Yahya ibn Yahya and Muhammad ibn Rumh narrated to us—and the wording is Yahya's—both saying: Layth informed us. And Qutaybah ibn Sa'id narrated to us, saying: Layth narrated to us, from Ibn Shihab, that Sahl ibn Sa'd al-Sa'idi informed him that a man peered through a hole in the door of the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, while the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, had with him a comb with which he was scratching his head. When the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, saw him, he said: "If I had known that you were looking at me, I would have stabbed you in the eye with it." And the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Permission to enter was only prescribed because of the sight."
