Families First
Every decision starts with what's best for children and the parents raising them, not advertisers and not engagement metrics.
About
Why Mohallah exists
Mohallah exists because Muslim children deserve a digital place that feels like home, and parents deserve one they can trust.
What parents can expect
Mohallah is a digital neighbourhood where Muslim children can play, explore, create, and grow together. It is built for children aged 4 to 11, and for the parents raising them.
What guides us
A small number of promises we intend to keep.
Meaningful Play
Games should entertain, teach, and inspire. They should invite children to imagine, build, cooperate, and grow. They should never manipulate their attention.
Parents Stay in Control
Parents own the account, the purchases, the privacy settings, and the family's data.
Privacy by Design
We collect only what we need, prefer anonymous and aggregate data, build no advertising profiles, and never sell personal information. Your family is never the product.
A Place That Feels Like Home
Muslim identity shows up naturally in familiar names, places, celebrations, values, and stories.
Who builds it
Mohallah is created by Mangla & Co LLC, an independent studio in Virginia building games that help Muslim children grow through play.
Behind the studio are husband-and-wife team Moeed Ahmad and Krystina Derrickson, and their blended family of five kids. Despite their best intentions as parents, they realised that some degree of screen time is unavoidable today, and were frustrated by a meaningless and potentially harmful gaming ecosystem. They wanted an option for Muslim families that not only feels trustworthy and safe, but which also fosters a sense of belonging within a diverse global community, an ummah that spans time and space.
Moeed and Krystina hope that their kids, and yours, feel at home in the towns and cities from across the Muslim world, and that Mohallah supports and strengthens their Muslim identity.
