Our process

Respectful, thoughtful,
held in confidence.

You’re working with a real person who has done this many times before; we introduce one match at a time.

Introductions, one at a time

A single introduction is its own act of care.

We don’t send out profile blasts, and we don’t offer you a queue to scroll through. Each introduction is considered carefully.

This is a different pace than the apps. For most people, it ends up feeling like a relief.

i.

Protects your heart from overwhelm and the habit of comparison.

ii.

Encourages real discernment instead of quick judgment and endless swiping.

iii.

Honors adab, privacy, and sincerity of intention.

iv.

Leaves space for istikhara and counsel from trusted family, elders, and friends.

Membership intake

Becoming a member.

Three steps. Each one reviewed by a real person, not a bot.

A six-month membership is activated once the first two steps are complete.

i

Submit your profile

Fill out the submission form with the basics: your life, your values, what you’re hoping for in a spouse.

We’ll read it ourselves and decide if you’re a good fit.

ii

Confirmation and commitments

If you’re confirmed, we’ll send you an email asking you to:

  • Pay your membership fee
  • Agree to our Adab Code (Code of Behavior)
  • Complete a fuller profile with more detailed questions
  • Upload additional photos
  • Verify your ID

Once that’s done, your six-month membership is active.

iii

Six months of matchmaking

We’ll get in touch as we find potential matches.

If you’re a woman, you’ll see a man’s profile first, and you decide whether yours gets shared with him.

Profile sharing

How your profile appears to potential matches.

When we share your profile, we share only what’s needed for two people to decide whether they’re interested.

  • i.
    The woman sees the man’s profile first Her profile is only shared with him after she agrees to proceed.
  • ii.
    First initials only Full names aren’t used until both of you agree to connect by phone or video.
  • iii.
    Basic info first The initial profile is enough to gauge mutual interest. Fuller details follow as you get to know each other.
  • iv.
    Never public Your profile is only seen as part of a specific introduction. It’s not browsable or searchable by anyone outside the Rahma Connections team.
Sample profile a woman would see: R., 39, works in non-profit, graduate degree, English and Urdu speaker, South Asian, Muslim, divorced, with two children.
What the woman sees first: the man’s profile.
Sample profile a man would see: F., 35, software engineer, graduate degree, English and Arabic speaker, multiracial, Muslim, divorced, no children.
If she agrees, the man then sees her profile.

These are sample profiles created for demonstration only. Names, photos, and details are illustrative and were generated to protect the privacy of our real clients.

If it’s not a match

What we ask of you.

Not every introduction works out. That’s part of the process, not a sign of failure.

  • i.

    Be direct

    A brief, kind decline is enough. No long explanations needed.

  • ii.

    Don’t ghost

    Letting things drift hurts the other person, and it doesn’t help you either.

  • iii.

    Share a quick reflection

    A short note from you helps us match you better next time.
