The Muslim marriage app for Reading.
Zawaj helps Muslims in Reading who are ready for marriage meet each other with clear intentions, with proposals instead of swiping and your family involved when you choose.
A Thames Valley town with working professionals and students.
Reading has a diverse Muslim community, including professionals who work in the Thames Valley’s tech and business sectors, students at the university, and long-established families. Many commute to London or Slough.
Busy professionals often have little time for the traditional round of introductions. Zawaj lets you search at your own pace, on your own schedule, with the seriousness a marriage search needs.
Built for how Reading 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, close to Reading or across the UK, 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.
Work, commute and nikah.
If your job keeps you busy, say so honestly and talk early about how you would balance careers and family. It is better to discuss these things before a proposal than after.
Marriage events can be a way to meet people in person, though many find them rushed. Read our honest guide to Muslim marriage events in the UK, and see nikah in the UK for how a nikah relates to UK law.
