Question:
Al Salamu alaykum wa rahmad Allah wa barakatu.
First off, thank you for answering my question, I’m very grateful :D
There’s this girl in my school, and I really like her. I am very ashamed to share this but I really need an answer. I’ve talked to her, and she might like me back too. Before I knew that relationships between boys and girls in Islam were strict, I talked to her freely and there may have been flirting, but now I’m extremely cautious when I talk to her. Please tell me my limits as a Muslim. I would also like to Marry her. Please suggest way to keep communication between me and her until I’m able to ask her Wali for her hand in marriage. Thank you very very much.
Answer:
wa `alaykum salam,
Since you are both in school, concentrate on your studies first. You may keep in contact until you’ve graduated, established yourself with a job and earned your income. Perhaps after that, you will be more matured and prepared for marriage.
