Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The second question: The questioner says: I am a married young man, but I have a problem with the desire to look at women. So I ask you to advise me and make du'a for me now. What should I do?
Answer:
We advise you to be content and to ask Allah for safety from the evil of the fitnah of women. You must be content. If there is a need for a second wife, there is no harm, provided you are able to afford it. You may marry a second, third, or fourth wife. You must lower your gaze and restrain your self, which does not stop at anything. But, praise be to Allah, you have the opportunity for a second, third, or fourth wife if you are able. However, this must be accompanied by asking Allah for success, being content with what you have, and seeking safety from its evil, its pursuit, and its allure.
