| Answer:
Dating is against the very spirit of the social etiquette of Islam. Islam
lays its social structure on the basis of a permanent relationship between a
man and a woman in the form of a family. This relationship comes into
existence in the form of an everlasting marriage bond. Consequently, to
preserve this marital relationship, it forbids all forms of temporary
associations between a man and a woman. Such associations not only hamper
this social structure from coming into being but also contaminate the soul
of the two. When they meet in private, base emotions are bound to be
stirred. This can lead to extremely unwanted situations. |
