In the Name of Allah, Most Gracious, Most Merciful.
This is an amazing story of how one young Sahabi (may Allah be pleased with him) felt when he committed a sin unintentionally. Brothers and sisters, let's be honest with ourselves- how often do we actually lower our gaze? Whether it's on the streets, internet, books, magazines, etc. Do we really fear Allah, our Lord in public and in private? Or are we among the hypocrites that lower their gazes when at the Masjid or Islamic gatherings, but not from non-mahrams on the streets or when we're alone browsing through the internet, magazines, etc. Do we realize the fact that Allah hears all that we say and sees all that we do, and that He knows our intentions and what is in our hearts.
"Allah knows the fraud of the eyes, and all that the hearts conceal." (Qur'an 40: 19)
We should also ask ourselves- how often do we sin and once we recognize sins we've committed, whether they're major or minor sins...how does recognizing our sins affect us? Do we stop upon recognition and feel remorse and turn to Allah seeking forgiveness, or are we too busy and heedless to even recognize the sin let alone repent to Allah. And some of us pay so little attention to sins, that we don't even think they're worth thinking about because we assume they're so 'insignificant'. May Allah give us all the ability to recognize our sins, turn to Him in sincere repentance and may He forgive us, Ameen!
This is taken from the lecture 'The Forbidden Love' by Sheikh Kamal El-Mekki

    Lowering the gaze was a command given to both men and women. We always hear this being said to the brothers. Tell these married women to stop looking at the young men in the streets aswell.

    Salaam, sister, don't not lose hope in Allah, Allah will always be with you, remember, the prophet Muhammad (pbuh) was made fun off, children threw rocks at him, he was kicked out of his own city! not only that but he has lost he beloved wife and uncle, he struggled but he never gave up. Use the prophet Muhammad (phub) as an example for he is the best of examples, the best man who has walked this earth.

If i were you, i would rather take it as an opportunity. Just imagine how much Allah (subhana wata'cala) would have been happy on me if i can stay in the right path in a place where most people are not. Just do not give in to shaytaan and its false promises. I will keep you in my prayers...

    You are in the right direction, my child no worries your faith in ALLAH is more important that the people that is going wayward. They take in everything that is materialistic thus are wrong to follow but keeping yourself to ALLAH and doing as what muslim would as sunnah is good enough that sooner when some part of those that get tired and sick of that lifestyle will somehow veered towards the right path who knows. Wallahu alam. And look for muslims over there, it is just a matter of asking.

    Our prophet Muhammad(pbuh) said that every child of Adam was a sinner, but the best of sinners are those who repent back to God. Now some Christians say Jesus wasn't the son of a man and that he had no father thus he was sinless. But he was the son of Mary and i know we all believe both were human. Since you mentioned sins, let me ask you a question, Why would God let "his son" die on the cross? No innocent person has to die for someone guilty to be forgiven. Can't he just simply forgive?

    Well, at least one former preacher quotes differences between the King James version and the American Standard version and also between the division (Catholic with 7 books more than Protestant ones) You can argue they may be differences in translation, but that's exactly the problem: translations aren't perfect, and meanings dramatically change in a short time! For instance, 50 yrs ago a "gay" person was someone who was joyous and happy. Today, "gay" means homosexuality. (cont..)

    I'm sorry for my earlier comments, forgive me. Can you quote one biblical scholar who says the bible has been changed ? When there are 10,000s of copies found of the new testament and fragments dating to just 20-30 years after Jesus. And the dead sea scrolls and silver plates of the old testament found prove that we have the original, nothing has been changed in the original Hebrew, Aramaic and Greek manuscripts. The only thing that changes is the translations and interpretations.

    As nice as this story is, it can't be attributed to the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم or his Sahabah.

The sanad has been severely criticised and graded as da'eef by Ibn Araq al-Kanani in his 'Tanziyah al-Shari'ah', 2/283; Al-Ajali in his 'Ma'arifat Thiqat' and others.

    As I said earlier, people adding "a bit of meaning here or there" into a divine scripture is exactly what corrupts it. When I want to hear the Word of God, I want the pure revelation - not someone's opinion on what *he thinks* it means. But I think its not fair to hijack this post any longer, so I take leave. In case you're interested reading a pure revelation (and live in the EU) let me know by private message and God willing I'll mail you your copy of the Quran. Good day to you sir!

    (..cont) The big problem is, these translations are used as baseline (as it is with today's bible - who reads the original Aramaic Hebrew one?), and make further revisions to "improve" the meaning of divine scriptures. Unfortunately that's led to the corruption of the bible, while we believe that it originally contained the Words of God. The Quran on the other hand, remains - despite translations - with its original text from 1400 yrs ago, confirming Noah, Jesus, Abraham and all other Prophets.
