قَالَ أَحْمَدُ بْنُ مَنِيعٍ : حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ ، ثَنَا يُونُسُ ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ سَعْدُ بْنُ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ : " بَيْنَا أَنَا أَطُوفُ بِالْبَيْتِ إِذْ رَأَيْتُ امْرَأَةً فَأَعْجَبَتْنِي " ، وَكَانَ يُقَالُ : لَا يَضُرُّكَ حُسْنُ امْرَأَةٍ لَا تَعْرِفُهَا .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "Once I was performing tawaf of the House (the Ka'bah) when suddenly my gaze fell on a woman who appealed to me," and it used to be said: "The beauty of a woman whom you do not know does you no harm."
وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى : حَدَّثَنَا شَيْبَانُ بْنُ فَرُّوخَ ، أَنَا الْفُضَيْلُ بْنُ سُلَيْمَانَ ، حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مُطَرِّفٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي جَدِّي قَالَ : سَمِعْتُ عَلْقَمَةَ بْنَ الْحُوَيْرِثِ الْغِفَارِيَّ مِنْ أَصْحَابِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " زِنَا الْعَيْنَيْنِ النَّظَرُ ".
Sayyiduna Alqamah bin al-Huwayrith al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him), who is one of the Companions of the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him), relates that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "The adultery of the two eyes is looking (with an unlawful gaze)."
الْحَارِثُ : حَدَّثَنَا دَاوُدُ ، ثَنَا مَيْسَرَةُ ، عَنْ أَبِي عَائِشَةَ ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ بْنِ عُمَرَ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا ، قَالَا : خَطَبَنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، فَذَكَرَ حَدِيثًا ، وَفِيهِ : " وَمَنْ أَصَابَ مِنِ امْرَأَةٍ نَظْرَةً حَرَامًا مَلَأَ اللهُ عَيْنَيْهِ نَارًا ، ثُمَ أَمَرَ بِهِ إِلَى النَّارِ ، فَإِنْ غَضَّ بَصَرَهُ عَنْهَا أَدْخَلَ اللهُ قَلْبَهُ مَحَبَّتَهُ وَرَحْمَتَهُ ، وَأَمَرَ بِهِ إِلَى الْجَنَّةِ .
وَمَنْ صَافَحَ امْرَأَةً حَرَامًا جَاءَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ مَغْلُولَةً يَدَاهُ إِلَى عُنُقِهِ ، ثُمَّ يُؤْمَرُ بِهِ إِلَى النَّارِ ، فَإِنْ فَاكَهَهَا حُبِسَ بِكُلِّ كَلِمَةٍ فِي الدُّنْيَا أَلْفَ عَامٍ " .
وَفِي الْحَدِيثِ : " وَاشْتَدَّ غَضَبُ اللهِ عَلَى امْرَأَةٍ ذَاتِ بَعْلٍ مَلَأَتْ عَيْنَيْهَا مِنْ غَيْرِ زَوْجِهَا ، أَوْ غَيْرِ ذِي رَحِمٍ مِنْهَا ، فَإِذَا فَعَلَتْ ذَلِكَ أَحْبَطَ اللهُ كُلَّ عَمَلٍ عَمِلَتْهُ ، فَإِنْ أَوْطَأَتْ فِرَاشَهُ غَيْرَهُ كَانَ حَقًّا عَلَى اللهِ تَعَالَى أَنْ يُجَرِّعَهَا النَّارَ مِنْ يَوْمِ تَمُوتُ فِي قَبْرِهَا ".

It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Hurayrah and Sayyiduna Ibn Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) addressed us with a sermon; then the narrator mentioned a long hadith in which there are also these (words): "Whoever casts an unlawful glance at a woman, Allah Almighty will fill his two eyes with fire, then he will be ordered to be taken to Hell; but if he lowers his gaze from her (out of fear of temptation), Allah Almighty will place His love and His mercy in his heart and will issue the command of Paradise for him. And whoever shakes hands with a non-mahram woman will come on the Day of Resurrection with his two hands tied to his neck, then he will be ordered to be taken to the Fire; and if he jested (flirted) with that woman, he will be detained (in Hell) for a thousand years for every word spoken in the world." And in the same hadith there is also: "And the wrath of Allah is severe upon a married woman who gazes her fill at a strange man (for pleasure) other than her husband or her mahram relative; when she does that, Allah Almighty will nullify every deed she has done. Then if she lets a strange man onto her husband's bed (i.e. commits adultery), it is a right upon Allah Almighty to make her gulp down fire in her grave from the day she dies."
وَقَالَ ابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ : حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ بْنِ يَزِيدَ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنِ ابْنِ مَسْعُودٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : " الْإِثْمُ حَوَازُ الْقُلُوبِ ، وَمَا كَانَ مِنْ نَظْرَةٍ فَإِنَّ لِلشَّيْطَانِ فِيهَا مَطْمَعًا ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: "Sin is what stirs unease and disquiet in hearts, and in every glance (that falls on a non-mahram) there is a particular greed and craving for Satan (to lead a person into temptation)."
وَقَالَ أَبُو يَعْلَى : حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْبَاهِلِيُّ ، ثَنَا أَبُو حَبِيبٍ الْغَنَوِيُّ ، عَنْ بَهْزِ بْنِ حَكِيمٍ ، عَنْ أَبِيهِ ، عَنْ جَدِّهِ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " ثَلَاثَةٌ لَا تَرَى أَعْيُنُهُمُ النَّارَ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ : عَيْنٌ بَكَتْ مِنْ خَشْيَةِ اللهِ تَعَالَى ، وَعَيْنٌ حَرَسَتْ فِي سَبِيلِ اللهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ ، وَعَيْنٌ غَضَّتْ عَنْ مَحَارِمِ اللهِ تَبَارَكَ وَتَعَالَى ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Mu'awiyah bin Haydah (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "There are three fortunate kinds whose eyes will not see the Fire of Hell on the Day of Resurrection: the eye that wept out of fear of Allah Almighty, the eye that kept guard in the path of Allah, and the eye that lowered its gaze from the things made forbidden by Allah, the Blessed and Exalted."
قَالَ إِسْحَاقُ : أَخْبَرَنَا الْمُلَائِيُّ ، ثَنَا سُفْيَانُ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ مُجَاهِدٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : " غَطِّي عَنَّا قَنَازِعَكِ يَا أُمَّ أَيْمَنَ ".
It is narrated from Mujahid (may Allah have mercy on him) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Umm Ayman! Keep the locks of your hair (or the hanging tufts of your braid) hidden from us (i.e. keep them covered)."
وَقَالَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ : حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ ، عَنْ يُونُسَ بْنِ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ أَبِي إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنْ سَعِيدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرٍ ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا ، عَنِ الْفَضْلِ بْنِ عَبَّاسٍ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَ : " كُنْتُ رَدِيفَ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَأَعْرَابِيٌّ مَعَهُ ابْنَةٌ لَهُ حَسْنَاءُ ، فَجَعَلَ الْأَعْرَابِيُّ يَعْرِضُهَا لِرَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ رَجَاءَ أَنْ يَتَزَوَّجَهَا ".
It is narrated from Sayyiduna al-Fadl bin Abbas (may Allah be pleased with them both) that he said: "I was riding behind the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) (on his mount), and there was a Bedouin there with his beautiful daughter, and the Bedouin began presenting his daughter to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in the hope that he (peace and blessings be upon him) might marry her."
