Zawaj: finding your Muslim spouse online, the halal way

Marriage is a sunnah and a source of tranquility, affection and mercy, as Surah Ar-Rum (30:21) reminds us.

Nooryaa combines values and modern tools:

• iPhone, Android and web app;
• three languages: French, English, Arabic;
• verification and moderation;
• free registration.

Whether you live in Europe, North Africa, the Middle East, Africa or the Americas, you can meet singles who share your goal.

“Zawaj” (زواج) is the Arabic word for marriage. In Islam it is a commitment between a man and a woman, made with the consent of both spouses, in front of witnesses and with a dowry (mahr). The Quran describes it as a source of tranquillity, affection and mercy (Surah Ar-Rum, 30:21).

A serious zawaj site does not replace family or personal reflection: it helps you meet people who share the same intention. A simple approach:

• define your essential criteria (religious practice, place of living, family plans);
• write an honest profile, without exaggeration;
• talk respectfully and ask important questions early;
• involve family or a trusted person before committing;
• arrange a mouqabala (supervised meeting) before the nikah.

Many Muslims now meet their spouse in another country. This calls for more caution: confirm the person's identity, never send money, and discuss practical matters (country of residence, papers, work) before any commitment.

Nooryaa is built only for marriage: free sign-up, profiles verified by phone and selfie, human moderation, private messaging, and an app on iPhone, Android and web, in French, English and Arabic.
