A Visitor is not an Inspector When you enter a home whether as a visitor or an overnight guest; do not closely examine its contents as an inspector would. Limit your observation to what you need to see. Do not open closed closets or boxes. Do not inspect a wallet, a package, or a covered object. This is against Islamic manners and an impolite betrayal of the trust your host has accorded to you. Uphold these manners during your visit and seek to cultivate your host's love and respect, may Allah bless and protect you. Imam al-Muhasibi in Risalat al-Mustarshidin said: "The duty of sight is to preclude forbidden sights and not to try to see what has been hidden or covered. Likewise Dawud al-Tai'y said: 'I was told we would be accountable for our minor gazes, as we are accountable for our minor deeds.'" The Arab poet, Miskin al-Darimi said: My neighbour need not worry if his door was not closed Source: "Islamic Manners" - Abdul Fattah Abu Ghudda, Vol 1, pp. 43-44
