Short answer
Requests for money, pressure to move conversations immediately, inconsistent identity details, refusal to verify important information and emotional manipulation are warning signs.
Islamic Guidance
What Islam teaches
Islam encourages honesty and prohibits deception and exploitation. Trust should be built through evidence and responsible conduct rather than emotional pressure.
Practical Guidance
What you can consider
Never send money or sensitive documents simply because someone claims to be a potential spouse. Verify identity and involve trusted family members before major decisions.
