Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: Is it permissible for a suitor to talk extensively with the prospective bride over the phone and communicate with her through communication means?
Answer:
No, this is not permissible, because this leads to evil. She is not his wife; she is a stranger to him. However, there is nothing wrong with consulting with her using some words. As for prolonging the conversation with her and joking, that is not permissible. Yes.
