Caution: Translations of Quran and Ḥadīth may lead to possible misapplications and misinterpretations. This site is intended for students of sacred knowledge that are proficient in comprehending classical Arabic and have a strong foundation in Islamic sciences. Also note that religious injunctions rely on several aspects beyond what one may glean through reading individual aḥādīth.
quran:15:18

Except one who steals a hearing and is pursued by a clear burning flame.  

except the one who listens by stealth — he is pursued by a clear flame, a shining meteor that burns him, or pierces him or drives him insane.
القرآن:١٥:١٨

إِلَّا مَنِ اسْتَرَقَ السَّمْعَ فَأَتْبَعَهُ شِهَابٌ مُبِينٌ  

{إلا} لكن {من استرق السمع} خطفه {فأتبعه شهاب مبين} كوكب يضيء ويحرقه أو يثقبه أو يخبله.
