SMART PHONES LOWERED THE GAZE!!
As I walked on the road I observed lowering the gaze is for men too but when we walk on the road do we really see men or women with lowered gaze ?
But we see the youth of today amazingly with lowered gaze in their smart phones where the virtual world offers more to see.
So to lower the gaze doesn’t only mean to actually lower the gaze but also to protect our gazes from non mehram “Tell the believing men to lower their gaze (from looking at forbidden things), and protect their private parts (from illegal sexual acts). That is purer for them. Verily, Allaah is All Aware of what they do”
[al-Noor 24:30]
And the lower level of imaan would be that a glance falls and he /she lowers the gaze and the higher level of imaan would be to keep glances away from the clothing and footwear too.
A muslim is forgiven the first glance, but repeatedly looking at corrupt sites goes against that.
It was narrated that Buraydah ibn al-Husayb said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said to ‘Ali: “O ‘Ali, do not follow one glance with another; you are forgiven the first but not the second.” Narrated by al-Tirmidhi, 2777; Abu Dawood, 2149. classed as hasan by Shaykh al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Targheeb, 1903.
It was narrated that Jareer ibn ‘Abd-Allaah said: I asked the Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) about an accidental glance, and he told me to look away. Narrated by Muslim, 2159.
Al-Nawawi said:
What is meant by an accidental glace is if one's gaze falls upon a non-mahram woman accidentally; there is no sin in that initially, but he must look away immediately. If he looks away immediately, there is no sin on him, but if he persists in looking, then he has sinned, because of this hadeeth, for the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) commanded him to look away. And Allaah says (interpretation of the meaning):
I have seen women and heard men passing comments on the dresses of others, whether its lewd, obscene or modest that person has not worn for us to see.
The zina of the eyes is looking, the zina of the tongue is speaking; the heart hopes and wishes for that and the private parts confirm it or deny it.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari, 5899; Muslim, 2657.
So looking at something that will lead to sin is forbidden and same goes for the tongue and heart.
May Allah bestow us with taqwa to lower the gaze and guard our modesty the way He wishes aameen
