Salamun Alaikum dear sisters and brothers,

We are excited to announce a new round of matchmaking event! As always, this initiative is aimed at fostering meaningful and respectful connections that hopefully lead to marriages within our community.

We welcome everyone to participate, whether a newcomer or a frequenter of the sub!

Please keep in mind:

– Be respectful towards your match (and us!): We want to create a positive, respectful experience for everyone. If you are not interested in someone’s profile after being matched, please inform them politely. You don’t need to explain why, just a simple informing message suffices. Also, if you change your mind and don't want to continue in the event, please inform us ASAP. Ghosting is disrespectful and unacceptable.

– Be precise about preferences: To avoid being matched with someone you’re not interested in, please be very clear and specific in your profile and your personal preferences. The more precise you are about your dealbreakers and preferences, the better we can match you with someone who aligns with your values and expectations. Don’t be shy. Honesty is crucial.

– Communicate with kindness: Always approach your matches with kindness and understanding. Even if you don’t feel the connection, remember that we are all trying to find someone who is right for us. Let’s keep this process respectful and dignified.

Application deadline:
 
The submission phase will run from now until 11 Oct. midnight (UTC). No application will be accepted after the deadline.

Process and how to apply:

(1) Fill out the submission template: Please submit your profile via the provided template (pinned comment). We need your basic details and preferences. Be thorough when listing what you do and don’t want in a partner. Accuracy is important to ensure we make the best possible matches for you.

(2) Submit via DM: Brothers submit their filled template via DM to the male mod (u/P3CU1i4R), sisters to female mod (u/morpholinoo). The last day to submit your profile is 11 Oct. (UTC), so make sure to apply before the deadline.

(3) We match: Once the submissions are closed, we will carefully review the profiles and match based on compatibility, preferences, and dealbreakers. Matched individuals (both sides) will be contacted by us with the username and profile of their match.

(4) End of the event: We will announce the end of matching by a post on the sub. Note: when the event has ended and you (a participant) haven’t received any message from us, it means we haven’t found a match for you.

(5) Feedback: We sincerely ask the participants to give us feedback on any aspects of the event. It will help us immensely in improving the event for future rounds, Insha’Allah.

If you have any questions or need further clarification, feel free to reach out to us, the mods. Your participation and feedback are highly valued, and we look forward to helping you in your journey to find a meaningful connection.

May Allah (swt) bless you all with the best outcomes, and guide us towards what is best for us in this world and the Hereafter. Kindly keep us in your Duas.

Salamun Alaikum brothers and sisters,

Due to a number of reports and unwarranted comments on people's profiles, we were thinking of closing the comments on these posts.

We feel the good comments (wishing the person find his/her match, or "DMd you") are not really necessary, and the bad comments are of course hurtful. So, why even have comments?

But wanted to ask you: Do you want the comments under profile posts closed or left open? Please vote. Thank you!

I've recently encountered an increase in the number of reports, especially on comments. Upon closer look, though, I found the majority of these reports baseless. Probably out of heated disagreement or anger at someone's comment.

Please don't! Use downvotes if you disagree with or dislike a comment. Not everyone hates you, or hate you based on your gender or identity! Not every comment about an Islamic law is giving out rulings. Not every comment that's against you is a rude comment.

Please bear in mind that the more false flags, the more difficult for us the mods to deal with actually problematic posts/comments.

So, next time you are tempted to just tap Report, take a moment, calm down, then see (objectively) if the comment is violating the rules.

Please keep us in your Duas.
