How To Date As a Muslim
Today, I'm a relationship expert… (pretend?) Pretend. I'm a relationship coach and I'm here to tell you how to excel at dating while you're Muslim.
Remember, your father must know about it. (girls only)
You must have researched the guy/girl first. Before you'd be dating someone that can wake up one day and smash a bottle on your head.
You must have your first few meetings in public and in a space where your mahram is there to see and hear what you're saying. Check the guy/girl out well. See if they're pretty/smart/good looking. You have your kids to worry about. Any DNA that you don't want in your kids should not be present abeg.
If you want to chat with each other, open a group chat! You can't be together alone, shaytaan would be the third.
The guy must give the girl money or something valuable before they can start dating. The girl must have decided what she wants and told him. Otherwise, no dating for both of them. There's no free meal here. Muslim girls are prizes. Thank you.
2 Muslims must witness your agreement to date … Of course, alongside the girl's father.
When the agreement is on going, the girl’s dad has to say something to show that he is in support of them dating. E.g: “I’m giving you my daughter” and the guy must say something like “I accept” and the girl can object if she doesn't want again. If she still wants the guy, she just has to keep silent. C’est fin.
Now, halal dating has commenced. Go ahead and announce to the world. 1

I'm a bit confused and I'd appreciate explanation, is dating the same as marriage? Why is the guy giving mahr to date? I thought mahr was just for marriage.
Thank youuuu!💕
