Musnad Abi Ya'la 6947 — once the Messenger of Allah ﷺ was sitting
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ أَبِي بَكْرٍ الْمُقَدَّمِيُّ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبُو مَعْشَرٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبَانَ قَالَ : حَدَّثَنِي أَبِي ، عَنْ أَبَانَ بْنِ عُثْمَانَ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ قَالَ : بَيْنَا رَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - جَالِسٌ وَعَائِشَةُ وَرَاءَهُ ، إِذِ اسْتَأْذَنَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَدَخَلَ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عُمَرُ فَدَخَلَ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عَلِيٌّ فَدَخَلَ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ سَعْدُ بْنُ مَالِكٍ فَدَخَلَ ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عُثْمَانُ بْنُ عَفَّانَ فَدَخَلَ ، وَرَسُولُ اللهِ - صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ - يَتَحَدَّثُ كَاشِفًا عَنْ رُكْبَتِهِ ، فَمَدَّ ثَوْبَهُ عَلَى رُكْبَتَيْهِ وَقَالَ لِامْرَأَتِهِ : اسْتَأْخِرِي عَنِّي ، فَتَحَدَّثُوا سَاعَةً ، ثُمَّ خَرَجُوا ، قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ : فَقُلْتُ : يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ ، دَخَلَ عَلَيْكَ أَصْحَابُكَ فَلَمْ تُصْلِحْ ثَوْبَكَ ، وَلَمْ تُؤَخِّرْنِي عَنْكَ حَتَّى دَخَلَ عُثْمَانُ ؟ فَقَالَ : يَا عَائِشَةُ ، أَلَا أَسْتَحِي مِنْ رَجُلٍ تَسْتَحِي مِنْهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ ؟ وَالَّذِي نَفْسُ مُحَمَّدٍ بِيَدِهِ ، إِنَّ الْمَلَائِكَةَ لَتَسْتَحِي مِنْ عُثْمَانَ كَمَا تَسْتَحِي مِنَ اللهِ وَرَسُولِهِ ، وَلَوْ دَخَلَ وَأَنْتِ قَرِيبَةٌ مِنِّي ، لَمْ يَرْفَعْ رَأْسَهُ ، وَلَمْ يَتَحَدَّثْ حَتَّى يَخْرُجَ .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abdullah bin Umar (may Allah be pleased with them both) that once the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting and Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) was (present) behind him (peace and blessings be upon him). Then Sayyiduna Abu Bakr (may Allah be pleased with him) asked permission and came in; then Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) asked permission and he too came in; then Sayyiduna Ali (may Allah be pleased with him) asked permission and came in; then Sayyiduna Sa'd bin Malik (may Allah be pleased with him) asked permission and he too came in; then Sayyiduna Uthman bin Affan (may Allah be pleased with him) asked permission and he too came into his presence. During this time the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was talking, and his (peace and blessings be upon him) blessed knee was uncovered. So he (peace and blessings be upon him) drew his garment over both his knees and said to his wife: "Move back a little from me." Those men talked for a while and then left. Sayyidah Aishah (may Allah be pleased with her) said: I said: "O Messenger of Allah! Your (other) Companions came to you, yet you neither adjusted your garment nor told me to move back from you, until Sayyiduna Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) came (and then you did so)?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "O Aishah! Should I not feel shy before a man before whom even the angels feel shy? By the One in whose Hand is the soul of Muhammad (peace and blessings be upon him)! The angels feel shy before Uthman just as they feel shy before Allah and His Messenger. And had he come in while you were close to me, he would not have raised his head (out of intense modesty) and would not have spoken until he left."
