The Muslim Directory initiative was founded in 2002 and sought to provide a directory of all Muslim websites in South Africa. In 2003/2004, we embarked on expanding Muslim Directory into other directories. After a period of researching other directories for best-practices and weaknesses, we developed our own web directory program. In 2009, we reworked our web directory program to integrate with social media, APIs and various web 2.0 tools. We are well positioned to offer a unique aggregation service of Muslim and Islamic content in South Africa. The directory covers the Cape Town area more extensively, purely because its volunteers are based here, though we are looking to expand to the rest of South Africa. We believe that unless communities take steps to record and document their own history, institutions and resources, they run the risk of at best under utilizing them, or at worst losing them. We are overwhelmed by the positive work many Muslim organisations are doing, without getting the recognition or financial support they deserve. Here is a platform for them to profile and market themselves and their services. We offer free profile hosting for Muslims in South Africa. This service is only offered to Muslim organisations in South Africa. It has also launched a fully interactive map showing where the various hotels and ziyaarat are located.

The meeting between the Thornton Islamic Society and Patricia de Lille for Cape Town was a successful one. The Mayor has committed to us receiving a long term lease and lived up to the philosophy of Cape Town being a Uni City. We are looking forward to a long and prosperous relationship with all residents of Thornton. The more people we make aware of our plight, the more the City is forced to take note and act. The Benoni Muslim School learner scored distinctions in English first language, Afrikaans additional home language, Arabic, mathematics, accounting, life sciences, physical science and life orientation. Gordons Bay Islamic Trust The Gordons Bay Islamic Trust (GBIT) is a trust created with the objective of serving the Islamic needs of the growing Muslim Community residing in.

Africa Muslims Agency vision is to uplift the standard of life, morality and education of the most deserving and needy in the continent of Africa.
