وينظر الرّجل إلى فرج أمته وزوجته

ووجه محرمه ورأسها وصدرها وساقيها، وعضديهاجن

الهداية في شرح بداية المبتدي (4/ 370)

قال: "وينظر الرجل من أمته التي تحل له وزوجته إلى فرجها" وهذا إطلاق في النظر إلى سائر بدنها عن شهوة وغير شهوة. والأصل فيه قوله عليه الصلاة والسلام: "غض بصرك إلا عن أمتك وامرأتك" ولأن ما فوق ذلك من المس والغشيان مباح فالنظر أولى
