(I make my titles "sensationalist" to get your attention, no offense)

I recall some brother's lament over why women tease him and won't give him the time of day till he is financially responsible to marry. I say, I see the beauty of why Allah tells us to lower the gaze. I liken it to windowshopping, and you don't have any money; why look at that which you are unable to attain? It only increases your wanting of it, but not your ability to have it; which may drive you to do haram to attain that which your heart desires.

Don't window shop if you're broke,  teasing and tormenting your soul. Likewise, don't involve yourself with the opposite sex, if you're not seriously considering and able to "purchase".

like i was telling you in the car, women are bought, in a sense, we're the most expensive creatures, economically and emotionally. my love don't cost a thing, but my maintainence sure does. i mean, hey, ur my bro n at the mo. ur buying me all my stuff and dealing with me and my nutty personality flaws.im expensive, no?and its a perfect metaphor. if you're taking it literally, u need to lower your ego and ponder a tick. if you have not the means to attain, why look, it just makes u want it more. if you don't have money, why go shopping? If you don't have a job, you're in no place to look for a wife. Islam tells us to marry when we are ABLE to, that means spiritually as well as financially.

Sorry to go against the flow, But I do not like your metaphor. I do however get the point and agree with it a 100%. Women are not to be bought, and if you use a metaphor like that it gives men "permission" to view them as such.

This is confusing really!* Nazar is a sin and it is not good for the heart from prophet pbuh saying "مع کل نضره‌ حرام نکت نکة سوداء فی القلب،،،، اذا خض البصر و قلت لا اله‌ الا الله‌ نکت نکتة بیضاء فی القلب ای الایمان یزيد  " who ever make a sin of nazar "haram look" a black dot will be palced on their heart! , but if they lower thier gaze and say astaghfeAllah or LailahailaAllah a white dot will be placed on their heart(increase of faith)   * We all agree on that thank Allah, I hope we do practise it ameen * The confusing bit! lol  I did not know it, that women are for sale and I need money to buy one lol.... who cares about money???? Only the one who got money in their heart!!!* Allah SWT says " " إِنْ يَكُونُوا فُقَرَاء يُغْنِهِمْ اللَّه مِنْ فَضْله" "  meaning :"32. Marry those among you who are single, or the virtuous ones among yourselves, male or female: if they are in poverty, Allah will give them means out of His grace: for Allah encompasseth all, and he knoweth all things". Light 32* Brothers & Sisters let's study islam! practise it, Allah help us ameen.* I hope our heart reamins for Allah swt and nothing else gets there niether Money nor worlds! Ameen

asalaamu alaikum, good point.....I try my best to lower my gaze, I say to myself alhamdulillah if I see a beautiful woman, and I say to myself astaghfirallah after the first look.....because the beauty comes from none other than Allah.....
