Sahih Muslim 2159a (Book 38, Hadith 59) #12737
Lowering Gaze from Non-Mahrams

SUMMARY: The Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) commanded Jarir to turn away his eyes when looking at the face of a non-Mahram.

Jarir b. 'Abdullah reported: I asked Allah's Messenger about the sudden glance (that is cast) on the face (of a non-Mahram). He commanded me that I should turn away my eyes.
حَدَّثَنِي قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ زُرَيْعٍ، ح وَحَدَّثَنَا أَبُو بَكْرِ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا إِسْمَاعِيلُ ابْنُ عُلَيَّةَ، كِلاَهُمَا عَنْ يُونُسَ، ح وَحَدَّثَنِي زُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، حَدَّثَنَا هُشَيْمٌ، أَخْبَرَنَا يُونُسُ، عَنْ عَمْرِو بْنِ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ أَبِي زُرْعَةَ، عَنْ جَرِيرِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ عَنْ نَظَرِ الْفُجَاءَةِ فَأَمَرَنِي أَنْ أَصْرِفَ بَصَرِي

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about lowering one's gaze from non-mahrams, which is an important Islamic teaching. According to this hadith, when Jarir asked the Prophet Muhammad about looking at the face of a non-mahram, he was commanded to turn away his eyes. This teaches us that it is important for Muslims to lower their gaze and not look at people who are not mahrams in order to maintain modesty and respect for others. It also teaches us that we should be mindful of our actions and be aware of how they may affect others around us. Furthermore, it encourages us to practice self control and restraint in our interactions with those who are not mahrams so as not to cause any harm or discomfort for them or ourselves.
