Google Maps - The 'M' Locator project
BETA Release

An experimental project to map each masjid, Qutbah, Roza and place of intrest to mumineen on the world map. This project will be a replacement to the Jamaat directory and will visually pin point the location of each place of intrest on Google Maps. The system will link to content from the site, example akhbar related to that place or masjid.

This project is in an experimental stage and will require the contribution of muminen to pin point the exact location. Hence is will not be included in this release, only a demo of it is what is running online.
