The Muslim marriage app for Vancouver.
Zawaj helps Muslims in Vancouver who are ready for marriage meet each other with clear intentions, with written proposals instead of swiping and your family involved when you choose.
A diverse west-coast community.
Greater Vancouver’s Muslim community includes people with South Asian, Iranian, Arab, East African and many other backgrounds, in Vancouver itself and in Burnaby, Surrey and Richmond.
Distances in the region and a high cost of living mean many people have to think carefully about where they will live. Zawaj helps you meet serious Muslims across Metro Vancouver and further afield.
Built for how Vancouver Muslims actually search.
Everyone is there for nikah
No casual dating and no endless swiping. Written proposals make it clear that people are serious.
Filters that matter
Search by practice, sect, background and location, in Vancouver or across Canada, so you can find someone who shares your priorities.
Family involved, your way
Once a proposal is accepted, talk by message, voice or video call, and bring your wali in with the Chaperone/Wali feature.
Where will you live?
Housing is a real conversation in Vancouver. It is better to talk honestly about where you would live and how you would share responsibilities before a proposal than after.
Marriage in Canada is regulated by each province. To be legally married you generally need a marriage licence and a ceremony performed by an officiant registered in that province. Many imams are registered, so the nikah can also be the legal marriage. Our nikah in Canada guide explains more.
