Our project

The Eco-Friendly Mosque Project highlights the importance of environmental care and sustainability in Islam through creativity and modern technology. Students from the Islamic Studies and IT departments collaborate to design a smart mosque model using BBC Micro:bit devices, showing how faith and innovation can work together for a greener future. The model features ramps and lighting systems to support People of Determination, a digital charity box that promotes generosity, an energy-producing prayer mat that symbolizes light through worship, and solar-powered parking spaces to reduce energy use. This project inspires students to apply Islamic values in practical ways, fostering responsibility, inclusion, and eco-conscious living.

Our inspiration

The students were inspired by the growing need to protect the environment and make worship spaces more inclusive and sustainable. They wanted to show that Islamic teachings encourage caring for the Earth and helping others, and that technology can bring these values to life. By combining faith with innovation, they aimed to design a mosque that reflects environmental responsibility, accessibility for all, and the spirit of community service.
