It will be if you are living in a Muslim country. It is forbidden to look at Arab women's eyes. I had experienced this before and almost got in trouble.
No, its not Criminal to look at arabic or muslims woman, the criminal saying bad words or want to touch them this is criminal. i live in arabic country and you are free to look. just don't touch or even say bad words
It is generally not a criminal offense to look at females in Arab countries, however there may be cultural norms that dictate how it is appropriate to interact with women in public. It is important to respect the local culture and customs when travelling in any country.
