Where the ummah gathers, helps and builds.
Diwan is a private community app for Muslims. Ask for help and offer it, find events in your city, build projects together and keep up with your people, all in one calm place.
What happens on Diwan
Everything your community needs, in one app.
Not another feed to scroll. A place to ask, to offer, to meet up and to make things, with people you can trust.
Ask for help. Offer it.
Post a request when you need a hand: a ride, a room, a job lead, a recommendation. Or offer what you can give. Members respond in a tap.
Events in your city
Halaqas, iftars, football, family days. See what's on near you, RSVP, and share it into a chat.
Today in the Ummah
The news that matters to Muslims, from many sources in one place, with members adding why it matters.
Messages that feel like home
Chats and groups with polls, events, pins, reactions and search. Plan the iftar where the people already are.
Build things together
Start a project or join one: a weekend school, an app, a food drive. Find the people with the skills it needs.
Find professionals you can trust
Doctors, lawyers, designers, teachers. Members with professional accounts are easy to find and to contact, and you see who you know in common.
Private when you want it
Make your account private, approve who follows you, and block anyone. Your email stays yours.
Cards
Share the moment. It’s gone by tomorrow.
Cards are Diwan’s stories: a photo or a few words for the people who follow you, there for up to two days and then gone. Draw on it, add a caption, or share a post or a news story to your card.

Why it feels different
A diwan was a gathering place. We built one for today.
A space where people come to take part, not to perform. Small enough to know each other, open enough to meet someone new.
People, not an audience
Every member joins through an invitation from someone who knows them, or after our team reads their request.
No ads. Nothing to sell.
Diwan is run by a registered non-profit. We are not funded by advertising and we do not sell our members’ attention.
Adab first
Clear community guidelines rooted in Islamic adab, and reports that reach real people who act on them.
Yours to control
Private accounts, follow requests, blocking, and emails no one else can see. You decide who you share with.
How to join
Invite-only, so everyone here is someone’s someone.
That’s not gatekeeping. It’s how trust is built, and how the community stays itself as it grows.

Diwan is run by Diwan HQ ry, a registered non-profit association in Helsinki, Finland (Business ID 3591346-7). We are not funded by advertising and we do not sell our members' attention. These are the programs and services we run:
The Diwan platform

An annual hackathon in Helsinki where Muslim builders ship projects that serve the community.
Mutual aid & support
Members offer and request help (skills, time, and resources) inside a network built on trust.
Community projects
We help members turn ideas into real projects and connect them with mentors and collaborators.
Diwan Hackathon 2026 · Helsinki
Our first hackathon brought Muslim builders together for a day of making things that serve the community.
What is Diwan?
Diwan is a private community app for Muslims: a place to ask for help and offer it, find events, build projects together, read the news that matters to the ummah, and keep in touch. It works on iPhone, Android and the web.
Why is it invite-only?
Every member joins through someone who knows them, or after our team reads their request. That keeps Diwan a community of real people who can trust each other, and keeps it from becoming another place to perform for strangers.
How do I get an invitation?
Ask a friend who is already on Diwan to send you their invite link. If you don’t know anyone yet, request an invitation on this site and we’ll get back to you.
Is Diwan free?
Yes. Diwan is free, has no ads, and is run by Diwan HQ ry, a registered non-profit association in Helsinki, Finland.
Who can join?
Diwan is a community for Muslims. When you request an invitation, we ask a little about your connection to the community and that you uphold Islamic adab and our community guidelines.
