Instead, it should take place in a public setting. Once mutual interest is established, it is necessary to meet the family to inform them of your intentions. If you wish to get to know each other and discuss important matters, arrangements should be made with her family to meet either at their home or in a public place, with the sister’s mahram present. These meetings should not be regarded as casual dates but rather as opportunities to reach an agreement. The discussions should be sincere, focused, and straightforward. These meetings can be repeated until a mutual agreement is reached.\"},{\"insert\":\"\\n\\n\"},{\"attributes\":{\"color\":\"#000000\",\"background\":\"transparent\"},\"insert\":\"This is a series on marriage put together by a fellow student of knowledge, Farid Dingle.
