Engagment, - Dought & clear, - * Is it permissible for the father of the man to see his son’s fiancée?

Is it permissible for the father of the man to see his son's fiancée?
-
Praise be to Allah.
It is not permissible for the father to see his son's fiancée, because
she is a non-mahram to him. It is only permissible for his son to see
her with special permission from sharee'ah, in order to create harmony
and affection after marriage. But no exception has been narrated with
regard to the man's father; in that case the original prohibition on
seeing her remains in effect, and she is like any other woman who is a
non-mahram to him. So he is enjoined to avert his gaze from her, not
to be alone with her and not to shake hands with her.
But when his son does the marriage contract with his fiancée, she
becomes his wife, even if he has not consummated the marriage with
her, and even if in your country she is still called a fiancée after
doing the marriage contract. This customary naming of the matter does
not affect anything, so long as the son's marriage contract has been
done. In that case it becomes permissible for the father to look at
his son's wife, because she has become a mahram to him, as Allah, may
He be exalted, says (interpretation of the meaning):"Forbidden to you
(for marriage) are: your mothers, your daughters... the wives of your
sons who (spring) from your own loins" [an-Nisa' 4:23].
And Allah knows best.
