Endowments Ministry launches "Meshka" app offering 50 digital services to public

The Ministry of Endowments and Islamic Affairs in Qatar has introduced the Meshka digital services application to provide a comprehensive online platform for accessing a wide range of religious and guidance services. This user-friendly app is part of the ministry's efforts to drive digital transformation and improve its service delivery system, in line with Qatar National Vision 2030's goals of enhancing the government sector's digital capabilities.

The Meshka platform serves as a monolithic digital hub, consolidating over 50 online services across various sectors critical to the ministry's operations. These sectors include mosque services, Dawah and guidance, Hajj and Umrah, as well as Quranic contests. By integrating these services into a single, easy-to-use application, the ministry aims to streamline procedures and enhance the overall user experience.

For mosque services, the Meshka app enables users to easily find nearby mosques through interactive maps, which provide detailed information about each location, including available facilities and associated services. This feature facilitates convenient access to mosque-related resources and amenities.

In the realm of Quranic competitions, the application offers a streamlined virtual examination system, allowing students to practice and prepare for real tests in a realistic environment. This feature helps participants become more proficient and confident in their Quranic knowledge and skills.

The Meshka app also facilitates access to religious outreach and guidance services. Users can obtain religious awareness materials, connect with licensed Quranic healers, and submit religious inquiries through the platform. By centralizing these resources, the ministry strengthens its role in promoting sound religious awareness and ensuring easy access to trusted guidance services.

Furthermore, the app simplifies the registration procedures and follows up on Hajj and Umrah submissions for users. It provides relevant regulatory instructions and preventive health tips to ensure a safe and well-prepared experience for those undertaking these religious rites. Overall, the Meshka application relies on a monolithic technological structure that integrates various ministry systems, ensuring seamless data flow and timely updates.

The platform prioritizes robust personal data protection measures to bolster public confidence in its digital services.
