Marriage as your people know it

The matchmaker your people always had.

You were never meant to do this alone. A few introductions at a time — each chosen, each explained, everyone verified before they reach you. Wherever life has taken you, there is a heart searching for you too.

Why Amanina

The thinking behind Amanina

Most apps optimize for endless swiping. We built Amanina around a different question: what would it take for two families to trust an introduction?

Introductions with a reasonA few chosen introductions at a time — the reasoning shown, never a black box.
Everyone's a real personWe verify every member before they're introduced to you.
Match four sides, not twoBring your family in — the two households are read against each other as peers.

Intentional by design

No endless swiping, no gamified streaks. A few considered introductions at a time — each one made for a reason you can read.

Compatibility, considered with care

We look at values, faith and practice, family rhythm, and life direction — weighed in full, and guided by the preferences you set — and we always show you the reasoning. Your information stays private and secure. Never a black box.

Family-honoring, never family-excluding

Built for the way our communities actually decide: mothers, fathers, and trusted elders are welcomed into the journey — at the pace you choose.

Verified and guarded

We verify members are real people — no bots, no fake profiles. Privacy is engineered in from the start: your data is encrypted and never sold.

Your home is waiting, wherever you are.

What actually arrives

Every introduction arrives with its reasoning.

Not a score out of a hundred. Four sections, written in plain words, before either of you decides anything — and the whole read is free, on every match.

What caught our eye

The thing that made us stop on the two of you — said first, and said plainly.

Why you two

Where your lives actually line up: faith and how you keep it, what you value, your sense of family, the direction you are each walking.

Worth asking

The one question we would put first if we were sitting across from them. A place to start, never the answer.

Something to watch for

The friction — named on day one, instead of found in month six. A match that hides the hard part isn't being kind. It's being quiet.

“Strong fit”, never 87%

You get a band, not a number. A decimal we cannot stand behind is false precision, and false precision is a promise we cannot keep.

Photos stay blurred until interest is mutual

Never one-sided — and either of you can raise the shield again, at any moment, without explaining why.

Some mornings, nobody

When there is no one worth introducing, we say so and the day is designed for it. The queue is never padded to keep you scrolling.

Safe by default

Real people, guarded with care.

Verified members

Every member is confirmed as a real person — and nobody can message you until they have cleared a government-ID check. No bots.

Watched-over conversations

Profile photos are reviewed and chats are monitored for scams and abuse.

You stay in control

Block or report anyone in a tap. Your data is encrypted and never sold.

Get to know Amanina

What is Amanina?

Amanina is a matchmaking and matrimony app for people who marry with intention — faith honoured as they hold it, family welcomed at their pace. Arab, African and Central Asian families are all at home here, Muslim and Christian-Arab alike, alongside the Jewish, Druze and secular worlds woven into them. It is a web app, available worldwide. Instead of endless swiping, members receive a few considered introductions at a time, each with the reasoning shown openly. The thinking is done for you — your faith and how you live it, your values, your family, the life you're building — so you're met as a whole person, on the terms you set, never a face in a grid. Family can be welcomed into the process at the member's pace. You don't have to be Arab to join — the door is open to anyone who wants marriage this way, and where you come from never counts against you. Amanina is operated by Mama Hala Consulting Group in Ottawa, Canada, and launched in 2026.

How does it work?

  1. Set your own preferences and your Marriage Compass — what you believe, how you live, and what you're looking for.
  2. We weigh who you actually are — faith, values, family, the life you want — and bring a few introductions that genuinely fit, each with the reasoning shown openly. No feed to scroll, no crowd to sift.
  3. Connect at your own pace, with family welcomed into the process whenever you wish.

Common questions

Is Amanina free?

Yes. Everything is free during the soft launch — create a profile, get verified, receive introductions, and read in full why the two of you fit. Nothing is held back behind a payment today, and we will say so plainly here before that ever changes.

Is Amanina only for Muslims?

No. Amanina is for anyone marrying with intention — Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Druze, and secular alike. Arab, African and Central Asian families are all welcome. Faith and tradition are honoured for every member, whatever their background.

Do I have to be Arab to join?

No. Who Amanina is for is decided by how you marry, not by where you are from. It is built from Arab tradition — considered introductions, faith honoured, family welcomed at your pace — and its door is open to anyone who wants marriage that way, with Arab, African and Central Asian families all at home in it. Many members belong to two worlds at once; you choose how much of yours to share, and where you come from never counts against you.

How is Amanina different from other dating or matrimony apps?

Amanina is built for intentional marriage, not endless swiping. Instead of a feed of strangers, members wake to a few carefully prepared introductions, and the reasoning behind each one is shown openly. Family features can bring elders and the wali into the process, with consent.

Is Amanina an app store app?

Amanina is a web app you install straight from your browser — Safari on iPhone or Chrome on Android — with no App Store or Play Store needed. Once installed it behaves like any other app on your home screen.

How does Amanina verify people?

Every member is verified as a real person before they can be introduced to others — no bots and no fabricated profiles. Verification is a baseline for everyone, not a premium feature.

Who is behind Amanina?

Amanina is operated by Mama Hala Consulting Group, led by Mama Hala, a Family Consultant, and built by EiGENRA. It launched in Canada in 2026.

Can my family be part of the process?

Yes. Amanina includes family features that let elders and the wali take part in introductions, with the member's consent — keeping the process respectful of how many families approach marriage.

How are matches chosen?

We look at the substance a marriage is built on — your faith and how you practise it, your values, your sense of family, the life you're moving toward, where children fit. Faith and children are firm lines; everything else is a leaning, not a wall — so someone reaches you because they genuinely suit you, not because you both cleared a checklist. And every introduction arrives with a plain-words reason the two of you fit, so you're never handed a name without knowing why.

Do I choose what I'm looking for in a match?

Completely. You draw your own Marriage Compass — your faith and practice, your values, the family and life you want to build — marking what you hold dear and where you're open. Those choices steer who we bring you, and you can redraw them as you learn what matters most. Family can be welcomed into the conversation at your pace — without ever handing anyone else the pen.

For mothers & families

In our families, love goes looking first.

Searching for your son or daughter? Begin it yourself — and leave the choice entirely in their hands.

You open the door

Write a private introduction in your own words — who they are, what makes your family proud. We invite your son or daughter with warmth, and they read every word before deciding.

Their word decides

Nothing is created and nothing begins until they say yes themselves. Their journey stays theirs — you never see their conversations.

Families meet first

With your child's blessing, speak family to family in the Majlis before the two of them ever exchange a word — the way it has always been done.

Begin for your family
