How Can I Become Acquainted With My Fiancee?

Question:

When I go to propose to a young woman, how may I speak to her, in order to know her beliefs, her piety, her character and her manners? And is it permissible for me to sit with her?

Answer:

It is permissible for the suitor to look at the woman to whom he is proposing, but without being alone with her, because the Sunnah has been authentically reported from the Prophet-Sallallahu alaihi wasallam- to that effect.He may ask her and her guardian about what is important to him regarding matters related to marriage.
