Crafted for the masjid community
Hala Ride is a mission-driven platform founded by a student who saw the need for reliable transportation during daily prayers, Friday khutbahs, and community events. We bridge the gap between willing drivers and worshippers who need a ride.

— Qur'an, Surat Al-Ma'idah 5:2
