at-Tajassus - You must know not to spy on anyone. Allah says,

“O you who believe! Avoid most doubt [about one another] for, behold, most of [such] doubt is [in itself] a sin; and do not spy upon one another, and neither allow yourselves to speak ill of one another behind your backs. Would any of you like to eat the flesh of his dead brother? Nay, you would loathe it! And be conscious of Allah. Verily, Allah is an acceptor of repentance, a dispenser of grace!” al-Qur’an, Surah al-Hujurat, 49: 12

Abu Hurairah (ra) said:

"Whosoever looks into others’ houses without permission, it is Halal for them to remove his eye, the Prophet (saw) said so and he has no blood money," Saheeh al-Muslim, Hadith no. 2158
