Question

I understand that it is not permissible to speak to a male with whom Nikah is not already done. Do you get a lot of sin for speaking to him on the phone even though you are engaged?

Answer

I hope this response reaches you in the best of health and Imaan. Ameen inshaAllah. Yes, one may get sins by phone talks to a male with whom the Nikaah has not already been done. During the engagement period, communication between the man and woman is not only a sin, but it also leads to many problems. We have received questions from many others before on this topic. Many times those talks lead to fights, which lead to much tension between the parties, and it is not uncommon to find that engagements are also broken due to misunderstandings and miscommunication. It is best to avoid unnecessary phone talks.

And Allah knows best.
