4. User Content

Any content you upload — your profile photo, name, or announcements as an admin — remains yours. By uploading it, you give MyAlMasjid permission to display it within your masjid community on the app. We don't sell your content to anyone.

MyAlMasjid may remove content that violates these Terms without prior notice.

5. User Roles & Masjid Accounts

The App supports multiple user roles — Member, Imam, Muezzin, Committee Member, and Admin. Roles are assigned by the registered masjid administrator.

Admin users are responsible for ensuring that all members and content within their masjid community comply with these Terms. Admins who knowingly allow misuse may have their accounts suspended.

6. Live Audio (Azan Feature)

The Imam/Muezzin role enables live audio broadcasting within a masjid community. By using this feature, you agree to:

• Not broadcast content that is abusive, misleading, offensive, or contrary to Islamic values;
• Not use the feature to impersonate religious authorities or convey false religious rulings;
• Obtain the consent of your masjid's admin before using the broadcast feature.

MyAlMasjid does not record or store live audio. Misuse of the live audio feature may result in immediate role revocation and account suspension.
