The Obligation of Lowering the Gaze from the Adornments of Female Slaves
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
May Allah reward you, Honorable Shaykh. This questioner says: As is well known, the 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered) of a female slave in front of men is from the navel to the knee. Is it permissible to look at a female slave and look at her adornments?
Answer:
No, my brother. You do not look at the adornments; you lower your gaze from them.[An-Nur 24:30] This applies to free women and to those in whom there is fitnah (trial, discord or temptation); you do not look at them.
