The Muslim marriage app for Auckland.
Zawaj helps Muslims in Auckland who are ready for marriage meet each other with clear intentions, with written proposals instead of swiping and your family involved when you choose.
New Zealand’s largest Muslim community, still a small pool.
Auckland’s Muslims include Fijian Indian, South Asian, Arab, Somali, Southeast Asian and Pacific communities, plus many students and professionals who moved from abroad.
In a country this size, it can feel hard to meet someone suitable who you do not already know through family. Zawaj lets you widen the search across New Zealand, and further if you are open to moving.
Built for how Auckland Muslims actually search.
Auckland and beyond
Search Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch, or widen to Australia if you are open to moving.

No casual dating and no endless swiping. Written proposals make it clear that people are serious.
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.
