What is the ruling on a relationship between a young man and a young woman with the intention of marriage, and how can a young man marry a girl he does not know?

Familiarity and meetings between young men and women for the purpose of marriage are a gateway to evil and corruption. The negative view of traditional marriage is a false delusion. A happy marriage is based on good choice and the uprightness of both spouses. Getting to know a prospective bride is done by asking trustworthy people about her faith and character. The legitimate way for love is for a man to propose to the woman he loves from her family and marry her. It is not permissible to contact her privately before the عقد (marriage contract), nor to exchange love messages and calls, due to the temptation involved therein.
