Mosque Tech Challenge 2024 - 24 Hr Hackathon in a Mosque
Innamal a'malu binniyat - “Actions are dependent upon their Intentions”
Ideas form from all places, why not we nurture ideas from the most pure and sacred place of our community, that is the Mosque.
Mosque Tech Challenge is a 24hr+ Hackathon Competition that aims to provide a platform to seek, implement and share the best and coolest ideas using technology towards the benefit of the community.
This is the 7th year we are running this event, with the intention of nurturing ideas from within the Mosque, developing skills and knowledge through learning workshops, and enabling the teams to prototype technological solutions towards the benefit of the community and beyond.
