Getting married is tough for the vast majority of Muslims in the West. We know because we’ve been there. My (Zaid) journey spanned nearly nine years. It was filled with rejections and self-doubt. While I (Hiba) didn't know there was a journey to be on in the first place. After we got married we decided to create something different to help single Muslims complete their deen. And so our matchmaking service Halal Match was born.

After a few years of interviewing singles, a friend suggested we journal our stories. We tweaked that idea and turned it into a podcast. In ‘Diary of a Matchmaker’ we’ll take you through this unfamiliar world of matchmaking. We’ll share our stories, experiences, and much more. So say Bismillah and tune in.

  • What If My Future Spouse Flips After Marriage?
    Jan 16 2026

    Got that quiet fear of “what if they change after marriage?” You’re not paranoid, and you’re definitely not alone. In this episode, we talk honestly about why some people seem to “flip” after marriage, and how that moment usually isn’t sudden at all… we just didn’t know what to look for.

    We unpack the pressure to perform during courtship, the ways faith language can be misused to avoid accountability, and how character shows up long before a ring does. You’ll hear stories, patterns, and hard-earned lessons from years of community work, all shared without fear-mongering or cynicism.

  • Marrying Potential vs Marrying Stability
    Jan 9 2026

    He has big ideas. Side hustles. Business dreams. And you’re sitting there thinking: Is this vision… or a red flag?

    Today we get real about marrying someone with entrepreneurial goals, especially in today’s economy. We talk stability vs potential, faith vs fantasy, and why “just trust me” isn’t a plan. I (Hiba) share a story about how my ex's 'aspirations' cost me all my savings one day!

    We unpack the questions that reveal whether a dream is grounded or risky, how support can turn into resentment, and what real partnership actually looks like when money isn’t guaranteed yet.

    If you're considering someone with business aspirations or you yourself is one, click here to download this episode's practical checklist.

  • To Relocate or Not To Relocate? That is The Question!
    Jan 2 2026

    Moving for marriage can feel like stepping off a cliff with a parachute you packed in the dark. In this episode, we talk honestly about what that leap actually takes, beyond romance and optimism. Hiba shares her journey from Palestine to Canada and what she’d do differently now, while we unpack the questions single Muslims need to ask before relocating.

    We get real about red indicators like spiritualized pressure and vague promises, and green ones like clear plans, financial transparency, and real community support. We also talk careers, power dynamics, and the emotional cost of starting over. Faith matters, but so does tying your camel. If relocation is on your radar, this conversation might change how you think about it.
