Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah

Hazrat Sahl bin Sa’d narrates that a man peeped into one of the rooms of the Holy Prophet Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him). The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) had a comb with which he was scratching his head. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: If I had known that you were looking, I would have struck this into your eye. Seeking permission is only for the sake of looking.

It is narrated from Hazrat Anas that the Noble Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was in his house when a man peeped through a hole in the door. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) aimed a comb at him (to strike him), so the man moved back.

It is narrated from Hazrat Abu Hurairah that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: If a person peeps at a people without their permission, it is permissible for them to gouge out his eye.

Hazrat Huzail narrates that the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: If a person looks into people's house through a skylight and a stone is thrown towards him, and his eye is blinded, then this injury will be without liability. And (Imam) Abu Hanifa's opinion has been mentioned that compensation will be given.
