بسم الله الرحمن الرحيم

Bismillā hir Rahmā nir Rahīm
In the name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful​

اشْهَدُ انْ لّآ اِلهَ اِلَّا اللّهُ وَ اَشْهَدُ اَنَّ مُحَمَّدً اعَبْدُه وَ رسوله

Ašh hadu al-lā ilāha illā-llāhu, wa ašh hadu anna Muhammadun ‘abduhu wa rasūluhu
I bear witness that none is worthy of worship but Allah, the One alone, without partner, and I bear witness that Muhammad is His servant and Messenger


As-Salāmu `Alaykum (السلام عليكم):

Would you marry a Muslim you meet online?

Nikah (Marriage Contract)

Surah Nisaa 4:4

4:4 And give the women (on marriage) their dower as a free gift; but if they, of their own good pleasure, remit any part of it to you, Take it and enjoy it with right good cheer. (Y. Ali translation)

hm... am not really sure tbh.. obviouslyy ii would meet them in person also, but if i meet a person online that i met in reality also then i might consider it i guess.. But obviously there are manyy dangers regarding this matter.

 

[abu salaahudeen]

its risky but as long as you meet them and know more about the person and his/her family

 

[UmmSqueakster]

[abu salaahudeen]

women are alot more trust worthy and reliable in comparison to fake men that try to deceive sincere women

May Allah protect the ummah from these charlatans

Hmm..but how exactly would this go?
I mean isnt talking to the opposite gender like haram?
so if you wanted to get married or something how would you go about this,esp when being online? You would have to talk to opp gender to propose or either to interact and to know each other if your a good match? you have to talk to make a decision, hope i make sense..
How would you do this? InshaAllaah some one please reply.. just curious.
because to get married to someone online ,you have to be actually talking to the opp gender, so like isnt that haram?? Someone Help am not sure ,sorry if i said anything bad

 

[abu salaahudeen]

if you notice someone with good character you would enquire this person is married or not then you would leave a messge whether a member of the family can be contacted in order to pursue. It goes without saying that certain questions would be directed towards each other

^ you ask for their parents contact details either email or telephone...then you contact them for an appointment so that they can examine you

 

[Ğħαrєєвαħ]

But you know the person has good character,because you spoke to them ,to figure out they have good character.There must be some form of communication involved.

[Life_Is_Short]

I would avoid that route to begin with.

 

[abu salaahudeen]

i agree . . .

Theres ahuge risk in this i have seen many people sufferring due to them seeking marriage without the halaal way

 

[Somaiyah]

Assalamu alaykum,

Yes, but I would like to meet the person in real life before to make the final decision without any promises before the decision.

Depends on how you met them. If you met them online without romance on your mind, liked them, then thought about marriage, and then finally met them; I would certainly marry in a situation like this (if it was requited).
