A convenient and popular alternative for finding a marriage partner.

Zawaj.com was founded in 1998 by Wael Hesham Abdelgawad of Oakland , California . Wael is an Egyptian-American web developer, writer and researcher. He has been involved with various Islamic causes for over twenty years.

Zawaj.com is more than a matrimonial service. Zawaj.com also has several talented and dedicated writers who write columns such as Ask Bilqis, Our Families, Teen Perspective and Egyptian Tales. Our goal is to provide quality and accurate Islamic information and services in all areas of marriage and family in Islam.

As for our matrimonial service, it was a free service for several years but has been a paid service since March 2002. Membership fees are used to expand and improve the website and pay ongoing costs.

We believe Zawaj.com is one of the two or three best Muslim matrimonial services on the web. We have a high degree of quality control. We pride ourselves on responsive customer service. We are always working to improve the website. And we have had many, many successful matches over the years, al-hamdulillah.
