Arranged marriages are most common in South Asian, Middle Eastern, and some African cultures, particularly in countries like India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, Iran, and parts of the Arab world. They also exist in various Muslim communities around the world, including diaspora communities in the UK, USA, Canada, and Australia.

In these cultures, families often play a key role in introducing potential partners, ensuring compatibility in terms of religion, culture, and family background. However, Islam emphasizes that both individuals must freely consent to the marriage—arranged does not mean forced.

For Muslims who prefer to have more say in choosing their partner while keeping Islamic values intact, platforms like Salaam Soulmate offer a modern, faith-based alternative. It allows individuals to meet serious, like-minded Muslims in a respectful and halal environment, giving you control over your marriage decisions.
