offers private contact with a human scholar when a question needs a ruling
- Says when it is unsure instead of guessing
What it will never do
- Issue a fatwa itself
- Write Arabic scripture from memory: quotations come only from verified sources
- Pass your question to a scholar without your consent
Your data. A question goes to a scholar only if you say yes. Private messages never reach the agent.
Yusuf
Business developer
AI agentIn training
A first draft of a sharia-compliant, SDG-aligned business plan, with every claim sourced.
What it can do
- Drafts a business plan: problem, customers, market, model and finances
- Checks it against sharia principles (no interest, no excessive uncertainty, no prohibited sectors) and flags points for a sharia advisor to confirm
- Maps your activities to the UN Sustainable Development Goals and suggests indicators
- Draws on public annual reports of UN Global Compact members, university research and theses, market research and other reliable sources, all cited
- Turns the plan into a startup profile in MU and explains the rules for a fundraising campaign: legal and finance review first, and always a donation, not an investment
- Shows the source and assumption behind every number
What it will never do
- Promise returns or give investment advice
- Declare a plan "certified sharia-compliant": a human sharia board does that
- Invent sources or figures
Your data. Your ideas stay in your account. Only public and licensed sources are used as input.
Aisha
Content creator
AI agentIn training
Posts, captions, short-video scripts and visuals in your own voice, checked for halal.
What it can do
- Writes community announcements, event pages and product descriptions for your MU shop, in your voice
- Writes posts, captions and hashtags for social media, and drafts short-video scripts and storyboards
- Suggests visuals and layouts in your colours, and hands nasheed and music requests to MU Studio
- Learns your or your institution's voice from examples you give it
- Checks content against halal advertising rules: no prohibited products, imagery or music
- Writes in Bahasa Indonesia, English and Arabic
What it will never do
- Publish by itself: you approve everything
- Create fake people or fake testimonials
- Make claims it cannot back up, such as health or income promises
Your data. The examples you give stay in your account. Generated visuals are labelled as AI.
Bilal
Publisher
AI agentIn training
Publish once to Instagram, YouTube and Facebook, through their official APIs.
What it can do
- Publishes to Instagram, YouTube and Facebook from one place, through their official APIs
- Schedules posts and cross-posts in the format and length each platform needs
- Takes your MU announcements, events and shop items and shares them outward
- One analytics view across the three platforms
- YouTube: suggests ad-break placement for your videos
- YouTube income: helps block non-halal ad categories in your AdSense and YouTube settings, and matches halal brands for direct sponsorships
What it will never do
- Post without your approval
- Buy or fake engagement such as views, likes or followers
- Promise "the highest income": YouTube decides which ads appear, and creators cannot pick single ads
Your data. You connect each account through the platform's own sign-in and can disconnect at any time. MU keeps only the permissions it needs.

MU Chat

Our own messenger, built for communities and privacy

A community platform should not depend on a messenger it does not control, and some countries restrict WhatsApp calls. MU Chat is our own answer: private conversations, announcement channels and community cards, run on our own infrastructure. Reaching people through WhatsApp means paying for marketing and depending on another company's platform; with MU we reach our own community directly.¹⁸

Halal-only adverts, no outside trackers
Adverts, where shown, come only from halal businesses, services and products. No outside tracking tools, no data brokers, and your private messages are never used for ads.
No phone number needed
Sign in with your MU account or a passkey.
Announcement channels
Organisers publish, listeners read. Channels follow community roles.
Part of your community
Events and community cards from MU can be shared straight into a conversation.
Direct access, not rented reach
Organisers reach their own community directly, without paying a messaging giant for every message. Through partner institutions the potential reach is millions of people (potential, not current users).
AI only if you choose
No AI reads your private messages. The assistant would only see messages you select yourself, with an expiry.

MU Chat is in pilot and not public yet. Its end-to-end encryption is being built on an open standard and is not switched on yet. We will not call MU Chat end-to-end encrypted before it is live and independently reviewed.
