Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: What is the ruling on a woman looking at men who deliver Islamic lectures or fatwas via television?

Answer:
If her looking is a look of desire, looking at them with desire, this is not permissible
And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their visionوَقُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ يَغْضُضْنَ مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِنَّ
[An-Nur 24:31]

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
