A biodata layout for Muslim families
Many biodata templates online are built around Hindu customs, with a deity at the top and rows for gotra, rashi and nakshatra, so a Muslim family has to delete things before it can start. This page opens the biodata maker already set up differently. The top line reads بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم, the horoscope rows and time of birth are switched off, and a Sect / maslak row sits right after Religion. The colours start in green and gold, and you can change them with one tap.
Everything else is the same maker: seven designs, your own rows, a photo with crop and zoom, and downloads as an A4 PDF or a JPG for WhatsApp.
What families usually put in
| Section | Rows to consider |
|---|---|
| Personal details | Name, date and place of birth, height, complexion, religion, sect / maslak, caste or biradari if your family mentions it, mother tongue, education, occupation, income |
| Family details | Father's name and occupation, mother's name and occupation, brothers and sisters, family type, native place |
| Contact details | Contact person (often the father or an elder brother), phone, city |
| About me | A few lines about yourself, your deen and daily life, and what you hope for in a partner |
Add your own rows the same way, for example Hafiz / Aalim, Namaz, Hijab, Grandfather's name or Maternal family, if those matter to the families you are talking to. Leave out anything you would rather discuss in person; empty rows never appear on the biodata.
The top line
The quick buttons above the title give you the Bismillah in Arabic, the number 786, or no line at all. Both forms are widely used, and some families prefer to keep the biodata plain. The line is drawn as ordinary text, so it prints sharply, and no pictures are added. You can also type a line of your own, such as a short dua, in the box.
Photo and privacy
- The photo is optional. If you add one, choose a recent, clear picture against a plain background, dressed as you would be when meeting the family. Drag it to centre your face.
- Share less at first. A biodata gets forwarded. A parent's phone number and your city are enough for the first contact; the full address can wait.
- Nothing is uploaded. The biodata is made inside your browser. Your photo and details stay on your phone or computer.
Labels in other languages
If the families you are writing to read Hindi, Bengali, Gujarati or another Indian language more easily, tap that language under "Labels in". The headings and row labels change and your details stay as typed. The Sect / maslak row keeps its English label in that case, and you can rename it, for example to मसलक.

Frequently asked questions
What should a Muslim marriage biodata include?
Personal details (name, date and place of birth, height, education, occupation), religion and sect or maslak if you want to mention it, family details with the parents' names and work and the siblings, and a contact person. A few lines about yourself and what you hope for in a partner finish it.
Should I write Bismillah or 786 at the top?
Families use both. Some write Bismillah in Arabic, and many in South Asia write 786, the number long used to stand for it. Tap either quick button, type your own line, or leave the top line empty. It is entirely your family's choice.
Why are gotra, rashi and nakshatra hidden?
They come from Hindu horoscope matching and are not usually part of a Muslim biodata, so this page switches them off along with time of birth. They are hidden, not deleted: tap the eye button on a row to show it again.
What do I write in the sect / maslak row?
Write what your family usually says when asked, for example Sunni or Shia, or the school or maslak you follow. If you would rather not mention it, leave the row empty and it won't appear.
Do I have to add a photo?
No. The photo is optional. Some families share a photo only after the first conversation. Leave it out and the details use the full width of the page.
