Safety on Halal Matching

Marriage is a serious matter, and so is your safety. Here is exactly how the platform protects you, and how to protect yourself.

What we do

  • Every profile is checked by a person before it is shown to anyone. Duplicate, fake or under-18 accounts are removed.
  • A Respected Imam is present in every conversation. Rooms are not private chats. Both sides are told this before they pay.
  • Wali seat. A sister can add her wali or a family member to any room at any time.
  • No contact details until both sides agree. Phone numbers, email addresses and links are blocked automatically until the Respected Imam marks the room as ready.
  • Report and block on every profile and every message. Reports are reviewed by our moderators, and serious matters are handled under our Online Safety Act procedures.
  • 18 and over only. We record how this is enforced and review it regularly.

What you should do

  • Never send money, gift cards or bank details to anyone you meet online, whatever the story.
  • Keep the conversation on the platform until the Respected Imam confirms both families are ready.
  • Meet first with family present, in a public place, in daylight.
  • Be honest in your profile and expect honesty back. Verify what matters before any commitment.
  • If something feels wrong, it probably is. Report it and we will look.

How to report

Use the report button on the profile or message, or email safety@london-muslims.uk. Tell us what happened and when. We aim to respond within 48 hours and sooner for anything urgent. If you are in immediate danger, call 999.
