It is not forbidden to look at the back of her head or look at her face.

It is not forbidden to look at the back of her head or look at her face.” (9) A man told the sixth Imam: “Is it permissible for a man to look at a woman’s hair and her beauties when he wants to marry her?” He said: “If he wants to become aware of her characteristics it is all right.” (10) In another tradition, the Imam was asked: “Is it permissible for the woman to stand up so that the man can see her?” He answered: “Yes, she can even wear clothing showing the form of her body at that time.” (11) The Prophet (s.a.w.a) told a man from his companions who had proposed to marry a woman: “Look at her face and her hands.” These traditions and the like imply that if someone chooses a woman to marry after he investigates her family, her faith and morality, it is fine to look at her to learn about her physical features such as her hair, her looks and beauty, her height, and her posture.

This will block any future claims about her defects that might otherwise cause disappointment or argument. This does not mean that men can go around to look inside every house and observe all the beauties of the Muslim girls to choose one if they please. (12) 2- When you choose a wife and decide to marry her, you must intend to marry to seek God’s pleasure, not her beauty, perfection, amorous playfulness, or coquettishness.

You must act to please God and abide by His decree and follow the tradition of the divine Prophets,
