About Ummah Media Group

Ummah Media Group is a holding company. We build and run 21 sites and services for the Muslim community. We also run the Muslim Ad Network, so advertisers can reach that same community honestly. Every server is ours. Every line of code is ours. We took no venture capital.

Our story

Ummah Media Group did not begin as an ad company.

It began with two everyday problems. Muslims needed a place to find halal work. We built UmmahJobs. Muslims needed a place to find and share Islamic media. We built what is now Ummah Library.

The Muslim Ad Network came after. We saw how much of the Muslim internet ran on infrastructure we did not own. We saw how few advertisers built specifically for Muslim audiences. The Muslim Ad Network, now MuslimReach, became the engine that funds everything else we build.

That same instinct still drives us. 21 sites and services stand today. We build what the Ummah needs, and we keep what we build.

Own it, don't rent it

A platform you rent can shut you off. It can change its rules overnight. It can sell your data to someone you never agreed to.

Ummah Media Group owns its servers, its databases, and its code, for every property we run. We call that digital sovereignty. No outside platform stands between us and the people we serve.

Muslim owned is not a slogan on this page. It is who signs the server bill, and whose decision it is what gets built next.

We do not sell user data. We host our own analytics and use no third-party analytics trackers. Paid ads on our sites are served through ad partners, and those ads carry their own measurement.

We still rent some things: the money rails our payments run on, and parts of the ad-buying and measurement stack our advertising business uses. We say so plainly, because a sovereignty claim only means something if we are honest about where it stops.

The team

Ummah Media Group runs on five people.
