The answer

Before the marriage contract, the suitor is a stranger to the fiancée, and a suitor kissing his fiancée is a reprehensible and forbidden act according to Islamic law. They must offer sincere repentance, abstain from disobedience, and adhere to Islamic guidelines, such as not being in seclusion together and speaking modestly when necessary. If the suitor is serious, he should expedite the marriage, for there is nothing better for those in love than marriage. One must be patient and adhere to the limits of Islamic law, strengthen one's connection with Allah, and learn religious matters, for therein lies goodness and a favorable outcome.
