Arabic text

4861 - أَخْبَرَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنْ أَبِي الزِّنَادِ، عَنْ الْأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ: «لَوْ أَنَّ امْرَأً اطَّلَعَ عَلَيْكَ بِغَيْرِ إِذْنٍ فَخَذَفْتَهُ فَفَقَأْتَ عَيْنَهُ، مَا كَانَ عَلَيْكَ حَرَجٌ» وَقَالَ مَرَّةً أُخْرَى: «جُنَاحٌ»

Commentary

A person who peeps secretly into people's houses would be reckoned a criminal only when he attempts to peep through closed doors or looks by lifting the curtain or veil, but if the door is wide open and there is no curtain, then the person peeping is not a criminal. It is the fault of the people of the household.
