How to use Barkat

From profile to Nikah.

A simple walkthrough of Barkat - Create your profile, send proposals, match, chat, and involve family when you are ready.

Step 01

Create your profile

Sign in and complete onboarding. Every profile is manually reviewed before it goes live — so families meet real people, not empty listings.

Six short steps: basic info, personal details, education & profession, photos, verification, then review & submit.
Add your university, city, and values so Alma Mater search works well for you.
Upload Photo ID, degree, and profession docs where asked — verification builds trust from day one.

Step 02

Open Search Rishtey to browse recommendations. Use Alma Mater and other filters to find someone who shares your campus and values.

Filter by alma mater (AMU, Jamia, IIT, JNU, AIIMS, DU, and more), plus age, city, and profession.
Switch between Suggestions and Nearby when you want a tighter local search.
Open a profile to see education, profession, community, and bio before you act.

Step 03

When a profile feels right, send a proposal from Discover. Photos and contact stay under your control until both sides are ready.

Tap the heart (Send Proposal) on a profile you want to pursue — you get a limited number of proposals.
Mark Incompatible to skip, or Request Contact when you are ready for a call with family involved.
Serious intent only — Barkat is for nikah, not dating.

Step 04

A match happens when interest is mutual. Then you can message with clarity and move toward family involvement.

Step 05

After a match, open Messages to talk with dignity. Keep conversations purposeful and involve family when nikah feels close.

Step 06

Barkat is built for families. Add family background on your profile and use guardian mode so parents or guardians can guide the journey.
