Anas ibn Malik reported that a bedouin came to the house of the
Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant him peace, and put his
eye to the crack of the door. Therefore the Prophet took an arrow or a
sharp stick and aimed it at the bedouin as to gouge out his eye. The man
left and the Prophet said, "If you had stayed, I would have gouged out
your eye."
حَدَّثَنَا إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ الْعَلاَءِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَمْرُو بْنُ الْحَارِثِ قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ سَالِمٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ الْوَلِيدِ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا يَزِيدُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ، أَنَّ أَبَا حَيٍّ الْمُؤَذِّنَ حَدَّثَهُ، أَنَّ ثَوْبَانَ مَوْلَى رَسُولِ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم حَدَّثَهُ، أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: لاَ يَحِلُّ لِامْرِئٍ مُسْلِمٍ أَنْ يَنْظُرَ إِلَى جَوْفِ بَيْتٍ حَتَّى يَسْتَأْذِنَ، فَإِنْ فَعَلَ فَقَدْ دَخَلَ. وَلاَ يَؤُمُّ قَوْمًا فَيَخُصُّ نَفْسَهُ بِدَعْوَةٍ دُونَهُمْ حَتَّى يَنْصَرِفَ. وَلاَ يُصَلِّي وَهُوَ حَاقِنٌ حَتَّى يَتَخَفَّفَ.
Thawban, the mawla of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless
him and grant him peace, related that the Prophet, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, said, "It is not lawful for a Muslim man to look inside
a house until he has been given permission. If he does so, he has entered.
He should not act as the imam of a people and then single himself out for
supplication to the exclusion of others. He should not pray while he needs
to urinate until he has relieved himself."
Muslim ibn Nadhir said, "A man asked permission to enter from
Hudhayfa. He looked in and said, 'May I come in?' Hudhayfa replied, 'As
for you eye, it has already entered. As for your bottom, it has not entered.'"
