Is tasawwur of a non-mahram woman is also haram? Is lobster haram for the Shafiis as well?

Answered as per Hanafi Fiqh by Askimam.org
Answer

1. To fantasise and make Tasawwur of a non-Mahram woman is Haraam, and
tantamount to committing Zina with the heart and mind, as mentioned in the
Hadith. It is recorded in Shaami that, ‘just as it is Haraam to look at that
which is not permissible, it is Haraam to even think and ponder over that
which is not permissible.’ (Raddul Mukhtaar vol.5 pg.263; Rashidiyya)
2. Consuming lobsters for Shaaf’ees is permissible. (Sharhul Muhadhab vol.9
pg.30)
