The Muslim marriage app for Edinburgh.
Edinburgh has a smaller but close Muslim community made up of families, professionals and students from across the world. Zawaj helps Muslims in Edinburgh and across Scotland meet someone who is ready for nikah.
A small city, a wide Scottish search.
Muslims in Edinburgh include British Pakistani families, Arab and Southeast Asian communities, and thousands of university students and graduates who stay for work. The community is warm but small, and in a small community it can be hard to search privately.
Zawaj lets you search Edinburgh, Glasgow and the rest of Scotland, or go further south, with privacy controls that keep your search your own.
Built for how Edinburgh Muslims actually search.
Across Scotland
Search Edinburgh, Glasgow, Dundee and Aberdeen with the distance filter, or widen to northern England.
Private in a small community
Blur your photos and share more only when you choose.
Students and professionals
Written proposals let you search at your own pace around study and work.
Nikah and legal marriage in Scotland.
Scotland’s rules are different: authorised celebrants can conduct a legally valid marriage, so a nikah can also be the legal marriage. You give notice to the registrar, generally at least 29 days beforehand. Our guide to nikah in the UK covers Scotland in more detail.
