Lowering the Gaze is Obligatory - Shaykh Rabee' al-Madkhalee - Abu Uwais Abdullah Ali

Here is another revival of the classics. An excellent reminder on the subject matter of lowering the gaze from the work of Shaykh Rabee' al-Madkhalee (hafidhahullah Ta'ala) by Abu Uwais Abdullah Ali (rahimahullah Ta'ala).

Just as a point of benefit:  The subject is as relevant to the women as it is to the men.  Like the believing men, the believing women are obligated to lower their gaze.

Facing Problems Getting Married - Abu Khadeejah Abdul-Waahid

Here is a benefit that was initially sent to me via Twitter a long time ago.   I only recently came across it once more.  

The original audio was found on YouTube. As you can tell, the quality was extremely poor.

Here is the question that was asked to Abu Khadeejah Abdul-Waahid (hafidhahulllah Ta'ala):

Question: My father is not praying at all, and he takes only from the Quran, and he does not accept the hadith. I wish to get married, but he is against Salafiyyah and my choice of husband e.g. his race. I would not agree. What should I do in that regard as with regard to a wali?

Only so much can be done to improve an already poor quality audio.  Below, you will find what he (hafidhahullah Ta'ala advised regarding the above question:
Abu Hurairah (رضي الله عنه) narrated that the Prophet ﷺ said: "Whoever invites to guidance will be rewarded like those who follow him in the guidance are rewarded, and that will not decrease the reward of those who have followed him." [Collected by Imām Muslim]
