Lowering the Gaze and Guarding the Modesty
Allah (s.w.t.) said: "Tell the believing men to cast down their looks and guard their private parts, that is purer for them, surely Allah is well acquainted with what they do."

Sura An-Nur, No. 24, verse 30

Imam Sadiq [a] said: "An unlawful look (at na-mahram) is an arrow from the arrows of Satan which is poisonous. He who abandons it for the sake of Allah, Almighty and Glorious, and not for something else, consequently, Allah will give him a Faith that he finds its pleasure (in his self)."

Man La Yahduruhul Faqih, vol. 4, p. 18

Imam Sadiq [a] said: "The fornication of the eyes is the intercourse of unlawful (lustful) looks, the fornication of the lips is a forbidden kiss (of na-mahram), and the fornication of the hands is touching (hands or other limbs of a na-mahram), whether the response of the genital affirm it or disaffirms it ."

Al-Kafi, vol. 5, p. 559

Imam Baqir [a] said: "The Holy Prophet [s] cursed the man who looks at the private part of a woman who is not lawful to him, and also the man proves treacherous to his religious brother's wife, and also the man that people need his help (because of his position) but he asks for a bribe from them."

AI-Kafi, vol. 5, p. 559

Mastrubation is a major sin (Gunah-e-Kabira)

By -
Once, 'Ammar ibn Musa asked Imam Sadiq [a] about commiting sexual intercourse with beasts or masterbation by the hand or other limbs of one's ownself, and he [a] replied: "Any form of these kinds and the like of them by which man pours forth his water, is (considered as) fornication (and it is unlawful)." AI-Kafi, vol. 5, p. 541 Question: What is the situation of Islam towards masturbation? Some youths say that doctors think it has no harm. The answer: Not all that doctors say is true. There are other doctors that say the opposite. What is important to us is what our Wise Creator says. He is more aware of His creatures. Islam, which is the speech of Allah, is clear in its verdicts. The Prophet (S) and his progeny have prohibited it. Masturbation is a filthy doing. Some traditions have called it as “adultery with oneself”. It does not fit the dignity of a respectable man. The clearest evidence on its ugliness is that the doer feels disgust with himself after

Alhamdu means that (all) praise, thanks, gratitude, be to Allah alone, not to any one else, from the beginning of the universe to its end, not under compulsion, but because He alone, and none else, deserves to be praised, not only for the fulfilment of his particular desires but also, mainly, for all the bounties and blessings made available to man in his existence. The love of the merciful for His creation is so deep and fulfilling that no compensation, even in the form of gratitude, can be offered to Him. In fact He needs no return. The divine mercy is independent of gratitude. It reaches and covers all the created beings whether the creatures show gratitude or not for the benefits and bounties they make use of and enjoy. The smallest bounty is an unconditional favour. Man does not deserve it, nor has he any right to claim any favour from the Lord. It is the allembracing mercy of the merciful Lord which reaches one and all, whether any creature asks for it or not, whether the recipie
