Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Often my gaze falls on women inside and outside the Haram, but I quickly avert my sight. Is there a sin on me?
Answer:
If you avert your gaze, there is no sin on you; in fact, you are rewarded. As for the sudden glance that you did not intend, you are not held accountable for it. But if you continue looking intentionally, that is forbidden for you. As long as you avert your gaze, that is a sign of good, and you are rewarded, if Allah wills.[An-Nur 24:30] You have lowered your gaze, and praise be to Allah.
