Families are the building blocks of a successful society and families are formed through marriage in Islam. Your decision to marry is a spiritual covenant that is rooted in a commitment to one another. Like any community marriage is an occasion of great joy amongst the Muslims. The Islamic Society of Victoria facilitates the solemnisation of an Islamic contract of marriage. The newly married couple is provided with an official certificate to show they have been married according to Islamic Law.The Quran and Sunnah emphasizes the importance of Marriage.
وَمِنْ آيَاتِهِ أَنْ خَلَقَ لَكُمْ مِنْ أَنْفُسِكُمْ أَزْوَاجًا لِتَسْكُنُوا إِلَيْهَا وَجَعَلَ بَيْنَكُمْ مَوَدَّةً وَرَحْمَةً ۚ إِنَّ فِي ذَٰلِكَ لَآيَاتٍ لِقَوْمٍ يَتَفَكَّرُونَ“And one of His signs is that He has created for you, spouses from amongst yourselves so that you might take comfort in them and He has placed between you, love and mercy. In this there is surely evidence (of the truth) for the people who carefully think.”
We recommend that the Ceremony is booked at least 2 weeks prior to the planned date. Please also be aware that the summer months are a busy time for Marriage ceremonies so please book well in advance to avoid disappointment.

- Proof of Residential Address, whether AU or abroad (otherwise the address given on the booking form will be registered on the certificate).
- Conversion Certificate for new Muslims (Groom or Bride).
- Presence of two Muslim Male witnesses, with their ID’s (If you don’t have any, please let us know to organise)
- Presence of the Wali (the bride’s father, brother or next of responsible male kin to the bride).
Please Note: The Groom, Bride, Her Wali & The Two Muslim Male Witnesses Should Attend The Ceremony In Person, Otherwise The Registrar Or The Imam Must Be Informed Of Any Issue While Submitting The Application.
- Written declaration of the agreed Dowry (signed by both couples).
- A copy of the booking form can be downloaded from the website (see below).

Optional: Reserving a room for the ceremony or hiring the hall for a Walimah. If you are planning on having your nikkah at Preston Mosque, and only planning on doing the contract signing with no set up necessary, you will need to inform the Office Manager on how many guests you are planning on having. However if you are planning on having a ceremony with setup and food being served, you will need to contact the Office Manager with reservations at info@isv.org.au or 9470 2424 for arrangements as well as fees associated.
