The ruling on looking at a woman without desire while in the state of ihram

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
I entered the state of ihram from the miqat while I was on a ship. After entering ihram, I saw a woman and looked at her, but without desire. Does this invalidate the 'Umrah?

Answer:
Allah the Exalted says:
Tell the believing men to reduce [some] of their visionقُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَغُضُّوا مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِمْ
[An-Nur 24:30]
It is obligatory for you to lower your gaze and seek forgiveness from Allah.
