Choose Your Mosque & Reciter

Search 550+ mosques by name or city. Pick a reciter from 13+ options — Mishary Rashid, Abdul Basit, Al-Afasy, Makkah-style, and more. Configure each prayer independently: different reciter for Fajr, live mosque stream for Jumu'ah, silence for Isha.

550+ mosques · 13+ reciters

Done — Azan Plays Automatically

Your Echo plays the azan at every prayer time. Every day. Prayer times are server-calculated and auto-update — no Daylight Saving Time surprises, no manual routines to maintain. The azan plays through Alexa's AudioPlayer, giving you native controls: pause, volume, stop.

Zero maintenance after setup

Why Masjids.Live

Built Right. Not Bolted On.

Every other Alexa azan skill takes shortcuts. We went deeper.

Masjids.Live

AudioPlayer — Native Experience

  • AudioPlayer API: proper playback with native Alexa controls
  • No 240-second limit — full azan + dua, uninterrupted
  • Pause, resume, stop work exactly as expected
  • Server-calculated prayer times — auto-updates for DST
  • No Alexa Routines to create or maintain
  • Per-prayer settings remembered permanently

Other Alexa Skills

SSML — The Quick Workaround

  • SSML speech synthesis: meant for reading text aloud
  • Hard 240-second cutoff — azan gets cut mid-recitation
  • No stop button — azan plays to end regardless
  • Relies on manual Alexa Routines that break on DST changes
  • Requires users to update routines twice a year
  • Settings reset when skill session ends

We spent weeks implementing AudioPlayer properly. Others spent an afternoon with SSML.
