Wali Marriage

Wali Marriage is a halal Muslim matchmaking app designed for people who are ready to pursue marriage with clear intentions. Guided by Islamic values, the platform places the wali, family involvement, and modesty at the center of the matchmaking experience. It aims to offer a more private and purposeful alternative to conventional dating apps, with no swiping or profile carousels.

Members sign up, confirm they are at least 18, complete identity verification, and create profiles describing themselves and the spouse they seek. They can browse profiles, send interest requests, and chat with wali oversight. For sisters, a wali can read chats and approve connections; for brothers, the wali serves in an advisory role. The platform also describes privacy measures including removing photo metadata, reviewing images, and displaying approximate city-level distance rather than exact coordinates.

Founded by Abe Harbid, Wali Marriage is being introduced city by city. The company offers email and SMS sign-up options for launch updates, alongside information about verification, moderation, safety, and its community guidelines.
