Question
A Mufti says that it is permissible to look at women without lust. I always understood that it was not permissible.
Answer
The mufti is astray. It is haraam to look at ghair mahram women. Ignore what he has said. He is a liberal lacking in Taqwa, hence he spoke drivel.
GLUTTONY
Imaam Shaafi‟ (Rahmatullah alayh) explaining the calamities of satiation (full stomach) said: "From the age of ten years I never ate to satiation (i.e. he did not fill his stomach to capacity) because the effect of satiation is heaviness in the body, hardness of the heart, elimination of understanding, increase in sleepiness, and it inhibits Ibaadat"
