Allah's Apostle said, "The prayer in congregation is twenty seven times superior to the prayer offered by person alone." Volume 1, Book 11, Number 618:

There is a need for an application for mobile devices and computers, which will provide a user, the correct location of nearby Mosques / Masjids and actual times for Salat in these Mosques / Masjids, at any geographic location. The key concept here is ‘Actual’ Salat / Jammat / Congregation times with ‘Computed’ Salat times.

There are many applications available (for Muslims) that provide the location of nearby Mosques / Masjids, and also provide the generic or computed Salat times for that geographical location, the problem is that these computed Salat times are not the actual times when Salat / Jammat / Congregation is performed in these Mosques / Masjids.

Due to the fact that there are millions of Mosques / Masjids in the world, it is not possible to maintain and update a database, with correct and actual Salat / Jammat / Congregation times by a few individuals. FaceKaaba application can provide a solution for the issues discussed above, by taking advantage of the social networking.

By adding this social networking aspect, we will create a community where users will maintain the database of this application, update the Salat / Jammat / Congregation times of their neighborhood Mosques / Masjids as they change, thus allowing all users to locate a mosque nearby and find out the actual Salat / Jammat / Congregation times rather than the computed Salat times.
