Fitnah and Temptation of Women

 What I’ve seen in the era of beautification and liberalism, is that most men have lost their Gheerah (protective jealousy) over their women. 🙋‍♀

Fear Allah and be a man. Protect your wife from slanderous looks and men with animalistic tendencies. A woman uncovered is a lollipop to a man🍭, regardless of how pious he is. 

I would like to share an Arabic poem by Imaam Al Qahtani which directly targets the innate desire and nature of man (to look at beautiful women) — but Islam only allows to look at your wife, which is rightfully yours. Before sharing the poem take this Hadith into consideration:

“No man is alone with a woman but the Shaitaan is the third one present.”

[Narrated by Ahmad, al-Tirmidhi and al-Haakim; classed as saheeh by al-Albaani in Saheeh al-Jaami’ (2546)

Now the poem:

Don’t be alone with a women in suspicion [of sin],

Even if you are devoted in worship like Banān (the great ascetic and Muhaddith of Iraq and Egypt) 🕍

Indeed men who stare at women,

Are like dogs circling around a piece of meat, 🥩

If the Lions do not protect those meat,

It will be devoured without recompense or value,🪙

Do not accept affection from women,

for their hearts quickly incline and attract,🫀

Do not leave anyone alone with your family,

for over women, do brothers kill one another, 🩸

and lower your eyes from the observation of women,

and the beauty of minors and young boys.
