Field notes
The described setup uses the imam’s phone as the microphone, a browser-enabled TV, and an internet connection; the site says no additional mosque equipment is needed. It also describes uploading a khutbah in Word, PDF, or Google Doc format for sentence-by-sentence review before delivery. The founder section identifies Adem Garic as an imam in Erie, Pennsylvania, and says the project is in early access with Bosnian-speaking communities in the United States.
