About the Speaker

Qasim Rafique

Qasim Rafique is a Scottish relationship expert, certified coach, and published author who specializes in helping individuals and couples navigate personal and marital challenges through an Islamic lens. He draws from his diverse background—including service as a police officer, a life-changing Everest expedition, and extensive training in psychology and coaching—to offer compassionate, faith-informed guidance on issues like communication, infidelity, and emotional disconnect.

We know you have questions. We have answers.

What's this event all about?

This isn’t your typical “marriage talk.” It’s a thought-provoking experience based on Beyond the Surface, a powerful book that peels back the layers of what really shapes Muslim relationships today. We’ll explore topics like emotional maturity, healthy courting, red flags, differences between healthy and toxic courting, and what it means to build a marriage rooted in faith and self-awareness.

 

What will I get out of it?

You’ll leave with practical insights, guided discussions, and reflection tools to help you navigate real-life relationship challenges — not just theory or “feel-good” advice. Expect honest conversations, guided reflections, and insights that’ll leave you intrigued — even inspired to keep exploring after the event. Many attendees find themselves wanting to dive deeper into Beyond the Surface (which you can buy at the event or at the link above.). You’ll be able to meet with the author, ask questions, and even get the book signed!

Who should attend?

Muslims between 18 and 30 who want to better understand themselves, their expectations, and how to approach marriage the right way — whether you’re single, early in your marriage, or just want to mature.

So... Is this a matrimonial event?

No, this is not a “rishta fair” whatsoever.

May Allah grant us wisdom, sincerity, and self-awareness as we seek to build relationships that bring us closer to Him. May He bless our hearts with tranquility, our intentions with purity, and our futures with goodness — in this life and the next. Ameen.
