Say to the believing men that they should lower their gaze and guard their modesty: that will make for greater purity for them: And God is well acquainted with all that they do.
Chapter 24: Light (Al-Noor)

Prophet Muhammad (SAW) said: "I have not left a fitnah (trial, calamity or cause for calamity) after me more than (the fitnah) with women for men." (Bukhari and Muslim)
Our Prophet SAW also related: "The world is sweet and verdant, and Allah having put you in it in your turn watches how you act; so fear the world and fear women, for the first trial of the Bani Israel had to do with women." (Muslim)

WHAT SHOULD WE DO????
Successful controlling of our gaze also depends upon our avoidance of sinful situations. An Islamic idiom (Usul Al-Fiqh) says: "Anything that leads to haram is haram in itself." Therefore cutting any unlawful situation in their bud is what we should strive for. Performance of a pious deed is rewarded and avoidance of a sinful deed is also rewarded, Al-Hamdulillah. One of the biggest culprits which encourage us to disobey the ayahs in Surah Nur, are the movies. In the name of entertainment, to please our peers and children and as an excuse to do something together as a family, we astonishingly allow the development of un-Islamic scenes and dialogues in front of our eyes. Can we ever imagine (Na'udubillah) any Sahaba renting the latest hit from Blockbuster videos, or listening to music with luring lyrics at high volume?
Likewise, we watch news on TV and stare at the anchorwomen, female gymnasts, and female swimmers who are scantily dressed. Thus we are not supposed to stare at the faces of non-Mahrams of opposite gender, be they our fellow students, elders, saleswomen or someone on TV.
Each one of us may have become culprits of not obeying the ayahs in Surah Nur. It is not too late to realize these shortcomings and work at rectifying ourselves. Above all, we should always ask forgiveness of Allah (SWT).
Indeed blessed are those Muslims who are able to check their gazes. Let's contemplate on the above humble advice and constantly make the following supplication: "O Allah help us in controlling our sensual desires until we get married, and after our marriage, let our desires be only towards our spouses ... aameen."
