Search "Zawaj Marriage" wherever you get your apps, or tap a badge below — it takes seconds to create a profile and start browsing matches serious about marriage.
This is what "Send a Proposal" actually looks like.
No swiping into the void. One tap tells someone exactly where you stand — and they know it's not a game, because everyone on Zawaj is here for the same reason.
Five steps. One clear intention.
Every part of Zawaj is designed around what actually matters in a marriage — values, practice, background, and what you're looking for in a partner.
Create your profile
Share who you are — your practice, your background, and what you're looking for in a spouse.

Take it further
When you're ready, move the conversation toward what matters — marriage.
From a proposal to standing together at the Ka'aba.
This is the arc every part of Zawaj is built around — not a conversation that goes nowhere, but a path with an actual destination.
Send a proposal
When you're serious about someone, you say so clearly — not with a swipe. A proposal on Zawaj means your intentions are already on the table, so there's no guessing where you stand.
Start married life right
Many Zawaj couples' first trip together is Umrah — beginning married life exactly the way it was meant to start, with intention, faith, and each other.

"Marriage is a serious step, and finding the right person for it shouldn't feel like a game."
Why we built Zawaj
Zawaj was built for one purpose: helping Muslims find a spouse. We saw how mainstream dating apps treated marriage as an afterthought — built for swiping, not for serious intentions.
So we built something different: a focused, respectful space where every profile is built around what actually matters in a marriage — values, practice, background, and what you're looking for in a partner. No games. No noise. Just people here for the same reason you are.
Whether you're actively searching or just getting started, Zawaj is here to support you on the path to marriage.
Marriage in Islam isn't a footnote to a relationship — it's the point of it. It's described as completing half of one's faith, a source of tranquillity, and a partnership built on mutual mercy and compassion, not just attraction. We built Zawaj to take that seriously from the very first screen: every question we ask, every filter we offer, exists to help you find someone you can build that with, not just someone to talk to.
Whether you're single, divorced, or widowed — this search is yours to lead.
A growing number of our members are Muslim women across the UK creating a profile for the first time, or searching again after divorce or the loss of a husband. There's no "right" background for starting a halal search — just a clear intention and, when you're ready, a supportive space to act on it.
Creating a profile takes a few minutes: share your practice, your background, and what you're looking for, with full control over what you share and when. Verification and reporting tools are built in, and nothing about the process rushes you past involving your family or wali. See our dedicated page for UK Muslim women — including guidance for divorced and widowed women, or our broader Zawaj for women page for more on how we approach safety and privacy.
Support for second marriage, too.
Marriage in Islam isn't limited to one wife at a time, and Zawaj reflects that. Men considering a second marriage can be upfront about it on their profile, and search specifically for women open to the same arrangement — no hiding it, no explaining it after the fact.
Polygynous marriage carries different legal recognition depending on where you live. Zawaj doesn't provide legal advice, so it's worth understanding the rules where you are before moving forward.

What people ask before joining.
What is the best Muslim marriage app?
The best Muslim marriage app is one built for nikah rather than casual dating — with verified profiles, filters for practice and values, and room for your wali. That is exactly what Zawaj Marriage is built for. Compare the options in our guide to the best app for marriage.
Is Zawaj a rishta website?
Yes — Zawaj works as a rishta website and app in one. Families and individuals use it to find a rishta online, with verified profiles and parents able to stay involved.
Is Zawaj Marriage the same as Zawaj Match, Pure Zawaj or Zawj.com?
No. Zawaj Marriage (zawajmarriage.com) is an independent Muslim marriage app, listed as “Zawaj Marriage” on the App Store and Google Play. “Zawaj” simply means marriage in Arabic, so several unrelated services use the word; we are not affiliated with Zawaj Match, Pure Zawaj, Zawj.com or Nikah.com.
Is Zawaj free to use?
Yes — creating a profile, browsing, and messaging matches is free. Zawaj Premium and Boosts are optional paid features for people who want extra visibility or filters.
What makes Zawaj different from a regular dating app?
Every part of Zawaj is built around marriage, not casual dating — from the questions we ask when you sign up, to the filters on practice and intention, to how proposals and chats work.
Is Zawaj safe for women?
Profile verification and reporting tools are built in to help filter out non-serious users, and we keep improving these based on direct feedback from our community.
How does the monthly £500 draw work?
Create a profile and use one Boost during the month, and you're automatically entered — one entry per person, full terms are in the app.
Is Zawaj available where I live?
Zawaj is available worldwide on iOS and Android, with the strongest community currently in the UK.
Does Zawaj support second marriage (polygyny)?
Yes. Men considering a second marriage can indicate this on their profile and connect with women open to the same arrangement. Zawaj doesn't provide legal advice, so it's worth understanding the rules in your own country before proceeding.
