Mufti mudassir on the Eyes

Allah says in the Quran, "Qul lil mu'mineena ya ghudu min absaarihim" , "(O Prophet) tell the believers to lower their gazes" (and "check out" guys and girls u may see walking around on the street).

Mufti Mudassir said notice that this injunction isn't "Oh you who believe lower your gazes!" rather Allah tells the prophet to tell the believers to do so. He says it is just like if a father sees his son "checkin out" girls or something like that, he will be shy to approach his son directly, instead he will tell his friend, "please talk some sense into my son not to do this"... in the same way Allah tells his friend, the prophet pbuh, to tell us to lower our gazes.

Allahumah sallih 'ala sayyidina muhammad!!

MM says, these are the eyes we will use to see Allah!! (and I would interpret that as "we will be using this same sense to see Allah, since iA we'll get more enhanced eyes in the hereafter iA, whatever those "eyes" may exactly be).
