Female Profile #1⤵️

Place of birth and upbringing:
Born in Saudi Arabia and raised in Toronto, Canada from the age of 3.
Legal status:
Canadian citizen
City of residence:
Toronto, Ontario
Background & Ethnicity:
Indian / South Asian
Age:
29
Height:
5’3”
Briefly describe your personality:
I am warm, thoughtful, fun-loving, and generally easy-going. I cherish laughter and creating meaningful memories with the people I care about. I can be a little quiet when I first meet someone, but once I’m comfortable, I’m much more talkative.
I have a playful competitive streak and am naturally curious. I genuinely enjoy learning and can easily get drawn into an interesting topic or conversation. I have an alarming amount of random information stored in my head and am always happy to be someone’s trivia teammate.
As a child, after a few ballet and gymnastics classes, I became absolutely convinced I was destined for Olympic greatness. That dream lasted until I was about six years old, but I still admire the confidence my younger self had.
How others would describe you:
Kind, honest, supportive, dependable, witty, and someone who genuinely shows up for the people she cares about. My friends would probably also describe me as a very positive person, and someone who is most likely to remember a completely random fun fact and somehow find a reason to bring it up months later.
Attire/dress:
I observe hijab (no niqab) and dress modestly in loose, full-length clothing.
Hobbies:
Reading, writing, walking, Pilates, documentaries, board games and trivia, history, exploring different cultures and languages, and experimenting with cooking. I’m equally happy going out and exploring somewhere new or having a quiet evening with a book and a cup of tea.
Religious history:
I am a practicing Muslimah who strives to follow the Qur’an and Sunnah to the best of my ability. Alhamdulillah, I pray my five daily prayers, fast Ramadan, observe hijab, maintain a halal lifestyle, and regularly attend Islamic classes. I am currently studying Qur’anic Arabic and continue trying to increase my Islamic knowledge so I can strengthen my own foundation and, In shaa Allah, help build a home and raise future children upon Islam. I care deeply about Islam, self-improvement, and surrounding myself with good company, and I hope to share that desire for continued growth with my future spouse.
Scholars & speakers, you listen to:
I primarily attend weekly online Islamic classes at Masjid Istiqama and benefit from the teachers and guest speakers there. I am still learning and continuing to build my Islamic knowledge, so I don’t follow any one scholar or speaker exclusively.
Education:
Bachelor of Arts in History and English and Bachelor of Education.
Occupation:
Secondary school teacher
Marital status:
Single, never married
Previous children:
None. In shaa Allah, I would love to have children in the future. Family is important to me, and I value building a home rooted in warmth, mercy, faith, and emotional safety.
Does your wali have knowledge of you seeking marriage:
Yes. My father and brother are aware and supportive, as is the rest of my family, Alhamdulillah.
Languages spoken:
English fluently, beginner-level Urdu/Hindi, and currently learning Arabic. I have also studied French and Spanish but must admit I’ve gotten rather rusty.
Briefly describe what you are looking for in a potential spouse:
I am seeking a practicing Sunni Muslim who strives to live according to the Qur’an and Sunnah and who fears Allah in both his public and private life.
I value a marriage built on mutual respect, kindness, emotional safety, companionship, and friendship. Emotional maturity, patience, responsibility, honesty, and consistency matter deeply to me. I value a man who leads with gentleness, communicates openly, takes accountability, and understands that leadership includes emotional presence, compassion, and care.
In shaa Allah, I hope to build a warm and peaceful home centered around Islamic values, where both spouses support one another in growing closer to Allah while enjoying life together and navigating its joys and challenges as a team.
I am open to different ethnic backgrounds and reverts, as shared values, sincerity, compatibility, and good character matter far more to me than cultural similarities.
I am only seeking a monogamous marriage.
Expectations for potential spouse:
Someone who maintains his five daily prayers to the best of his ability, consistently attends Jumu’ah, fasts Ramadan, earns a halal income, and sincerely tries to stay away from haram. Good character, emotional maturity, honesty, patience, responsibility, financial stability, and healthy communication are important to me. I am looking for someone who is prepared to take his responsibilities as a husband and, In shaa Allah, future father seriously while still being affectionate, playful, and able to enjoy life together.
Open to reverts:
Yes. I am open to sincere practicing reverts/converts, and my family is welcoming as well.
Open to divorcee:
Potentially, depending on the circumstances and overall compatibility.
Open to those with children:
Preferably no.
Preferred age bracket of potential spouse:
27–39, with some flexibility for strong compatibility.
Possible countries you are willing to relocate to:
Ideally, I would like to remain in Ontario/the GTA during the early years of marriage. However, I am open to discussing relocation elsewhere in Canada or internationally in the future, including Saudi Arabia or elsewhere, if it aligns with our shared goals and circumstances.

Scarborough

Background & Ethnicity:
I am originally from a Memon background. I have a few courses left to finish bachelors degree and work full time and I make enough to be able to take care of myself and one other person it would be a very simple lifestyle at least for a couple years. I live on my own and my family is in uk. I can’t live there because we moved there when I was over 18 so I couldn’t get a permanent visa as my dad’s dependant.

I cook for myself sometimes.
I have travelled and have done many road trips and I enjoyed those.

Religious history:
My story is not very interesting or special. Alhamdulillah the family always stayed connected with the masjid the Muslim community and Quran classes and so did the extended family so Islam was a big part of my entire life. Not practicing would have been more taboo. However because of that the religion became a habit and trying to get answers for my questions and being exposed to fitan in the university and public school I became more intentional about the deen and try to follow the sunnah according to the application of the sahaba and understanding of the praised generations.

Male Profile #5 ⤵️

Place of birth, upbringing, background? 
Born and raised in Pakistan. Came to canada to do a degree in CS. Have graduated now and working Alhamdulilah. 

Age? 
22 (June 14,2004)

Briefly describe yourself? 

  Someone who tries his best to be on the manhaj of the salaf. I became practicing around 2-3 years ago الحمد لله  . I completed my high school studies in Pakistan and came here to pursue a degree in Computer Science. 

I have memorized Juz 30 and juz 29 and my goal is to continue memorizing until I become a hafidh of the Qur’an, in sha Allah. Alongside that, I also memorize some mutoon talib al-ilm, and try to strengthen my foundations in Arabic. I’ve studied Arabic for about 1–2 years while I’m not yet fluent, I’m improving every day and plan to keep going until I reach proficiency, in sha Allah.

As for other uloom, I try to study kutub regularly and attend duroos as much as I can.

I have recently graduated and I am working in an IT company full time. I don’t mind sharing details regarding this if we proceed bi idhnillah. 

I would describe myself as an understanding person who tries not to let ego get in the way of my judgments. If I make a mistake, I want to be corrected, and I try to extend that same understanding toward others. I actively try to improve my character to match that of the Prophet (ﷺ) with patience and humility and I ask Allah to help me grow in those qualities everyday. 

I’m far from perfect, but I try my best to stay disciplined and keep seeking knowledge while maintaining balance in all aspects of life. In marriage, I hope for us to be a source of ease and sakeenah for each other helping one another grow, stay firm upon the truth, and move together getting closer to Allah az wa jal.

(A couple of honest close friends verified this to be the truth and not exaggerated / lies in anyway  و كفى بالله شهيدا)

Where do you currently live (city)? 
Milton, Ontario 

Previously married? 
No

Children? If yes, how many and age? 
No


Does your wali (Legal Islamic guardian, father, uncle, brother, etc) have knowledge of you seeking marriage? (For sisters)
N/A

What languages do you speak? 
English and urdu. Learning arabic since 1-2 years. Developing further understanding slowly. 

Briefly describe what are you looking for in a potential spouse? 

I’m looking for someone who is upon the path of the Salaf taking from the major scholars such as Shaykh Ibn Baz, Shaykh Ibn Uthaymeen, Shaykh Fawzan, and others and who is serious about seeking knowledge and practicing it.

Culture does not matter to me, however, I would prefer someone of Pakistani background or one that can speak urdu/hindi, so it’s easier for both of our families to connect. I take the opinion that niqab is fard and is one of the non-negotiable’s for me.

I want someone who shares the same long-term vision to raise children who are upright in ilm, akhlaq, and adab, and who, in sha Allah, can grow to become students of knowledge or even ulama, becoming a means of sadaqah jariyah for us. That’s one of my biggest goals: to build a family centered around the Qur’an and Sunnah, dedicated to learning, practicing, and teaching the deen.

I don’t expect ‘perfection’ at all since i myself am far from it, just sincere effort. I look for someone who’s understanding, communicates well, and strives with me so that we can help each other grow and become a source of sakeenah and strength for one another, bi idhnillah.

Imam Ibn Jawzi رحمه الله said:

"And perhaps a child can come from of a marriage, who is the likes of As-shaafii and Ahmad bin Hanbal, so the marriage ends up being better than a thousand years of worship"

تَلبيسُ إبلِيس || ٢٦٣ 
[trans. Abu Huthayfah Sami]

Where do you currently reside? 
Milton 

What is the age bracket of the potential spouse you are willing to consider? (e.g. 20-35) 
Any around my age (22) but not 2+ years older. 

Are you willing to relocate to another city/country?
Yeah in sha Allah to a Muslim country, maybe even back to Pakistan
