Our house windows overlook the neighbour's yard.

Question

Our house windows overlook the neighbour's yard. Is this permissible?

Answer

No, it is not permissible. Raise your boundary walls to prevent looking into the neighbour's premises. It is un-Islamic to have windows positioned in such a way that the privacy and purdah of the neighbours are violated.
