The ruling on a woman looking at men through television channels
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
His other question says: Some women are lax in looking at men through some of the television channels, on the pretext that a woman looking at a man is not the same as a man looking at a woman. Is this correct?
Answer:
No, Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) commanded women just as He commanded men. He the Exalted said:[An-Nur 24:30-31] So if a woman looks at a man with desire and admiration for him, this is not permissible. But if it is not with desire or admiration for him, then there is nothing wrong with it. Also, this is what requires her to veil herself, but if he is present, it is not permissible for you to look at him while speaking to him or the like of that, except from behind a veil.
The presenter:
May Allah reward you,

Answer:
No, Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He) commanded women just as He commanded men. He the Exalted said:
(30) Tell the believing men to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts. That is purer for them. Indeed, Allah is Acquainted with what they do. (31) And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts
قُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَغُضُّوا مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِمْ وَيَحْفَظُوا فُرُوجَهُمْ ذَٰلِكَ أَزْكَىٰ لَهُمْ إِنَّ اللَّهَ خَبِيرٌ بِمَا يَصْنَعُونَ وَقُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ يَغْضُضْنَ مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِنَّ وَيَحْفَظْنَ فُرُوجَهُنَّThe presenter:
May Allah reward you,
