World-first — only on Zawji

How Zawji involves your wali — for real

Other platforms talk about wali. We built the world's only system where your wali signs digitally, reads your conversations in real-time, and can pause anytime — without learning an app or creating an account. Everything works through a link you share with him on WhatsApp.

1

You share a link with your father

When you want to chat with your first match, you pick your father's language (47 languages supported, plus a write-your-own option), open WhatsApp, and send him a pre-formatted link. No need to call him, no third party listens in.

2

He clicks and signs

Dad clicks the link, reads a short page about Zawji in his language, and presses the SIGN button. One click. His consent is logged with timestamp, IP, and device info — a form of wakalah delegation per classical fiqh (see IslamQA 85099 + AMJA fatwa below).

3

His signature lasts forever

You never need to ask his permission again — not even for future matches. He has granted you general consent to use Zawji to find a husband.

4

He has ongoing oversight

Dad's link lives forever. When he opens it, he sees every active conversation, every brother's profile you're chatting with, and can pause your account anytime if something feels off.

Dad is never left out — he's always one click away

On other platforms, wali is often left out after initial consent. With us, he's a partner from day one to nikah. When he opens his signing link, he can:

  • Read every approved message between you and every brother you chat with (read-only)
  • See the brothers' full profiles — name, age, city, deen, work, life goals
  • See your own profile exactly as the brothers see it
  • Pause your entire account with one click if anything feels wrong
  • Everything in his language — 47 languages supported including Somali, Arabic, Tigrinya, Urdu, Persian, Turkish, etc.
No new app to learn

Dad just opens WhatsApp and clicks a link. No account, no password, nothing more.

Grounded in classical fiqh

Wakalah delegation through 'reliable means' is valid per AMJA, IslamQA (fatwa 85099), and British Fatwa Council.

Admin reviews every message

As an extra safeguard, Zawji admin reads every message before it's delivered — nothing slips by.

What if my father doesn't want to sign?+
He can say no or pause anytime — then you can't chat. This is his right per Islam. If your father has passed away, is non-Muslim, or hostile for unreasonable reasons, you can nominate an imam or a mahram relative as wakil. Email hej@zawji.se for help.
Is this really halal?+
Yes. Saalih al-Munajjid (IslamQA fatwa 85099) has explicitly approved matrimonial platforms that are 'controlled by Islamic guidelines.' We go further: explicit wakalah delegation (classical fiqh per AMJA), admin moderation (prevents khulwa), and wali has ongoing oversight. Existing Salafi platforms follow the same principle but without our signing technology.
My father lives abroad — does it still work?+
Yes. WhatsApp works globally. You pick his language (50+ options) and the link is delivered straight to his WhatsApp. He can be anywhere — Somalia, Eritrea, Syria, Pakistan, Bangladesh — the flow is identical.
I'm a convert and have no Muslim father. What do I do?+
Classical fiqh allows an imam, mahram relative, or respected Muslim elder to act as wali (or wakil) for a convert. At registration, you can select 'imam' as the relation. If you need help finding an imam — email hej@zawji.se, we'll connect you to a local mosque.
Will my father get spam messages from Zawji?+
No, never. We send 0 (zero) emails, SMS or notifications to your father — ever. YOU share the signing link with him via WhatsApp. When he signs, we send ONE email to YOU confirming his consent is registered. Dad never hears from Zawji directly.

On Zawji, your wali isn't an administrative hurdle — he's a partner through the entire journey from first chat to nikah.
