I know its not allowed to look at women, but how is a man to know the physic of the women(it is difficult to tell wen they are in hijab) In this case, is it permissible to look at her?

Answer

It is permissible to look at a girl’s face with the intention of marrying her.

It is obvious for the girl to remove her veil if arrangements has been made for a boy to see a girl as a prospective marriage partner.
