Do many mirrors in the bedroom lead to the spouses seeing themselves naked during intercourse, and does this cause harm from jinn or negative arousal?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
Each spouse is permitted to see the entire body of the other, including the private parts. This is supported by the of Aisha, may Allah be pleased with her, regarding her bathing with the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him. As for a person looking at their own private parts, some scholars have deemed it disliked. Accordingly, it is disliked to place mirrors in bedrooms if they lead to either spouse seeing their own private parts, not because they cause arousal. What has been mentioned about harm from jinn is not known, but it can be avoided by maintaining the prescribed remembrances.
