The verse regarding lowering the gaze: If a woman is commanded to cover her face, what are men to lower their gaze from?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : The verse regarding lowering the gaze: If a woman is commanded to cover her face, what are men to lower their gaze from?

The Shaykh : The Shaykh answered: From her garment, from her garment. And likewise, in return:
And tell the believing women to reduce [some] of their vision وَقُلْ لِلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ يَغْضُضْنَ مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِنَّ
[An-Nur 24:31]
; meaning, from the garments of men.

The questioner : O brothers, may Allah reward you, scholars... Pray upon Muhammad.

The Shaykh : (peace and blessings be upon him).

The questioner : We want to benefit, may Allah reward you. Subhan Allah al-Azim. I say, may Allah reward you all, and may Allah grant you success in what is right. Now, hijab is a concept. If one wants to cover his wife, the path is clear. But beware of the arms, thighs, legs, and hair; these are present. But if she reveals her face, she applies rouge.
