Purpose
Islamp3.com is a Muslim developed website that is dedicated to providing many
popular Islamic songs in mp3 format on the internet.
History
Past
This site was first launched on 11 Jumad Awal 1421 (August
20, 2001). It was desiged to provide cd-quality Islamic music, many from rare
tapes that you would only find in the small shops in the middle-east. Although some of
the songs did not exactly reach CD quality, the site became relatively
popular in the short time of a week. The site opened with close to 50 songs
and received about 10 hits a day. It gained a little fame but soon after it
reached its climax, Geocities deleted all the mp3s. The 1gb of space registered
with Geocities was unable to serve the site's many mp3's. The site soon became a memory, with many people
requesting it to be put back up. Several months later the host of the front
page deleted the page, and it was not backed up. A new site design had to
be made.
Months after, the site had retained all the songs from the old site. And with
a new look and new server, it had become better than before. More songs were added, and the site was
operational for the next 2 years.
Present
Currently, the site has been redeveloped once more. Islamp3.com now features multiple designs, and allows
for changing the look by the click of a button. The site structure was also redesigned, allowing for easier navigation and use.
Future
Insha'Allah, this site is looking for even more expansion. The goal is to
provide many Islamic songs and become a portal of Islamic music. But in order to allow for this expansion, the site will need
some help. If you would like to read more about this, please visit the request
page.
Insha'Allah, you have found this site to be of some use.
