"إِذا خَطَبَ أحدُكم المرأةَ فإنَّ استطاعَ أنْ يَنْظُرَ منْهَا إِلى ما يدْعوهُ إِلى نكاحِها فليفعلْ".
The Prophet ﷺ said: When one of you asked a woman in marriage, if he is able to look at what will induce him to marry her, he should do so. He (Jabir) said: I asked a girl in marriage, I used to look at her secretly, until I looked at what induced me to marry her. I, therefore, married her.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ إِذَا خَطَبَ أَحَدُكُمُ الْمَرْأَةَ فَإِنِ اسْتَطَاعَ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى مَا يَدْعُوهُ إِلَى نِكَاحِهَا فَلْيَفْعَلْ قَالَ فَخَطَبْتُ جَارِيَةً فَكُنْتُ أَتَخَبَّأُ لَهَا حَتَّى رَأَيْتُ مِنْهَا مَا دَعَانِي إِلَى نِكَاحِهَا وَتَزَوُّجِهَا فَتَزَوَّجْتُهَا

[AI] I heard the Messenger of Allah ﷺ say, "When one of you proposes to a woman, let him see from her something that attracts him to her, so he should go ahead and proceed."
سَمِعْتُ رَسُولَ اللهِ ﷺ يَقُولُ إِذَا خَطَبَ أَحَدُكُمُ الْمَرْأَةَ فَقَدِرَ أَنْ يَرَى مِنْهَا بَعْضَ مَا يَدْعُوهُ إِلَيْهَا فَلْيَفْعَلْ
