Is it permissible to look at an elderly woman who is not desired?
Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : May Allah reward you with good. Regarding looking at an elderly woman who is not desired for sexual pleasure, is it permissible to look at her?
The Shaykh : If you mean what you are saying, then the answer is that it is permissible if she is as you say, meaning she is not desired. But the truth is, I do not know if you are depicting the situation accurately or not, because there is an old Arabic proverb that says: "For every drop in the village, there is a catcher."
