Lowering the gaze is important for both men and women

So, lowering the gaze is more righteous, purer and cleaner for both men and woman, and whoever releases the reign of his eyesight and allows it to look here and there, and he does not guard it from the things rendered impermissible by Allah (عَزَّوَجَلَّ), then this is a means of falling into lewdness and impermissible acts because impermissible looks lead to fornication, and it is a means that leads to it.
