Is Asking for a Picture Before Marriage a Sin?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Muftionline.co.za

Q:

1. If there is a male who approaches you for marriage and says that he adores you, he likes you because of your beauty and character and then asks for your picture for the same reason, is this a sin?

2. If that person adores you more after seeing you and there is no sexual talk etc. but after that, the girl felt something and gets a vaginal discharge, does she need to make a ghusal even though there was no sexual conversation. The discharge was clear in colour. Can she offer prayer after making wudhu?

Bismillaah

A:

1. Any type of premarital relationship is totally forbidden and haraam.

2. If there is just a slight wetness she should wash that area and make wudhu.

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