Question

I have been going through these perverted thoughts all the time (homosexual) and I know it is a grave sin. I don't indulge into any such actions but stare at good looking men with desires and later I am filled with regret and grave depression. What should I do to get rid of it?

Answer

Avoid staring at them and make nikaah.

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
