Advice for the Young Man Regarding the Trials of Desires

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
And this young Muslim man asks: What is the advice for him? And he thanks you. Yes. Regarding these trials, the trials of desires, which he sees on the satellite channels, and when he goes out to the street, he finds the women who display their adornment. Yes. Your advice? May Allah reward you with good.

Answer:
Our advice is that he should stay away from the satellite channels that contain fitnah (trial, discord or temptation); he should not open them or look at them, so that he is safe from their evil. Also, when he goes out on the street, he should not look at the women who display their adornment. Allah the Exalted said:
Tell the believing men to reduce [some] of their visionقُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَغُضُّوا مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِمْ
[An-Nur 24:30]
and guard their private parts. That is purer for them. Indeed, Allah is Acquainted with what they do.وَيَحْفَظُوا فُرُوجَهُمْ ذَٰلِكَ أَزْكَىٰ لَهُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا يَصْنَعُونَ
[An-Nur 24:30]
. He should avoid the two trials: looking at the tempting satellite channels and looking at the tempting women.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you with good.
