ニューヨーク・タイムズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (ニューヨーク・タイムズInstagram)「Muzz, a Muslim dating app, assists young Muslims in finding “the one.” Now, it’s taking its matchmaking on the road. Last week, about 250 Muslims gathered in a halal Italian restaurant in Brooklyn for a singles dating event hosted by Muzz. ‌Some people came to meet other people of a similar faith and cultural background; others said they came with no expectations. Topics of conversation included halal Thai food in New York (“Top Thai — we should go check it out,” one person said to another) and the difficulty of meeting new people while working remotely. Muzz was founded in 2011 by Shahzad Younas and has eight million users worldwide, according to the company. “The heart of the app is empowering young Muslims to find a partner in their own right, but doing it in a way that respects their faith, culture, traditions and family,” Younas told The New York Times. He aims to “embrace the quirks around Muslim marriage,” he said, which includes a “sweet spot” of familial involvement. At the event last week, Younas stood on top of a table in a corner and made a welcome announcement. Women had received a sheet of eight green stickers, and men had received a sheet of eight red stickers. To help make it easier for people to introduce themselves to others, he said, the stickers must be exchanged with people after a conversation — everyone’s goal is “to meet the one,” he said, adding “inshallah,” or God willing.
