Do you think halal dating(getting to know your opposite gender with halal boundaries) is okay?
Well tbvh There is no such thing as an "Halal Date" first of all Secondly to know the opposite gender in presence of elders is what i have heard so far but i too believe in this era its quite necessary to know each other before you go ahead on things as per the situation and circumstances of this world and what's happening in it
