What is the ruling on a woman looking at non-mahram men?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, what is the ruling on a woman looking at non-mahram men if it is without desire? And is it used as evidence for this that Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) used to look at the Abyssinians while they were playing with spears?

Answer:
A woman looking at non-mahram men, if it is for a need and not for desire, is only for a need, and there is no harm in that.
