What serves as a substitute for looking at the prospective bride

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, is there a benefit derived from the hadith of the woman who offers herself?

Answer:
They say that this serves as a substitute for looking at her if it is not easy to look at her, or if he does not wish to look at her. They say that this serves as a substitute for that: he goes to a woman from his relatives, such as his mother or his sister, or he goes to her, or she gives him her characteristics or information. Yes, this serves as a substitute for looking at her.
