Al-Adab Al-Mufrad 1092
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ بْنُ يَزِيدَ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ عَطَاءِ بْنِ دِينَارٍ، عَنْ عَمَّارِ بْنِ سَعْدٍ التُّجِيبِيِّ قَالَ: قَالَ عُمَرُ بْنُ الْخَطَّابِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ: مَنْ مَلَأَ عَيْنَيْهِ مِنْ قَاعَةِ بَيْتٍ، قَبْلَ أَنْ يُؤْذَنَ لَهُ، فَقَدْ فَسَقَ.

Umar ibn al-Khattab said: Whoever fills his eyes with the inside of a house before permission has been granted to him has acted wickedly.
Notes and open questions — unreviewed
فَسَقَ means to transgress or act wickedly; the idiom مَلَأَ عَيْنَيْهِ means to look fully into the house.
فَقَدْ فَسَقَ
The Arabic is stronger: he has transgressed or acted wickedly.
Should “gone astray” be strengthened to “transgressed”?
