Is it permissible to meet a girl with her mahram in a public place for the purpose of seeing and asking questions, instead of visiting her family's home, to avoid pressure?

It is permissible for the suitor to see his fiancée and speak with her as needed in a public place. The presence of her mahram (unmarriageable kin) is not a condition, but it is preferable to avoid suspicion. If the suitor's visit to the home causes him embarrassment, he should politely apologize to her family, while emphasizing his intention to visit them in the future. It is advisable to choose a woman of religious commitment and good character, who will please him and safeguard his honor, wealth, and children.
