The questioner:
May Allah reward you. Your Eminence, Shaykh Salih (may Allah preserve you), Abu Muhammad al-Dawsari says: What is your advice for the one who does not lower his gaze, and what is his belief?

The Shaykh:
Allah (Exalted and Majestic is He)
Tell the believing men to reduce [some] of their vision and guard their private parts. That is purer for them.قُل لِّلْمُؤْمِنِينَ يَغُضُّوا مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِمْ وَيَحْفَظُوا فُرُوجَهُمْ ذَٰلِكَ أَزْكَىٰ لَهُمْ
[An-Nur 24:30]
so it is obligatory to lower the gaze from what Allah has forbidden. Yes.

The questioner:

The Shaykh:
The consequence is that it leads him to what is not permissible, namely committing sins and transgressions. Yes.

The presenter:
May Allah reward you,
