This paper dwells into the sensitive topic of eroticism and sexuality within Islam, with a specific focus on contemporary Morocco. It explores the challenges faced by Muslims in openly discussing these subjects due to cultural sensitivity. The study investigates the impact of eroticism on Moroccan society, considering encounters with the West, media influence, cinematic and technological interactions, and responses to global risks. The analysis is structured around three distinct historical moments: “composition,” which examines the colonial-era constructions of eroticism in meticulously staged representations; “decomposition,” which explores the proliferation of erotic imagery and the subsequent disintegration of long-held Islamic notions of shame; and “re-composition,” which signifies a shift in power dynamics within spectatorship and the active manipulation of visual content by “my daily routine” (MDR) female creators. By drawing on Sartre’s concept of keyhole eroticism, the paper connects the erotic gaze and shame to modern practices of mobile phone-mediated surveillance
