About BeyondChai
Beyond the cup of chai: a modern path to a meaningful marriage
Personal matchmaking for Muslims across North America – rooted in tradition, guided by people who care.
Our story
Introductions used to happen over chai, with families in the room.
An introduction or even an agreement traditionally have happened over a “chai” attended by families in places such as South Asia. But because we are dispersed in various regions of America and the West, many Muslims want to have the opportunities to get to know one another before forming a lifelong partnership. Moreover, Racism, xenophobia and class division are a reality of the conversation that plays out when it comes to finding a spouse. This can be challenging, hence Beyond Chai!
Beyond Chai takes on a combination of new and traditional approach to find suitable matches for single Muslims and hope to offer opportunities for social interaction through events and projects. Moreover and importantly, we are building platforms and elevating marriage related conversations to new levels by working with our marriage counselors, community leaders, Imams, and parents & families. In hopes of establishing lifelong and happier marriages. Beyond Chai offers pre-marital counseling and coaching to participants of our programs.
