Question: Conveying an Intent to Discuss Marriage in the Future
Asalamu alaykum,

I've met a woman this semester at university with whom I've taken an interest in. However, there are a few years left before I graduate and begin to work, so it is too early for me to discuss marriage. Would it be acceptable for me to inform her that I am interested in asking for her father's contact information one to two years from now for the purpose of discussing marriage? If this is halal, please advise on what wording I should use and what I should avoid.

Jazaka Allah khair

You should not ask her directly as she is a strange woman, you should ask your female family member to ask on your behalf for the contact details of her Wali.

And Allah knows best
