It should not be stated unequivocally that love is permissible (), for some forms of it are praiseworthy, such as the love of Allah and His Messenger, and some are innate, while others may lead to committing forbidden acts, thus becoming forbidden (). A woman's contact with a non- man without a legitimate need is forbidden. Therefore, if the aforementioned love involves a non-mahram person, it is forbidden because it led to committing a forbidden act.
