Peace be on you.....
1-Just on a lighter note....Please do not mind......surely it is innocent question.

Question has words 'wedding rings' and the user id is 'bur....' . !! Interesting coincidence.

2-Mrs. / Name / or ring.

Additional information:
i- Muslim woman can marry Muslim man only, as Holy Quran explicitly commands.
ii-To observe chastity is fundamental for Muslim men and Muslim women, according to Holy Quran.

From Ahmadiyya Muslim point of view (but in personal humble capacity):

1- She (and every believer) first of all should fall in love with her (their) Maker, Sustainer, Fashioner and Protector Allah. And obey His commandments which are fortress of safety for her (and all believers).

2- Stoning to death is not applicable in any case, according to Ahmadiyya Muslims (alislamDOTorg).

3- Islam prohibits free mixing of opposite genders so that subsequent troubles may not arise. A particular person is not the end of the tunnel. However if man is sincere, should learn and accept her faith and should be checked too and all Islamic protocols be observed.

Did I miss an answer to the question? Is there a way to see without asking if a woman is married in Islam?

Already briefly written in reply at # 2 above

" 2-Mrs. / Name / or ring. "

Explanation:
Just like other woman:
i- they can be recognized by prefix Mrs.
ii- or last name (but it could be of father too)
iii- or wearing a ring (but again, they may wear as jewelry too)

No such religious rule. It is just like other woman in world. Appearance will not reveal. If in any local culture, Islamic married woman use any identity, I do not know. But religiously no such identification is prescribed as of my humble knowledge.

There is no way to know by looking.

However there is very little opportunity to meet a Pious Muslim woman through chance as Muslim males and females do not intermix socially.

Muslims do not date or are never alone with a woman until after marriage.

We meet our perspective spouse mainly through the recommendation of family and friends.

If you met a cute Muslim Girl in a social context, it is questionable if she is a practicing Muslim.

Our "courtship" is a bit different from that of many other faiths.

We first find out who a girl's wali (Usually her father) is and inform him we are interested in marrying the young lady and from there work out the negotiation of a marriage contract.

If the girl accepts the contract we then may meet accompanied by her wali to discuss it further before we both sign it in front of witnesses.

When we both sign the contract that is our marriage. No ceremony required. The Big ceremony many think is a marriage is the Walimah, a big get together for the Couple to publicly announce they are married.

Some wear wedding rings, men cannot wear gold rings but silver are OK. For women I don't think it matters. It maybe depends on wear your Muslim girl is from e:g I know of a Turkish Muslim girl who met, fell in love with and married a non Muslim man and her parents were fine with this and he was not asked to convert to Islam. It's more usual tho if you are a man you have to convert to Islam in order to marry a Muslim woman. In most cases it would be marriage or engagement..forget dating.
