What Masjidal Does Well

Masjidal picked a focused lane and executes well in it. If your need is prayer times in members' homes, on a clock on the wall, it is a strong choice.

The Athan Frame syncs masjid-specific prayer times, athan, daily hadith, and duas into members' homes. A focused product that does its one job well.

Al-Iqamah gives masjids a remotely managed bulletin board that adjusts automatically for daily prayers and daylight savings.

Clock, app, display, donations, and website integration all run off the same masjid prayer schedule, so updates happen once.

  • Prayer-time hardware people love
  • Clean digital displays
  • A connected ecosystem

Switching Is Smaller Than It Sounds

Ummah vs Masjidal, Side by Side

The two overlap on in-masjid displays and donations, and the table shows where they part. Masjidal sells prayer-time hardware for homes and masjids. Ummah runs its TV displays and kiosk on the TVs and tablet you already own, and adds the community software around them.

Masjidal details verified from its published pages on June 10, 2026 (see sources below). "Not published" means we could not verify it from their public pages; it may exist. Pricing and features change, so confirm current details on their site.

Where Ummah Is Different

Ummah bundles the whole job into one published price. Advanced is $75 a month billed annually and includes TV displays and the Ummah Kiosk on the TVs and tablet your masjid already owns, events with ticketing and check-in, members, donations at 0% platform fee, vendor booth maps and a website we design and build. Free ($0) and Basic ($19 a month, website included) sit below it. Masjidal does not publish its pricing; you request a quote.

The screen in your hall is fed by the same portal you run the community from. Prayer and iqama times with a countdown, Jumu'ah times, this week's events, campaign totals and announcements come from records you already keep, in four layouts, horizontal or vertical, with a Ramadan mode and an urgent notice that reaches every screen at once.

Questions

Yes, and they do not conflict. Masjidal's Athan clocks cover prayer times in members' homes. Ummah covers events, donations, members, and announcements, and on Advanced it also runs your in-masjid TV displays and a kiosk on hardware you already own.
Ummah does not make athan clocks or sell hardware. It runs TV displays and a kiosk, both included on Advanced, on hardware you already own: the displays open from a web link on any smart-TV browser or HDMI stick, and the Ummah Kiosk runs on an iPad or Android tablet. There is no Ummah wall clock.
Masjidal does not publish pricing; you request a quote. Ummah's full rate card is public: Free at $0 (3% on paid tickets), Basic at $19 a month (1.5%, website included) and Advanced at $75 a month billed annually (0%), which bundles TV displays, the kiosk, vendor booth maps and the website. Free events are always free.
Masjidal offers mDonate, though its site does not publish details like fees. Ummah's donations include campaigns, recurring giving, embeddable widgets, refunds, and the Ummah Kiosk for tap-to-pay giving on a tablet you already own, integrated with your member records, with published pricing. If donations need to connect to membership and events data, that integration is Ummah's advantage.
