Question

I want to get married but the girl is far from my location. Can she come on video or online...

Answer

This is not permissible. Pictures of all animate objects are haraam in Islam.

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

Fatawa SA is an independent, read-only index of fatawa already published by Mufti Online — Madrasah Ta'leemuddeen. It is not a fatwa service. For your own situation, ask the issuing Darul Ifta directly.
