Al-Mu'jam al-Awsat 8385 — a man peeped through a hole in the door
حَدَّثَنَا مُوسَى بْنُ سَهْلٍ ، نَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ رُمْحٍ ، نَا ابْنُ لَهِيعَةَ ، حَدَّثَنِي يَزِيدُ بْنُ أَبِي حَبِيبٍ ، وَعَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ زِيَادِ بْنِ سَمْعَانَ ، عَنِ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ ، حَدَّثَنِي سَهْلُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ الْأَنْصَارِيُّ ، أَنَّ رَجُلًا اطَّلَعَ فِي حُجْرٍ فِي بَابِ بَيْتِ رَسُولِ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَمَعَ رَسُولِ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - مِدْرًى يَحُكُّ بِهَا رَأْسَهُ ، فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: لَوْ نَعْلَمُ أَنَّكَ تَنْظُرُنَا لَطَعَنَّا بِهِ فِي عَيْنِكَ ، إِنَّمَا جُعِلَ الْإِذْنُ مِنْ أَجْلِ الْبَصَرِ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Sahl bin Sa'd al-Ansari (may Allah be pleased with him) that a man peeped through a hole in the door of the house of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him). At that time the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had a comb-like instrument (midra) with which he was scratching his head. So the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Had I known that you were looking at me, I would have poked it into your eye. The command to seek permission was laid down only because of the sight."
