The questioner:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on bringing in news satellite channels only?
The Shaykh:
By Allah, I do not know them, and I do not issue a ruling on what I do not know. Yes.
The questioner:
So if women in immodest attire appear on them, what is the ruling on them?
The Shaykh:
That is enough; you have answered. If people in immodest attire appear on them, it is not permissible for you to look at them, or for anyone else in your house to look at them. This is a clear ruling. Yes.
