THE DAILY ISLAMIC REMINDERS. Yaum al-ithnayn, 4th day of Rabi-ul Awwal. (Monday, 11th of October 2021). RIGHT TO PRIVACY IS STRICT IN ISLAM. BismilLah.
Islam is a complete way of life and right to privacy is an important part of Islam. Checking your husband or wife phone is strictly prohibited and haraam in Islam and that is proving in Qur'an and in Hadith and no difference of opinion among scholars on this topic. Even to enter into someone's room, house, office etc requires strick requirement and let's tackle that first.
The Messenger of ALLAH (Sallallahu alaihi wasallam) said: “Seek permission to enter 3 times by saying Assalaamu Alaikum loudly, If one of you seeks permission to enter three times but is not given permission or no response, then go back.” Narrated by al-Bukhaari (6245).
One should not seek permission to enter aggressively, or bang on the door or ring the bell aggressively, because that is rude and is not polite. It was narrated that Anas ibn Maalik said: People used to knock on the doors of the Prophet (S.A.W) with their fingernails. Narrated by al-Bukhaari in al-Adab al-Mufrad (1080).
If a person is not given permission to enter, he should go back without getting upset, because ALLAH, may HE be exalted, says: “And if you are asked to go back or no one respond to you, go back, for it is purer for you” [an-Noor 24:28].
The requirement to seek permission to enter is not waived if the people are not in the house, because ALLAH, may HE be exalted, says:
“And if you find no one therein, still, enter not until permission has been given” [an-Noor 24:28]. To be continued tomorrow in shaa ALLAH. May ALLAH keep guiding us all and protect us from any satanic influences. Aameen.
