Search for a service 

Whether you’re planning a wedding, looking for a Qu’ran teacher or wanting guidance for writing your will, finding a qualified Imam or Muslim service provider has never been easier.

Step 1: Search For A Provider

Find the search bar at the top of the ImamConnect website and type in exactly the kind of service you’re looking for. Your search can be as broad or specific as you like. So, perhaps you are searching for a Qur’an teacher, you can look for “Quran Teacher” or “Quran Teacher For Kids”. Click here and type in your search at the top of the page.

Perhaps you don’t yet know the particulars of what you need, in which case you can also easily browse through the ImamConnect categories to see what may be a good fit. For that Qu’ran teacher, you can browse to 'Search For Servicesand then use the search filter to narrow down your options by category.

Browse through the search results to read personal profiles, details on rates, qualifications, and reviews. Choose the one which suits your needs best.

Step 2: Contact Your Provider

You will find the link to message your provider at the top of their bio, underneath their main photograph. Before messaging, you’ll be asked to create an account (if you haven’t done so already) in order to access our safe messaging platform.

Message your chosen service provider with any questions or requirements you have and also to check with their availability.

Once you are happy with your chosen provider and you have agreed your dates/times, you’re ready to book!

Step 3: Book & Pay Online

From your chosen providers profile page, click the “Book Now” button. You will be prompted to proceed to payment via our secure network. Your provider will then accept the booking and you are good to go.

ImamConnect accepts payment via debit card, interac, credit card, Paypal. Remember, funds will be held securely until you confirm the successful completion of your service by clicking “order complete” from your inbox.

Step 4: Enjoy Your Service & Review your order

Sit back and relax knowing that your service provider will deliver according to your agreement on the date and time booked. Feel free to be fully present knowing that all details have been taken care of and you won’t need to worry about any surprises or even payment on the day.

Let us know how happy you were with your chosen service provider. Were they easy to work with? Did they deliver what you asked?  Would you use them again or recommend them to others? Make sure to leave a review after you complete your order.
