Question

I love a girl but what should I do? Does Islam allow love marriages?

Answer

All types of premarital relationships are haraam. Immediately break this relationship. If you are interested in getting married speak to your parents and let them decide.

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