Default Your marriage document profiling (advertising yourself) to potential spouses.
Salaam

So you are looking for a spouse and you need to create your profile document (advertising yourself) to pass on to friends and family whom you think can help find you a nice husband/wife.

I would like to know the name the document you are required to create which is sometimes accompanied by your photos.

  • What do you call it?
  • What do you think the appropriate name for it is?
  • What do you hear most of the time for what it is called?

There will be other replies to this thread, please do not be swayed or influenced by the responses in anyway. I would like an unbiased answer of what 'YOU' think it is most commonly called or known as.

Answering the above three points would be of great help.

Thank you!

Haven't you seen nature? Peacocks dance to attract the best mate of the bunch.


In our mutaharrik desi culture its called "biodata".


Its near impossible to escape it if that's what you're trying to do. The best you can do is get advices from seasoned brothers. Maybe the bros section would be a more suitable place to discuss such, uhh, sensitive topics. Some bros have reached very high levels and have inkeyshaaf of some deep secrets pertaining to this line. Allah tala ummat ko neyk aur eyk karey, ameen. Wallahu alam bis sawaab.

In our language you can also call it a "passport"

After your marriage you will remember Fusus.

Whoa whoa wait a second - people do this ?? They make a "portfolio" that they distribute??

is it like a bussiness card?

Can one rent bilboard space and plaster oneself up there overlooking a highway with a cheesy smile and suit saying:

'four positions currently open to be this guys wife*, who will be the lucky ladies**? - call me, Aurangzeb, for more information***"

*- Person in picture does not represent average appearance of Aurangzeb

** - results not typical, ladies who marry aurangzeb may or may not feel lucky

*** - Not vald to residents of Tenesee, Oklahoma, and North Dakota

Hi FususAlHikam, i was merely asking the question for research purposes. This really isn't a sensitive topic as i am looking forward to answers from both br's/sr's from different backgrounds and what everybody's thought on this was.

Thank you for your answer.

Thank you for taking your time out in replying to my thread. Infact this was a serious thread and i was looking forward to serious answers.

Let me correct you, they dont just 'make a portfolio to distribute', brief and basic information is written down onto a piece of paper which is kept by the parents/uncles/aunties. If they find a suitable spouse they exchange that information on behalf of their son/daughter/niece/nephew.

It's a process typically used in arranged marriages.


If you don't have a valid contribution to make towards what this thread is asking of you, then please don't post at all.

In our Indian culture, it is most commonly called a biodata or a CV. It is usually accompanied by a single photo. It includes basic details about the person and his or her family and expectations from the spouse if any.
