How our service works

• Payment process
• Account Activation

Please note that names, email addresses and telephone numbers are kept on a separate database that only Admin can access for privacy and security reasons. All profiles are anonymous and only members have access to the profiles. We do not pass on/sell or disclose our members private information with any third party.

• Once a match is made we pass onto the brother the Wali contact number of the sister and his name, as well as the first name of the sister. Email addresses of sisters are passed onto the brother if she has no wali, however we do stress on the importance of the Walis involvement in the process. If a sister has no wali she can contact us for advice on how to appoint one.
• Once payment has been confirmed by Admin you will receive an email with your login details to fill out a profile and conduct searches and a receipt for your payment.
• If there are any matches we will send the profiles to your email each week if you fill out the weekly alert form.
• You cannot contact anyone on the database, however you can express interest in any profiles you like. The other member will receive an alert letting them know you are interested and they then have the chance to read through your profile to see if you are compatible. They can then either express interest back or decline it. If interest is expressed back we pass on the wali details of the sister to the brother.
• You can upload a photo and you have the option to hide it and show it to those you are interested in only.
• It is recommended that you login on a weekly basis to check your alerts and any new profiles. We will email you when members expresses interest in your profile and have responded to other requests.

What makes us different from other online sites?

• It truly complies with the Quran and Sunna and attracts serious people seeking marriage the halal way. No direct contact is made between men and women. It is our job as Admin to create contact when a match arises and we pass on the wali details of the sister to the brother, therefore making the site Islamically safe to use for our members. If a sister has no wali then we can pass on her email address, however we try to avoid this as much as possible and try to get one appointed for her.
• It is a service that was initially set up, launched in and approved by Regents Park Mosque and other mosques in London and Islamic organisations (listed on our supporters page).
• You can email or call us if you need any help with our service or wish to speak to Admin.
• We respect the privacy and confidentiality of our members and to ensure this, we do not allow their names and contact details to be displayed to other members in their profiles. We also ensure that brothers and sisters are dressed modestly in their photos.
• It has had Islamic approval from many Imams and influencial people such as Brother Abdulraheem Green and Sheikh Riyadh Al Haq from Al Kawthar Akademy who were both speakers at Afaf’s launch events in 2009.
• Due to the Islamic nature of our service we tend to attract practicing brothers and sisters, however this is not aimed only at practicing Muslims, we hope that all Muslims will be encouraged to follow this way inshaAllah.
• Both men and women pay the same membership fee to join. The fee is affordable inshaAllah and less in price than many other site fees. It is a fixed £75 for 12 months membership, which breaks down to only £6.25 a month. We depend on membership fees to run the service and we aim to attract the serious people and filter out those who are not genuine or serious about getting married. Only serious people will pay the fee and only serious brothers will be willing to sign up to a service knowing they must contact the wali of the sister if a match is made inshaAllah. We cannot guarantee a match for you, as this is in Allah’s power, however in all cases your money is going to a good cause in helping us to run this service that will help many Muslims inshaAllah. You will get rewarded for every penny you spend for the sake of pleasing Allah and in your efforts to fulfil half your religion.
• Only permanent UK/EU residents can sign up for this service at the moment.
• There is an opportunity for Muslims to donate membership fees to Afaf in charity to help sisters in particular find a suitable partner. There are blessings for those who make the effort to help their brothers and sisters get married the halal way inshaAllah and the rewards will be on-going in this life and the next (sadaqa jariya). A membership could be given to someone in the form of charity or in the form of a gift for someone you know.
