The first
question of Fatwa no.17930
Q 1: What
is the ruling on women advertising in newspapers and magazines their
descriptions seeking marriage?
A: A woman advertising her desire to marry in newspapers and magazines and listing her descriptions conflicts with chastity, modesty and decency. It is not a Muslim custom at all. Thus, it is obligatory to refrain from doing it. Furthermore, it conflicts with the responsibility of her Waliy (a legally accountable person acting for a woman seeking marriage) by whose approval she may be given in marriage.
