Question:
What is your advice for one who is afflicted with looking at women?

Answer:
Our advice is that he should repent to Allah and stay away from women. He should stay away from places where women are, such as markets or places where there are attractive women. He should avoid these places and lower his gaze if he encounters women on the road, in the mosque, or in any place. He should lower his gaze. 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]
. Yes.
