Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: Is it permissible to look at a woman repeatedly for the purpose of proposing to her? And is he allowed to request to look at her again at another time?

Answer:
Yes, he looks at her until he is certain, either to marry her or to leave her, as long as nothing has become clear to him. And looking at her is not permitted except for this, so that he is convinced. Yes.
