The questioner : Is it permissible for a fiancée to shake hands with her fiancé and sit with him?
The Shaykh : It is not permissible for her to shake hands with her fiancé because she is a non-mahram to him. It is not permissible for him to be alone with her because she is a non-mahram to him. It is not permissible for him to speak to her over the phone because she is a non-mahram to him. However, a dispensation has been granted for him to look at her due to the pressing need for it. If a man looks at his fiancée and she looks at him, it is more likely that Allah will bring them together.
The questioner : May Allah bless you.
