Thus, if he lowers his gaze and guards his chastity, his religion is protected from this source of corruption. Let him fear Allah regarding the remaining half refers to the desire of appetite\u2026 Thus, he instructed him to be mindful of Allah in this matter so that the affairs of his religion may be completed. In this hadith is an indication of the great importance of marriage, and that through it a morally accountable person preserves half of his religion.
