Entertaining thoughts of a strange man

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q: I have a question concerning marriage. I’m a 21 year old female and I’ve recently met someone at a friends wedding. My parents don’t want me to get married yet as I’m studying towards a degree, so I haven’t told them about my interest, the man i’ve met also doesn’t know about my interest. I refuse to get into a relationship with him as I’m aware its haraam. I am however extremely impressed with his character and feel that he would make a great spouse. My question is, Is it possible to make dua to marry this specific person? And if so what should i read?

A: If you feel that he is a nice person then marry him without delay. To entertain these types of thoughts of a stranger is not permissible.

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