Sending one’s photo to propose for a girl living in another country

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I have a dilemma, there’s a girl in Pakistan looking for a husband and I am living abroad (UK), I have seen this girl’s photograph, but she will probably (Allah knows best) want to see how I look like when I show interest. Is it allowed for me to send her a picture, which can be deleted thereafter. If not, what should I do. Thanks. I need a solution if it’s not allowed.

Bismillaah

A: No, it is not allowed.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.

A: You can fly over to Pakistan.

And Allah Ta’ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
