Amazing Facts About Halal Dating Rules

By Cynthia Lewis


Most married people will tell you that they met their partner, fell in love, dated and then got married. Most cultures are used to this kind of relationship whereby you date the person you like and get married afterwards. Nevertheless, some cultures do not allow this. For instance, in the Islamic culture, you cannot date someone before marriage. Their Halal dating has several rules that should be met before marriage and even after marriage. Find out some facts about the rules below.

It is a normal thing to fall in love and it is acceptable. However, if you develop such feelings and tell the person you like, it can be risky as you may or may not be rejected. Hence, if you start developing romantic feelings towards someone, the only way to do the right thing is by marrying that person. However, you are supposed to fast for days and pray to avoid lust if you do not want to get married yet.

Also, you should only do the right Taaruf. This means that you should get married and date later. This is completely the opposite of what most people do. To do the right Taaruf, you should marry first then date later. You cannot date before marriage as it is not acceptable. This is to discourage fornication and heartbreaks. Thus, if you like someone, you have to get ready to marry them.

However, you might be ready to marry but lack someone to marry. In such a case, you should seek help from people. You then create a proposal consisting your biography and give it to the people you are requesting help from. Then, they will give the proposal to a recommended girl who will also send out her proposal. If this works, you can marry her.

If you have sent out a proposal and it has been accepted, you are not allowed to meet the girl alone. You therefore start dating in Taaruf. You meet with the family of the girl you want to marry and ask all the things you want to know about her. The time for this Taaruf is decided by both of you.

If it happens that the set time is up and you still do not feel like there is compatibility, you have to stop the Taaruf. You are to do this after you have asked for permission from your parents. The girl also does the same. Also, in case your parents do not allow the Taaruf, you have to stop it.

In case there is some compatibility, you may proceed to the marriage step, only after you have passed all steps. After you get married, you are now free to do anything you want. This is even the right time to date and express your feelings to each other.

Islam sets these rules to prevent people from committing sin against Allah. Also, they remain pure until marriage. Courting someone before marriage is a sin. You will have committed immorality and violated Allah rules. This means that you can be punished for breaking the rules.
