What is the ruling on looking at women during the month of Ramadan?
Source: FtawySummarized from the full answer at Ftawy · imported Sep 2, 2026
Looking at women is Islamically forbidden, because Allah commanded lowering the gaze and warned those who disobey His command. Looking at non- women does not invalidate the fast nor necessitate expiation, but a Muslim must lower his gaze and repent to Allah for having done so.
