The research
Why Nikah.App?
We asked hundreds of Muslims what's broken about marriage apps. Here's what they said:
72%
Feels like a dating app
Swipes, looks-first profiles, and casual chatting. This was not what marriage-minded Muslims are looking for.
80%
Compatibility questions are surface level
Height and profession, but nothing on deen, values, or what actually makes a marriage last.
75%
ID verification matters, but isn't enough
Fake profiles, scammers, and people misrepresenting their intentions remain common complaints.
63%
No real guardian / wali involvement
Most apps treat wali involvement as an afterthought, if they mention it at all.
$40+
Expensive, for very little
Steep monthly paywalls just to message or see who's interested, with no guarantee of a serious match.
63%
Deen matters most, but isn't prioritized on apps
Religious practice ranks as the top priority for nearly everyone, yet it's rarely the first thing apps ask about.
Inside the app
Built for marriage, screen by screen.
Your week
A few people a week. Chosen with care.
No swiping and no endless lists. Every week you get a small set of people who fit what you are looking for, so you can take your time with each one.
- Matched on deen, family and the life you want
- Your non-negotiables are always respected
- Photos stay blurred until you choose to reveal
The reasons
Know why before you say yes.
Every suggestion comes with its reasons: where you agree on faith, family and timeline, and what is worth talking about early.
- A compatibility score you can open and read
- “Why she was suggested” in plain words
- The things worth discussing, flagged before you start
Suhba
A conversation with intent.
When you both say yes, a private Suhba opens. It is built for getting to know someone for marriage, not for passing time.
- Messages with numbers, links or anything inappropriate are stopped
- iShaykh suggests a good question when you are stuck
- End a Suhba kindly, in one tap
Your wali
Your wali, included.
Invite your wali to follow your Suhba with a link, without an account. The other person agrees first, and your wali reads along quietly.
- Read-only access, by email
- Only messages from the day they join
- Remove access at any time
Safety
Safe by design.
A verified badge means a live selfie check was passed, and any photo added after it has to show the same face.
- Screenshots and screen recordings are blocked in Suhba
- Report or block in two taps; a person reads every report
- Your exact location is never shown
The difference
How Nikah.App Is Different
A smooth, respectful, and simple process - from booking to the big moment.
01
Deen Comes First
Religious practice, values, and marriage intentions are asked upfront, not buried after profession and height.
02
Verified, not vague
ID, age, and photo verification for every profile, so you know who you're actually talking to.
03
Your wali, included
Optional but built-in guardian involvement, with visibility into your matches, not an afterthought.
04
Matched for the long run
Compatibility and durability shown separately, so you see both who fits and who's built to last.
05
Family Services
Book Imams and family counsellors right in the app, for the nikah ceremony and for the years after it.
06
GAME
Know Yourself
Twenty-seven short levels of questions about your deen, your values, and how you actually live. Answering them builds the profile your matches are made from.
Four chapters, one level at a time
Finish a level, unlock one free extra match
