Imam Ali (AS) said, [It is narrated that at one time some people looked at a passing woman with lust, at which point the Imam (‘a) said
] Verily the eyes of these virile males are covetous and this glancing is the cause of their lust. Whenever any of you sees a woman whom he finds attractive, he should go to his wife, because she [too] is a woman like her.
الإمامُ عليٌّ (عَلَيهِ الّسَلامُ) : إنَّ أبصارَ هذِهِ الفُحُولِ طوامِحُ وَ هُوَ سَبَبُ هَبابِها فإذا نَظَرَ أحَدُكُمْ إلَى امْرَأة فَأعْجَبَتْهُ فَلْيَمُسَّ أهْلَهُ فَإنَّما هيَ امْرأةٌ بِامْرَأة
