People have disagreed over the permissibility of a man looking at a woman’s vagina, towards two opinions; one of them that it is permissible, since if it is permissible for him to enjoy pleasure from it, then how much more to look at it. But there are those who say it is not permissible, taking what ‘Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said regarding her situation with the Messenger of Allah (SAW): I never saw His and He never saw mine. The first one is more correct, and this has been brought to bear on correct behavior; Ibn Al-‘Arabi said this. And Asbagh from among our scholars has said that it is permissible for a man to lick it with his tongue, and Ibn Juwaiz Mandad said: It is permissible for the husband or the master to look at the rest of the body and the outside of the vagina without looking at the inside, and likewise it is permissible for a woman to look at the nakedness [‘awrah] of her husband, and a slave girl the nakedness of her master.
