OurMasjidVoice is an initiative by Purpose Partners to help mosques across the UK realise their full potential — through the honest, loving voice of their communities.
وَأَنَّ الْمَسَاجِدَ لِلَّهِ
“The mosques are for Allah.” — Quran 72:18
Mosques are one of the most powerful institutions in Muslim community life. At their best, they are centres of worship, learning, welfare, and belonging — just as the Prophet's ﷺ mosque in Madinah was. A place where the sick were visited, the lonely were welcomed, the young were mentored, and no one fell through the cracks.
But many mosques today operate in a way that is disconnected from this prophetic vision. Not through bad intentions — but because they lack the tools, feedback, and community voice to know where they are and where they could be.
OurMasjidVoice is that tool. A simple, beautiful, community-powered platform that lets anyone share their honest experience — and helps mosques understand what their community truly needs.
We're not here to shame or expose mosques. We're here to celebrate what's working and lovingly surface what could be better. The platform leads with strengths.
Every survey dimension is grounded in the Quran, Sunnah, and Islamic scholarly tradition. We inspire the community by framing questions around sacred ideals.
No one individual or organisation decides what a good mosque looks like. The data is built by hundreds of community voices, making it both democratic and diverse.
All submissions are fully anonymous. No personal data is stored. We want people to be honest without fear — that's how the data stays clean.
Scores are framed as potential, not failure. Low scores become invitations to grow, not sources of shame. The language of the platform is always hopeful.
Muslim or non-Muslim, daily worshipper or curious neighbour — everyone's voice is valid. The mosque serves the whole community, and the whole community can speak.
The MYMASJIDVOICE V3 model evaluates how holistically a masjid fulfills its sacred purpose through two main pillars: Purpose and Stewardship, driven by authentic User Voice and equity-focused demographic insight (D1–D7).
Why is the MYMASJIDVOICE V3 survey designed the way it is? Every category, question wording, and demographic field is grounded in sacred concepts, psychometric validity, and practical utility.
The 8 categories map directly to sacred Prophetic principles and the holistic functions of the Prophetic Mosque in Madinah:
In V3, all statements were refined to ensure single-focus observability. For example, physical disability access (7.9) was separated from general clean facilities (7.7), and women's participation/influence (5.7) was separated from comfortable facility access (5.8). Category intros feature authentic Hadith context to ground respondents in the sacred standard.
Demographic questions (D1–D7) exist to protect equity and data integrity:
N/A Denominator Exclusion: Showing “Not applicable / Don't know” on every statement prevents false midpoints and removes unexperienced items from score denominators.
Open Voice (V1–V3): V1 protects existing strengths. V2 asks “why it matters” to surface underlying human needs rather than superficial complaints. V3 asks for a practical 12-month change — introducing shared responsibility and actionable horizons for mosque leadership.
Every submission updates the public scorecard for that mosque. As more voices are added, the picture becomes richer, more representative, and more powerful. Over time, this dataset will:
