What is the ruling on saying: "Loving anyone but you is forbidden, and loving you is permissible"?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
This word is permissible if said to someone whom it is lawful to address with it, such as one's wife. However, if it is said to a non- woman (ajnabiyyah) or someone in a similar category, it is not permissible. In that case, it is considered among the snares of Satan and doors to evil and temptation, as are words of passion and flirtation.
