Question:
How does a man hint to a woman in 'iddah regarding marriage?
Answer:
How is it done? It is a hint, a suggestion, using ambiguous words that could be interpreted in more than one way. He says, "I am interested in you," or "I have a desire for someone like you," or "Do not deny yourself to me," or something similar. This is because the words are ambiguous; they could mean he wants to propose to her, or they could mean he loves her with a love of faith or brotherhood. Ambiguous speech is permissible, but explicit speech proposing marriage is forbidden. Yes.
