Permissibility of looking at the prospective bride more than once

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Your Eminence! Regarding a young man who proposed to a girl, and the engagement period was, for example, one or two months, and he wants to see her in the presence of a mahram (a male guardian from her family), is it permissible for him to see her again?
Yes, if he proposed to the woman and saw her the first time, and then he wants to look at her again, there is no harm, provided his intention is not to enjoy looking at her; there is no harm. Because a person may see something for the first time and it may not be as it actually is.So he says: I want to repeat the viewing in order to reflect more.So we say: There is no harm in this;Because the purpose of looking at the prospective bride is: so that he may propose to her with full knowledge of her, so that this may be more conducive to loving her and to harmony between them.
