Question: Is it permissible for a woman to say to a [Muslim] man “Indeed, I love you for the Sake of Allaah”?
Response: No, she mustn’t open this door!
Her love is in her heart, [and] she loves every believing man and woman, and every Muslim man and woman.
However, she mustn’t open this door for someone specific, because he would be tempted and would continue to speak to her and exchange statements of love [for the Sake of Allaah] and that which is similar to it, and thereby they would fall into that which is prohibited, [so] no.
إني أحبك في الله
السؤال: هل يجوز لامرأة أن تقول لرجل إني أحبك في الله؟
الجواب: لا، لا تفتح هذا الباب. محبتها في قلبها تحب كل مؤمن و مؤمنة، و كل مسلم و مسلمة، لكن لا تفتح لشخص معين هذا الباب فيطمع فيتواصل الكلام و تبادل الحب و ما شاكل ذلك فيقعون في المحذور، لا.
