Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
The questioner says: We have learned the ruling on a man looking at women, so what is the ruling on a woman looking at men if the look is without desire?

Answer:
Looking out of necessity, without desire, is permissible. However, looking at men without necessity, or looking with desire, is forbidden. Yes, tell the believing women:
And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private partsوَقُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ يَغْضُضْنَ مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِنَّ وَيَحْفَظْنَ فُرُوجَهُنَّ
[An-Nur 24:31]
Yes.
