modestsister 0 Posted February 21, 2007 Salam Alaikum Brothers and Sisters, I hope you all don't mind me posting this here, I mean I hope this is the right thread to ask for help. I run a Free Muslim Matrimonial site. I am working on a new design however am having a difficult time finding pictures that I can use. I do not allow photos of women without hijab and to find a picture online that is not copy written of a sister with hijab is vary difficult, even more so to find a photo of a husband and wife couple. So, with that said I am asking for your help. If you have a photo of yourself or you and your spouse and would be willing to let me use it in my new homepage design then please do email it to me. What I am looking for in pictures is: smiling faces, women with hijab and proper dress (no tight clothing or hair/neck/ears showing), must be 18 years of age or older, must give me permission to use photo (if couple then please make sure you have your spouses permission as well). Sense my site is free I can not afford to pay however you will have comfort in knowing that I am making efforts with this site to help Muslims find a spouse in a good way. A lot of Muslims no longer live in tight communities to where they can find a good spouse so many are flocking to the net and signing up to sites such as match(contact admin if its a beneficial link), yahoo personals and many more non Muslim "dating" sites, as well as Muslim sites that allow non hijab photos, photos of women showing cleavage as well as allowing members to use their site to find dates. On my site I work hard to kick of date seekers and those looking to play games, I do not allow photos that do not meat Islamic dress standards as well as I am always looking to help others thru my site. I do have plans to start adding info about marriage in Islam, articles to help educate and so much more to help my site to guide others on the right path. If you would like to help out with suggestions, advice or photos then please do email me at meetmuslimsingl(contact admin if its a beneficial link)]support[at]meetmuslimsingles(contact admin if its a beneficial link) To see the listing in the forums for my site you can find it at: (you are not allowed to post links yet)"you can't post links until you reach 50 posts_you are not allowed to post links yetgawaher(contact admin if its a beneficial link)/index.php?showtopic=37547"]you can't post links until you reach 50 posts_you are not allowed to post links yetgawaher(contact admin if its a beneficial link)/index.php?showtopic=37547[/url] Thanks so much, Sister Heather Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ummammaar 0 Posted March 31, 2008 :sl: With due respect, the pictures do not seem like a good idea as it can still and these things still lead to fitnah. Allahu alam. Ukhti, did you do istikhara about this? Did you speak to a shaykh about this in detail? Then, have them check your work? What did they say? You should make sure that people are not able to contact each other and no ones personal contact information is posted. That it all goes through you. Are you married yourself? If so, is your spouse involved? What does he think about this whole project? Do you think this is a good idea? Sometimes people start having feelings for each other or even one way, even where the helper(s) are married. You have to make sure that sisters involve their wali's in this whole thing. Does their wali even approve of looking for a spouse for themselves? And that too, online? How can you make sure someone is really their wali and not a male friend tricking you to help them talk to the guys themselves? How can you make sure the person isn't pretending to be their wali themselves? These are all the reasons you may want to consider doing something like this in real life, rather than having a database and this whole process of connecting people to their potentials online. It is too much work and you can never be sure. It is a big responsibility. A big risk, that I don't think a muslim should take. Allahu alam. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
