Love marriage

Q: I wanted to ask a question that is love marriage halaal or haraam in Islam? If a girl who is in proper Islamic dress watches you constantly and doesn't say anything, is it fine to ask her for marriage and is it ok to text once in a while the person you love before nikaah?

A: The right procedure is that you speak to her elders, and until the nikaah is not done it is not correct to text, to speak or to become informal.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
