حَدَّثَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ ، عَنْ إِسْحَاق بْنِ سُوَيْدٍ ، عَنْ أَبِي قَتَادَةَ ، قَالَ : كُنَّا مَعَ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ ، وَثَمَّ بُشَيْرُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ ،فَحَدَّثَ عِمْرَانُ بْنُ حُصَيْنٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ : الْحَيَاءُ خَيْرٌ كُلُّهُ ، أَوْ قَالَ : الْحَيَاءُ كُلُّهُ خَيْرٌ " ، فَقَالَ بُشَيْرُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ : إِنَّا نَجِدُ فِي بَعْضِ الْكُتُبِ أَنَّ مِنْهُ سَكِينَةً وَوَقَارًا ، وَمِنْهُ ضَعْفًا ، فَأَعَادَ عِمْرَانُ الْحَدِيثَ ، وَأَعَادَ بُشَيْرٌ الْكَلَامَ ، قَالَ : فَغَضِبَ عِمْرَانُ حَتَّى احْمَرَّتْ عَيْنَاهُ ، وَقَالَ : أَلَا أُرَانِي أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ، وَتُحَدِّثُنِي عَنْ كُتُبِكَ ، قَالَ : قُلْنَا : يَا أَبَا نُجَيْدٍ إِيهٍ إِيهِ .
Abu Qatadah said: We were sitting with Imran bin Hussain and Bushair bin Kaab was also there. Imran bin Hussain reported the Messenger of Allah ﷺ as saying: Modesty is a good altogether, or he said: Modesty is altogether good. Bushair bin Kaab said: We find in some books that there is a modesty which produces peace and dignified bearing, and there is a modesty which produces weakness. Imran bin Hussain repeated the same words. So Imran became angry so much so that his eyes became red, and he said: Don’t you see that i am transmitting a tradition from the Messenger of Allah ﷺ and you are mentioning something from your books? He (Qatadah) said: We said: Abu Nujaid, it is sufficient.

Benefits and Issues:
➊ Abu Nujayd is the kunyah of Imran bin Husayn radi Allahu anhu.
➋ The statement of Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam is comprehensive and precise in its apparent meaning; therefore, it is not permissible in any way for a believer to make baseless interpretations of his sallallahu alayhi wa sallam's statement.
➌ When advising a believer, it is appropriate to show a moderate amount of anger. Excessive anger sometimes leads to incorrect outcomes.
