Daily Hadith Sat 06-Mar-2010 - 21 Rabbi al-Awwal 1431 حديث اليوم
Prohibition of gazing at women and Beardless Handsome Boys except in Exigency
Abu Sa`id Al-Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) said: The Messenger of Allah (PBUH) said, "A man must not look at a mans private parts nor must a woman look at a womans private parts; neither should two men lie naked under one cover, nor should two women lie naked under the same cover."[Muslim].


Commentary:
This Hadith tells us how Islam has closed all doors of immodesty and obscenity. When Islam does not allow a man to sleep without any clothes on with another man, and also does not permit a woman to sleep without any clothes on with another woman, how can it possibly let the gents and ladies mix freely? Free mixing of men and women is a common evil in the West and is now being projected through television in Muslim countries. May Allah guide Muslims to the Straight Path!.

باب تحريم النظر إلى المرأة الأجنبية
والأمرد الحسن لغير حاجة شرعية
وعنْ أبي سَعيدٍ رضي اللَّه عنْهُ أنَّ رسُول اللَّهِ صَلّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وسَلَّم قال : « لا يَنْظُرُ الرَّجُلُ إلى عوْرةِ الرَّجُلِ ، وَلا المَرْأةُ إلى عوْرَةِ المَرْأةِ ، ولا يُفْضِى الرَّجُلُ إلى الرَّجُلِ في ثوبٍ واحِدٍ ، ولا تُفْضِى المَرْأةُ إلى المَرْأةِ في الثَّوْبِ الواحِدِ » رواه مسلم .
