Question

Assalam-O-Alaikum. If a person often sees his/her wife/husband private part to amuse himself/herself than would he/she be sinful and would he/she be given punishment in the life after here for this? I know that it is better to not see private part of wife/husband but I want to know is it a sin and punishment will be given in the life after here? JazakAllah.

Answer

It is undesirable for both the partners to look at each other's genitals.
