The ruling on looking at the image of the forbidden woman
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The Shaykh’s case: Is it permissible to look at the image of the forbidden woman in the hereafter?
Answer:
If it is sufficient for you, then look at it. If it is enough for you, then look at it. Because if it is permissible to look at her, then looking at her image is permissible, unless she is naked and there is nothing of her visible except what is not permissible to look at, in which case it is not permissible. But if what is visible of her is only her face and her hands, then there is no harm if this is sufficient for you, praise be to Allah. Yes. But it remains that image-making is forbidden. It remains that image-making is forbidden. So it is not permissible for us to say, “Take a picture so that it is enough to look at the image.” This is forbidden. The end does not justify the means. And it is forbidden. Marketing is forbidden. Yes.
