Jami at-Tirmidhi 1751 (Book 24, Hadith 32) #27368
The Consequences of Making Images and Listening to People's Conversations

SUMMARY: Making images and listening to people's conversations without their knowledge are both wrong and will be punished by Allah on the Day of Judgement.

Narrated Ibn 'Abbas: That the Messenger of Allah said: "Whoever fashions an image, he will be punished by Allah until he breathes into it - meaning the soul - and he cannot breath (a soul) into it. And whoever listens to a people's conversation, while they have gone away from him for it, then He will have lead poured into his ears on the Day of Judgement". He said: There are narrations on this topic from 'Abdullah bin Mas'ud, Abu Hurairah, Abu Juhaifah, 'Aishah, and Ibn 'Umar. Abu 'Eisa said: The Hadith of Ibn 'Abbas is a Hasan Sahih Hadith.
حَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ‏ "‏ مَنْ صَوَّرَ صُورَةً عَذَّبَهُ اللَّهُ حَتَّى يَنْفُخَ فِيهَا يَعْنِي الرُّوحَ وَلَيْسَ بِنَافِخٍ فِيهَا وَمَنِ اسْتَمَعَ إِلَى حَدِيثِ قَوْمٍ وَهُمْ يَفِرُّونَ بِهِ مِنْهُ صُبَّ فِي أُذُنِهِ الآنُكُ يَوْمَ الْقِيَامَةِ ‏"‏ ‏.‏ قَالَ وَفِي الْبَابِ عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ وَأَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ وَأَبِي جُحَيْفَةَ وَعَائِشَةَ وَابْنِ عُمَرَ ‏.‏ قَالَ أَبُو عِيسَى حَدِيثُ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ صَحِيحٌ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the consequences of making images or listening to people's conversations without their knowledge. According to this hadith, if someone makes an image, they will be punished by Allah until they breathe life into it, which is impossible. Similarly, if someone listens in on a conversation that was not meant for them, then they will have molten lead poured into their ears on the Day of Judgement. This hadith serves as a warning for us not to do these things as we will face severe punishment from Allah if we do so. We should also remember that everything we do is being watched by Allah and He knows all our secrets; therefore it is important for us to stay away from any kind of wrongdoing or sinning.
