The answer

The summary answers a question about interacting with a suitor, clarifying that a suitor is a stranger to his fiancée until the marriage contract is concluded. It emphasizes the importance of choosing a good husband, one who possesses religious devotion and good character, citing the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) saying: "If someone whose character and religious commitment you are pleased with comes to you, then marry him. If you do not do so, there will be tribulation on earth and widespread corruption." It advises against rushing to accept a suitor again if his actions warrant otherwise, unless there is a fear of missing out on marriage, provided he observes the obligatory duties and avoids major sins.
