بَابُ النَّهْي عَنْ كَشْفِ السَّيْرِ أَوِ النَّظْرِ مِنْ قَبْلِ الاذن وَ وَعِيدِ فَاعِلِهِ
Chapter on the Prohibition of Looking into a House Before Permission and the Threat for Doing So
Hadith 8289
عَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ كَشَفَ سِتْرًا فَأَدْخَلَ بَصَرَهُ مِنْ قَبْلِ أَنْ يُؤْذَنَ لَهُ فَقَدْ أَتَى حَدًّا لَا يَحِلُّ لَهُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ وَلَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا فَقَأَ عَيْنَهُ لَهُدِرَتْ وَلَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مَرَّ عَلَى بَابٍ لَا سِتْرَ لَهُ فَرَأَى عَوْرَةَ أَهْلِهِ فَلَا خَطِيئَةَ عَلَيْهِ إِنَّمَا الْخَطِيئَةُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ
Sayyiduna Abu Dharr (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever uncovers the curtain and looks into someone’s house without permission, he has committed a crime equivalent to the legal limit; it was not lawful for him to do so. And if someone were to gouge out his eye, then his eye would be wasted and without compensation. If a person passes by a door that has no curtain and sees something private in the house, he will not be blamed for the mistake; rather, in such a case, the mistake will be attributed to the people of the house.
Hadith 8290
عَنْ سَهْلِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ أَنَّ رَجُلًا اطَّلَعَ عَلَى النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِنْ سِتْرِ حُجْرَتِهِ وَفِي يَدِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مِدْرًى فَقَالَ لَوْ أَعْلَمُ أَنَّ هَذَا يَنْظُرُنِي حَتَّى آتِيَهُ لَطَعَنْتُ بِالْمِدْرَى فِي عَيْنِهِ وَهَلْ جُعِلَ الِاسْتِئْذَانُ إِلَّا مِنْ أَجْلِ الْبَصَرِ
Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa’d Sa’idi (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that a man looked through the curtain hanging at the chamber of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), and the Prophet had a comb in his hand. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If I had known that he was looking at me, I would have come close and struck his eye with this comb. Permission to enter has been legislated because of the (harm of) looking.
Hadith 8291
عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَنِ اطَّلَعَ عَلَى قَوْمٍ فِي بَيْتِهِمْ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنِهِمْ فَقَدْ حَلَّ لَهُمْ أَنْ يَفْقَئُوا عَيْنَهُ
Sayyiduna Abu Hurairah (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Whoever peeps into people's houses without their permission, they are permitted to gouge out his eye.
