Halal matrimony in Sydney, the way your family would want it done

Sydney holds one of the largest and longest-settled Muslim communities in Australia, and it is spread right across the basin — Lebanese and Palestinian families through the inner south-west, Turkish families around Auburn, Bangladeshi, Afghan and Pakistani households out through Lakemba, Rooty Hill and the growing suburbs of the west. Finding someone who shares your deen shouldn't be the hard part. Usually the hard part is finding a way to look that your parents are comfortable with.

Zawaj™ is built for exactly that. It sits inside Alkasa, the app plenty of Sydney Muslims already open for prayer times and halal food, and it works the way a Muslim family expects: a sister's wali is listed on her profile from the day she creates it, nobody can message her, and when two people match it is her wali's number that opens — never hers.

How it works

Four steps, and none of them are swiping

  1. 1

    Open Zawaj™ inside Alkasa

    It is a feature of the Islamic app you may already have, not a separate account to explain to anybody.

  2. 2

    Write a profile about your deen

    Practice, family, intentions, what you are actually looking for. Sisters add their wali's details here.

  3. 3

    Match on mutual interest

    Nothing opens off one person's enthusiasm. There is no inbox and no way to be pestered.

  4. 4

    Her wali gets the call

    The brother receives her guardian's contact details — never her own — and the families talk.

Questions

Asked by Sydney families

Zawaj™ sits inside Alkasa, which already has a substantial Sydney user base across the south-west and west — people who came for halal restaurant listings, HalalScan™ and prayer times. You can filter by city so you are looking at people who are realistically in reach of your family, not on the other side of the country.
