Hadith 12254

عَنْ عَائِشَةَ أُمِّ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَآلِهِ وَسَلَّمَ كَانَ جَالِسًا كَاشِفًا عَنْ فَخِذِهِ فَاسْتَأْذَنَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ وَهُوَ عَلَى حَالِهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عُمَرُ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ وَهُوَ عَلَى حَالِهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عُثْمَانُ فَأَرْخَى عَلَيْهِ ثِيَابَهُ فَلَمَّا قَامُوا قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلَيْكَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ فَأَذِنْتَ لَهُمَا وَأَنْتَ عَلَى حَالِكَ فَلَمَّا اسْتَأْذَنَ عُثْمَانُ أَرْخَيْتَ عَلَيْكَ ثِيَابَكَ فَقَالَ ”يَا عَائِشَةُ أَلَا أَسْتَحْيِي مِنْ رَجُلٍ وَاللَّهِ إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ تَسْتَحْيِي مِنْهُ“
It is narrated from Sayyidah Aisha (may Allah be pleased with her) that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting and his thigh was uncovered. In the meantime, Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission to enter. He was granted permission and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained seated in the same manner. After him, Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission to enter. He too was granted permission and the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) remained seated in the same manner. After them, when Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission to enter, the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) covered himself with his garment. When all the people had left, I said: O Messenger of Allah! Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) and Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission to be present before you and you allowed them to enter while you remained in the same state, but when Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) sought permission to enter, you covered yourself with your garment. What is the reason for this difference? The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Aisha! Should I not show modesty before a man, by Allah! before whom even the angels show modesty.
