The Stages

Nikkah Right is built around three stages of connection inspired by Islamic values: affection (mawaddah), mercy (rahmah), and tranquility (sakeenah).

These stages are not rules or timelines.
Begin wherever your hearts feel ready. Each deck can be used on its own, in any order, and at your own pace.

Mawaddah Beginnings

Your First Spark

Designed to help couples move beyond surface-level conversation and begin truly getting to know one another.

This stage encourages meaningful dialogue around values, expectations, communication styles, and compatibility, without pressure or rushing intimacy.

Mawaddah Beginnings isn’t about interrogating or fast-tracking connection. It’s about creating space for sincerity, so both people can show up authentically and decide, with clarity, whether their paths align.

Best for:

• Newly met or engaged couples

• Those getting to know one another with marriage in mind

• Long-distance or family-aware introductions

Goal:
Clarity, sincerity, and comfort having deeper conversations early on.

Rahmah Foundations

Feeding the Flame

Focused on mercy, patience, and communication, the qualities that sustain marriage as real life begins.

This stage helps couples navigate differences, strengthen understanding, and build healthier communication habits.

Best for:

• Newly married couples

• Couples adjusting to shared routines

• Those wanting to improve communication

Goal:
Emotional safety, compassion, and stronger connection through everyday challenges.

Rahmah is not passive. It is practiced. This stage helps couples learn how to extend mercy not only in moments of ease, but especially when it’s needed most.

Sakeenah is not the absence of struggle. It is the calm that grows when two people continue choosing one another with intention.

Sakeenah Bond

Your Eternal Warmth

Created for established marriages seeking reflection, renewal, and emotional closeness.

This stage invites couples to slow down, reconnect, and rediscover tranquility through presence and appreciation.

Best for:

• Long-term marriages

• Couples feeling emotionally distant

• Partners seeking renewal, not repair

Goal:
Tranquility, gratitude, and deeper companionship through time.
