Majma al-Zawaid 12804 — Seeking permission, and one who looks

وَعَنْ أَبِي ذَرٍّ قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ - صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - :
" أَيُّمَا رَجُلٍ كَشَفَ سِتْرًا ، فَأَدْخَلَ بَصَرَهُ قَبْلَ أَنْ يُؤْذَنَ لَهُ ، فَقَدْ أَتَى حَدًّا لَا يَحِلُّ لَهُ أَنْ يَأْتِيَهُ ، وَلَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا فَقَأَ عَيْنَهُ لَهَدَرَتْ ، وَلَوْ أَنَّ رَجُلًا مَرَّ عَلَى بَابٍ لَا سِتْرَ لَهُ ، فَرَأَى عَوْرَةً ، فَلَا خَطِيئَةَ عَلَيْهِ ، إِنَّمَا الْخَطِيئَةُ عَلَى أَهْلِ الْبَيْتِ " .
قُلْتُ : عَزَاهُ إِلَى التِّرْمِذِيِّ وَلَمْ أَجِدْهُ .
رَوَاهُ أَحْمَدُ . وَفِيهِ ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ، وَفِيهِ ضَعْفٌ ، وَبَقِيَّةُ رِجَالِهِ رِجَالُ الصَّحِيحِ .
Sayyiduna Abu Dharr al-Ghifari (may Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Any man who draws aside a curtain and sends his gaze (into the house) before he has been given permission has committed something that was not permissible for him. If someone were to put out his eye, that eye would go unavenged. And if a man passes by a door that has no curtain and sees something private, there is no sin upon him, for the fault lies with the people of the house." (Allamah al-Haythami says:) He attributed this narration to Imam al-Tirmidhi, but I have not found it there.
Imam Ahmad recorded it. Its chain contains Ibn Lahi'ah, who has some weakness. The remaining narrators of this report are the narrators of the Sahih.
