Designed around intention, dignity, and accountability.

The product is designed for marriage, not casual dating. Profiles ask about marriage timeline, family, religious practice, and life direction. Curated introductions and one Salaam at a time are intended to reduce the entertainment dynamic of endless browsing.

No interface makes a process automatically halal. Conduct, honesty, conversation, family circumstances, and scholarly interpretation still matter. Maktub can create boundaries and prompts; users remain responsible for their choices.

Putting photos behind mutual interest is one way to reduce appearance-first judgment. Limiting the feed is another. Neither removes attraction from marriage decisions; the aim is to place it alongside character, faith, compatibility, and real-world accountability.

Respect also means rejecting harassment, pressure, deception, intimate content, and the casual circulation of another person’s profile or messages.

Maktub plans Wali Mode with different levels of participation. It is intended to make appropriate family or guardian involvement easier rather than treating it as an awkward workaround. Individual needs differ, including those of converts and people without a suitable family network.

Specific questions about Islamic law should be taken to a qualified scholar who understands the person’s school, circumstances, and local context. Product copy is not a fatwa or substitute for religious counsel.
