Is the repentance of one who falls into viewing pornographic websites invalid unless he refrains from looking at the partially uncovered faces of his female relatives, even though this act is considered a minor sin in the understanding of the obsessive-compulsive, and it is something that has become widespread and does not incite fitnah?
Sins vary in their gravity, and for repentance from looking at the private parts of a foreign woman to be valid, it is not a condition to also repent from looking at her face. A Muslim should repent from all sins. Repentance from one sin without repenting from another is valid if it is sincere.
