The Indirect Proposal of Marriage by Women

Question
A woman whose husband has passed away is still in her waiting period, and some women wish to visit her with the intention of indirectly proposing marriage to her. Is it permissible for her to receive them?
Answer
I say, and with God's success: It is permissible to hint at the proposal, but it is not permissible to state it explicitly. Therefore, visiting for this purpose is allowed, and God knows best.
