The Truth About Muslim Matchmaking

By Frances Miller


For Muslims, matchmaking and dating are totally different things because matchmaking is something that is done traditionally and even the families are involved. These days, there are plenty of Muslim matchmaking websites and if you're lucky enough you would be able to find a perfect match for yourself.

Traditionally, Muslim families would ask their friends or relatives if they know some good families where they could marry off their son or daughter. Even the services of a matrimonial agencies are hired sometime to make the whole process easy and hassle free.

When you go to a matrimonial agency they will ask you all sorts of questions related to your age, height and other personal details. You will be asked about your education and employment status as well and what type of partner you desire. Based on your answers, they will find a match for you and only if you think its a suitable match, they will arrange your first meeting. This meeting is usually between the families.

You may be allowed to meet your match only if your parent's allow you and usually its done in a very controlled way. Either the meeting is arranged at the family house or even if you meet outside, another family member will be accompanying you. For some individuals things like career and education is important while others desire a partner who is a practicing Muslim.

In Muslim culture the entire family is to some degree required in the matchmaking procedure. Dislike, you are dating somebody and afterward acquaint them with your family. Actually, its the inverse, for the most part the family will acquaint you with a conceivable match. Regardless of the possibility that you make your profile on a matchmaking site, your family will have their contribution to a specific degree.

Making an online profile does give you a bit of privacy as you're not discussing each and every detail with your parents. Its kind of a way out from your parents watchful eyes. But, still there is a stigma involved with online matrimony and many people believe its not a safe option because there are lots of fraudsters out there.

There are Muslims who think a bit openly and for them there are Muslim dating websites. With the websites the downside is that there are many fraudulent out there so you cannot trust someone completely. Therefore its better to be safe and opt for options like seeking help from a matrimonial agency because the matches they show you are well scrutinized so you can have your peace of mind.

Usually, Muslims do not prolong the dating scene, their main focus is to find someone good and get married straightaway. Even the engagements are kept short and sharp and more focus is laid upon organizing the wedding. Its morally wrong to have relationships before getting married because a lot of importance is given to preserving yourself and protecting yourself for the right person who is going to be your future wife or husband.
