Telegram groups and marriage offices in Iraq: what is the alternative?
Iraqis search for "Iraqi marriage Telegram group" and "marriage offices in Iraq". Groups post numbers and requests in front of unknown members, and some offices rely on an intermediary who charges for the introduction.
On Zawjni you write your own profile and choose who to contact, with no intermediary and no published number, because the site never asks for one. You can block or report any member, and our team reviews every report.
How is marriage registered in Iraq?
Marriage contracts are registered at the personal status court. A marriage concluded by a cleric outside the court needs later ratification in court so the wife's rights are protected and children can be registered.
An Iraqi contract usually sets a prompt mahr (muqaddam) and a deferred mahr (mu'akhkhar), which the families discuss after the introduction. Zawjni does not conclude marriages or take part in the agreement.
Before you write your profile
Set your sect on your profile, or choose "just Muslim" if you prefer not to specify, and state your governorate (Baghdad, Basra, Erbil, Mosul...). If you live in Europe, set whether you would relocate.
