Surah Noor Instruction And Role Of VP In An Academy
You can look at the opposite gender to fulfil your professional obligations. The only thing which Islam requires is that your gaze should be free of malice and has modesty in it e.g. your gaze should not wander off to focus on physical features of the opposite gender . Other than that, there is nothing wrong in what you do. As far as your thoughts are concerned, you need to learn how to ignore such thoughts because you are not violating any religious injunction.
