وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُم مِّنْ أَنفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا لِّتَسْكُنُوا إِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُم مَّوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً

“And among His signs is that He created for you spouses from among yourselves, so that you may find tranquillity in them; and He placed between you affection and mercy.”

Surah Ar-Rum, 30:21

Written by Allah, lived by us

Our Story

  1. 🏙️

    Two Punekars

    Both born and raised in Pune (same city, same Irani chai, same monsoon drives), yet our paths hadn't crossed. Allah had His own timing.

  2. 🤲

    The Rishta

    Our families met, duas were made, and between a cup of chai and a plate of Shrewsbury biscuits, something just clicked. (Placeholder: add your real story here!)

  3. ⚗️

    The Right Chemistry

    A techie who loves the open road and a chemist who loves to travel. Turns out the reaction was always meant to be. No catalyst required.

  4. 💍

    Qubool Hai

    On 17 December 2026, In Sha Allah, we begin our journey together, and we'd love for you to be there.
