Hello👋🏻

Community Awareness: Please Be Careful When Using Muslim Marriage Apps

Assalamu Alaikum everyone,

I want to share a personal experience with the community because I believe it is extremely important to raise awareness about potential marriage scams. When it comes to marriage, many of us have sincere intentions and are looking for a genuine partner to build a life with. Unfortunately, some people may try to take advantage of those intentions for financial, immigration, or personal gain.

I recently joined a Muslim marriage app, where a woman from Toronto, Canada, liked my profile and initiated a conversation with me. At first, I approached the conversation with an open mind and assumed she was genuinely interested in marriage.

However, as the conversation progressed, several serious red flags emerged.

She insisted that I travel to Toronto to meet her and stated that moving forward would require the following conditions:

Engagement before proceeding further.
Sponsorship to the United States, which raised concerns about whether immigration benefits were a primary motivation.
Property placed in her name or her family’s name before marriage.

These demands immediately made me uncomfortable. Asking someone to make significant financial or property commitments before marriage, alongside expectations involving immigration sponsorship, is not something anyone should take lightly.

I asked her a straightforward question: If you are looking for a husband, why not find someone in Canada?

Her response was that she was specifically interested in Pashtun men living in the United States.

At that point, I felt the situation carried too many red flags to ignore. Rather than taking unnecessary risks, I decided to end the conversation and block her.

I am sharing this experience not to accuse an entire community or nationality, nor to claim that every person with similar circumstances has bad intentions. I am sharing it to remind everyone that scammers can use marriage, religion, cultural preferences, immigration opportunities, and emotional connections to gain someone’s trust.

Please protect yourself by keeping the following points in mind:

Take your time getting to know someone before making serious commitments.

Never transfer money, purchase property, or place assets in someone else’s name under pressure, especially before marriage.

Be cautious when someone makes engagement, immigration sponsorship, or financial arrangements conditions of continuing a relationship.

Verify a person’s identity, circumstances, and intentions independently. Do not rely solely on what someone tells you online.

Consult a qualified immigration professional before agreeing to any sponsorship obligations, and seek independent legal advice before making property or financial commitments.

If someone pressures you, refuses reasonable questions, or makes demands that do not feel right, do not be afraid to walk away.

Marriage should be built on trust, honesty, mutual respect, and sincere intentions—not pressure, financial demands, or the promise of immigration benefits.

Please do your due diligence, protect your finances and personal information, and do not let the desire to get married cloud your judgment.

I encourage everyone, especially brothers using Muslim marriage apps, to stay vigilant and share their experiences so others can learn from them.

May Allah protect us all from deception, guide us toward sincere spouses, and grant everyone a marriage built on honesty, respect, and barakah. Ameen.

Hi, my name is Latifat. I’m from Africa, and I currently live here as well. 😊

I know this might sound a little strange, but I want to be honest with you from the beginning because I believe every genuine relationship should be built on honesty, love, and trust.

I registered on this app a while ago, but I stopped using it because, for some reason, my location kept showing as the USA even though I’m actually living in Africa. I tried several times to correct it, but nothing worked, so I eventually stopped using the app. Yesterday, I decided to check it again and see if things had changed.

A little about me: I’m a graduate, a graphic designer, a data analyst, and I also make shoes. I believe in hard work, honesty, and being proud of what I do, no matter how big or small it may seem.

I’m telling you all this because I don’t want any misunderstanding between us. I would rather be honest from the start than give you the wrong impression. I know my location might raise questions, and I completely understand that.

If you’re genuinely interested in getting to know me, I’d be happy to get to know you too. I believe that sometimes, a beautiful connection starts with a simple conversation, honesty, and two people willing to give each other a chance. ❤️

Hawen wanaagsan

I have this weird question but why do people celebrate marriage. Two people are going to have intimate moments and here we are celebrating that by feeding random strangers and having Mehdi nights , Sangeet nights , meher and what not . The end result is two people getting along . It seems ridiculous to me . What’s there to celebrate. I don’t see other animals do it . They find each other and when the need is over they separate their ways . Dogs , cats and even insects gets their reproduction process easier than us . We silly humans have a list of requirements for a functional process of society. He has to be six feet tall , she has to be good looking . He has to have a good job to provide . All these for a basic human need . To procreate through natural activities. Making simple things complicated. It might hurt a lot of egos but the truth cannot be denied. Why are we celebrating and have a hill full of requirements when animals don’t have a job , don’t need make up , don’t feed 1000s of people who will discuss. Removing these extra things will surely help . When something that’s halal becomes hard to achieve people choose the short cut . Zina is spreading because our parents and society is making marriage harder than it should be.

Good evening

Do you wanna drink with me?
