Questions people ask before joining Zawaj.
Straight answers about safety, cost, family involvement, and how Zawaj compares to other apps — from a team that's helped build a community of 50,000+ Muslims worldwide.
How do I contact Zawaj support?
The fastest way to reach us is by email at zawaj.sunnahmarriage@gmail.com. We read every message and aim to reply as quickly as we can.
Is Zawaj free to use?
Yes — creating a profile, browsing, and messaging matches is free. Zawaj Gold and Boosts are optional paid features for people who want extra visibility or filters.
Is Zawaj a dating app or a marriage app?
Zawaj is a marriage app, not a dating app. Every part of it — the sign-up questions, the filters, and the proposal-based matching — is built around marriage, not casual dating.
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. See our Safety & Privacy page for more detail.
Is Zawaj available where I live?
Zawaj is available worldwide on iOS and Android, with active communities in the UK, USA, Europe, Indonesia, Pakistan, India and beyond. Search "Zawaj Marriage" in your app store to check availability.
How is Zawaj different from Muzz, Salams, or other Muslim marriage apps?
Every app has its own approach. Zawaj focuses on a simple, proposal-based flow with no swiping, strong filters on practice and intention, and features like a monthly draw and support for second-marriage searches. See our comparison page for a fair, factual breakdown.
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.
Can I involve my wali or family in my search?
Yes. There’s no single required approach — many members bring a parent or wali in from the first conversation, others introduce family later. Read our guide on involving your wali for practical tips.
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.
How do I create a good profile on Zawaj?
Be specific and honest about your practice, background, and what you’re looking for. Our guide on writing a marriage profile that gets responses covers exactly what to include.
Can I cancel Zawaj Gold or a Boost subscription?
Yes — Zawaj Gold and Boosts are managed through your device’s app store subscription settings, and you can cancel anytime from there.
