Marriage the way it wasmeant to begin.

Sakina is open to Muslim men and women of marriageable age who are genuinely seeking marriage in accordance with the Sunnah — whether never-married, divorced, widowed, or looking to enter a polygynous marriage. Converts to Islam are equally welcome; there is no ethnic or geographic restriction.

Yes. Sisters register, create a full profile, and use the platform — browsing and receiving interests — free of charge. This is intentional: we do not want cost to be a barrier for women seeking a righteous spouse. Brothers pay a subscription that funds the moderation, wali oversight, and platform work.

Every sister's profile is linked to a wali (father, brother, paternal uncle, or another sharʿī guardian). During registration she provides her wali's name and contact details. He is notified of every interest, approves or declines on her behalf, and — once both sides accept a match — receives the brother's contact details directly so any further conversation is his to arrange and oversee, offline.

If no male relative is available or Muslim, a sister may nominate a trustworthy local imam or a representative of a recognised masjid to act as her wali. Our team can help facilitate this where possible. A sister is never asked to proceed without a wali — this is a non-negotiable part of the Sakina process.

Yes. Where a suitable family wali does not exist, an imam or masjid representative from a Sunnī community may fulfil the role, in line with the classical fiqh position on the sulṭān / imam standing as wali for the one who has no guardian.

The wali sees his ward's profile, every interest she sends or receives, and — once a match forms — the identity and contact details of the brother she has matched with, so he can carry the conversation forward. He does not see her password, her private notes, or the profiles of other sisters on the platform.

We deliberately keep the platform photo-free. Modesty (ḥayāʾ) is central to marriage in Islam, and photos on matrimonial sites frequently circulate outside their intended audience. Descriptions, family details, and dīn are what matter at this stage. Once both sides — and the wali — are seriously considering the match, a formal viewing (الرؤية الشرعية) can be arranged offline.

Every profile is manually reviewed by our team before it goes live. We check that the information is consistent, that the wali contact is genuine (for sisters), and that the intention is serious. Review typically takes 24–72 hours. If anything needs clarification we contact you directly rather than rejecting silently.

Yes. Profiles are shown under an anonymous profile code — never your legal name. Contact details, wali details, and identifying information are only revealed to a specific member after a mutual interest and, for sisters, wali approval. Sakina is not indexed by search engines at the profile level.

1) You browse anonymous profiles filtered by what matters to you. 2) You send an interest to a profile that seems suitable. 3) For a sister, her wali is notified and reviews the brother's profile. 4) If the other side (and the wali) accept, a match is formed. 5) The sister's wali receives the brother's contact details directly. 6) Further conversation and any formal meeting is arranged offline, under the wali's oversight.

Sakina hands contact off: the sister's wali receives the brother's phone and (where provided) email, and the brother receives the wali's contact details. There is no private in-app chat between the brother and the sister. From that point, further conversation and any formal meeting is arranged by the wali, offline.

There are no private in-app messages between brothers and sisters to read — contact is handed off directly to the wali once a match is formed. Our moderation team reviews profiles, reported behaviour, and any support conversations, and reserves the right to act on confirmed misconduct.

Sisters browse and use the full platform for free. Brothers can register and complete a profile at no cost, but must subscribe before they can send interests or receive matches.

Brothers choose Standard — Monthly at $4.99/month. Full details are shown on the pricing page inside the app.

Standard — Monthly can be cancelled at any time from your Whop account (Manage membership), or via “Contact support” inside the app or via sakinabymarkazalfawzaan.com; access continues until the end of the paid period. Standard — 6 Months needs no cancellation: it is a single payment and access ends after 6 months. Members on an older monthly, quarterly or annual plan can contact support to stop their renewals.

All sales are final. No refunds. Standard — Monthly: $4.99/month

Your account is protected by industry-standard authentication and encrypted in transit. Profile visibility is controlled by strict server-side rules — a brother cannot view sisters' private fields, and vice versa. We do not sell data. We do not run third-party advertising trackers on member pages.

Every profile has a report option, and any support conversation with our team can be flagged too. Reports go to our moderation team and, where relevant, to the wali. Confirmed misconduct results in warnings, suspension, or permanent removal without refund. Safeguarding takes priority over subscription status.

A wali or close family member may help a sister complete her profile, but the account belongs to the sister herself and she must be aware of and consent to what is written. Fully proxy accounts — where the member on the platform is not the person seeking marriage — are not allowed.

Message us directly from your dashboard using the "Contact support" link — our team replies inside the site. You can also email us as a fallback if needed.

Sakina is not a dating app. There are no photos, no in-app private chats between brothers and sisters, no swiping, no 'casual' tier. Every female profile is tied to a wali, contact on match is handed directly to him, and the goal from day one is a serious marriage on the Sunnah — not a series of conversations.

Not yet. Sakina is currently a web platform, designed to work well on both desktop and mobile browsers. A dedicated mobile app is on the roadmap, inshāʾAllāh, but we prioritised getting the moderation, wali oversight, and privacy model right before shipping apps.
