Question:
He says that he has been afflicted with looking at what is forbidden. He asks: What is the legal solution that leads to abandoning it?
Answer:
This is no excuse. You say that you are accustomed to this and cannot refrain from it. This is no excuse. You must stay away from it. Do not go to the places where there is fitnah (trial, discord or temptation) and evil. Stay away from the markets where there are women. Stay away from the place of fitnah. Withdraw and stay away from it, and you will be safe. Yes. Or do you look at the channels that contain fitnah, or the screens that display clothing, evil, and nudity? Stay away from these means of evil. Yes.
