Re: Question in regards to rishta pics and hijab
Everyone is an ALIM (without any knowledge) here… ![]()
The above quote is totally un-islamic.
Not only is it permissible, but the guidance of Messenger of Allah (saws) absolutely encourages the believers to see, and even meet and talk with one whom they wish to marry, provided the girl is accompanied by at least one of her mehram male relatives (father, uncle, brother, etc.)
“Jaber related that the Prophet (saws) said: ‘When one of you seeks a woman in marriage let him look at whom he wishes to marry.’

“Mughirah ibn Shu’bah narrated: ‘I sought a woman in marriage. The Messenger of Allah (saws) asked me :’Have you seen her?’ I said : ‘No.’ He (saws) then said: Then look at her, because it is more proper that love should be cemented between you.’
Related by Ahmed, Ibn Majah, Nasai, and Trimidhi.”
There is absolutely no harm in such interaction, provided both parties fear Allah and they sincerely intend to marry each other.
As for “Hijab”,
Islam has no fixed uniform of dress for Muslim women. But there are two requirements, which come from the Qur’an and hadith (verified sayings of the Prophet Muhammad):
First, a woman’s body should be covered such that only her face, hands, and feet are revealed.
Secondly, the clothing must be loose enough so that the shape of a woman’s body is not visible.
