who is desirous of it, and is not feared to commit
fornication. Orherwise, marriage is a must for a person
who fears committing fornicacion.
* It is recommended to marry a woman who is
religious, virgin, fertile, and beautiful. * It is praiseworthy for a man to see the woman
whom he intends to marry when she is accompanied
by members of her famiiy. She too has rhe right of
looking at him for the same purpose.
* If it is not possi.ble for the proposing pe.rson to
see her, he may send a trusnvorthy woman to see her
for him, who would describe her to him. * It is unlaMul for a man to make a proposal to a
woman when another Muslim has already made a
proposal to her before he declines. * It is unlalvful to make obvi.ous proposal to a
divorced woman, or a widow who is in her iddah. t It
is permissibie however, to hint about marriage to such
a wom;rn saying, for instance, "I would like to marry a
woman like you." And she may respond by sayng:
"No woman wouid reject you", and the like. * It is permissible to make direct or indirect
proposal to a woman in her iddah of al irrevocable
divorce.
