Sahih al-Bukhari 6241

Hadith text

Narrated Sahl bin Sa`d:A man peeped through a round hole into the dwelling place of the Prophet, while the Prophet (ﷺ) had a Midray (an iron comb) with which he was scratching his head. the Prophet (ﷺ) said, " Had known you were looking (through the hole), I would have pierced your eye with it (i.e., the comb)." Verily! The order of taking permission to enter has been enjoined because of that sight, (that one should not look unlawfully at the state of others). (See Hadith No. 807, Vol)

Sahl bin Sa'd bataate hain: Ek shaks ne ek gol chhed se Nabi (SAW) ke ghar mein jhaanka, jabke Nabi (SAW) ke paas ek Midrai (loha kanghi) thi jisse wo apna sar khujla rahe the. Nabi (SAW) ne kaha, 'Agar mujhe pata hota ke tum (chhed se) jhaank rahe ho, to main isse tumhaari aankh chubho deta.' Beshak! Andar aane ki ijaazat maangne ka hukm isi nazaare (waqia) ki wajah se diya gaya hai, (taake koi doosron ki haalat ko na-jaayez tareeke se na dekhe). (Poori tafseel ke liye Hadees No. 807, Jild 4 dekhein.)
