Sayyiduna Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Whoever lifts a curtain and sends his gaze (into a house) before being given permission has committed an offence liable to a prescribed punishment (hadd); it is not lawful for him to do that. If the man of the house were to gouge out his eye, that eye would go uncompensated. And if a man passes by a door that has no curtain and sees something private of the household, there is no sin upon him, for the fault lies with the people of the house." (Allamah al-Haythami says:) I say: Al-Tirmidhi recorded part of this report.
Ahmad recorded it, and its narrators are the narrators of the Sahih, except for Ibn Lahi'ah, who is hasan al-hadith (fair in narration), though there is weakness in him.
