Family involved, privacy protected
The Chaperone/Wali feature lets a parent or wali take part, and you can blur your photos so only the people you choose can see them.
A proposal, not a swipe
Interest starts with a written proposal. Conversation begins only once it is accepted, and voice or video calls follow after that.

Rules change, so confirm the current requirements before you set a date. Our guide to nikah in the USA explains how the religious and legal sides fit together.
