A Muslim marriage app for Norway.
From Oslo, Bergen, Trondheim and Stavanger, Zawaj helps Muslims in Norway find a spouse for nikah, not casual dating, with the family involved. The app’s interface is in English.
A small community, spread over a large country.
Norway’s Muslims include communities from Pakistan, Somalia, Iraq, Turkey, Bosnia and elsewhere, with Oslo having the largest concentration.
With a small population spread across a long country, Zawaj helps you reach serious Muslims in other cities and abroad, with your family involved when you choose.
A marriage app, not a dating site.
Proposals, not swiping
You send or receive a written proposal instead of a like, so intentions are clear from the first message. Involve your wali or family whenever you are ready.
Search your way
Filter by practice, sect, background and location, in Oslo or across Norway, and see who is open to relocating.
Verified and safe
Verification, photo blur and reporting tools help keep your search private and out fake profiles. Read how to spot fake profiles.
Nikah and the law in Norway.
In Norway, a legal marriage generally needs the authorities to confirm you are free to marry, followed by a ceremony by someone authorised to solemnise marriages. A nikah on its own is generally not a legal marriage, so many couples also hold a civil ceremony. Our nikah in Sweden, Denmark and Norway guide explains the steps.
There is also a Svenska sida for Swedish readers. Read more in our nikah in Europe guide.

What is the best Muslim marriage app in Norway?

Are Muslim dating apps haram?
Many scholars say using an app to find a spouse is permissible when the intention is marriage, conversations stay respectful and purposeful, and the family or wali is involved. Casual dating is a different matter. Read more in are Muslim dating apps haram?
