Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, a questioner says: Is it permissible for a person to supplicate against himself with blindness and dimness of sight if he repents from the sin of looking at what is forbidden and then returns to it?
Answer:
It is not permissible for him to do that; he should not supplicate against himself. Rather, he should repent to Allah. Also, he should not go to places that have bad sights, such as gatherings of women or women’s markets; he should stay away from them. Yes. And he should not look at channels that have bad sights and the spread of nudity; he should stay away from them and protect himself. Yes.
