“وَمِنۡ ءَایَـٰتِهِۦۤ أَنۡ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنۡ أَنفُسِكُمۡ أَزۡوَ ٰجࣰا لِّتَسۡكُنُوۤا۟ إِلَیۡهَا وَجَعَلَ بَیۡنَكُم مَّوَدَّةࣰ وَرَحۡمَةًۚ إِنَّ فِی ذَ ٰلِكَ لَءَایَـٰتࣲ لِّقَوۡمࣲ یَتَفَكَّرُونَ”

Seeking a spouse can be a daunting task, especially with all of the resources, apps, and websites that are available. We at Dar Al-Hijrah Islamic Center have created a list of local resources to help make that task less intimidating.
In addition to these resources, feel free to make an appointment with the imam to discuss the methods and Islamic rulings on how to approach the subject and/or prospective spouse.
We at Dar Al Hijrah Islamic Center are sorry for your loss and hope to help expedite the burial process for your family and remind ourselves of the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ)
“Whoever attends a funeral and attends the prayer will receive a qirat worth of reward and whoever attends the burial, he will receive two.” i.e. one qirat = great mountains worth
