Hadith 3671

(حديث مرفوع) حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدٍ ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبَانُ بْنُ إِسْحَاقَ ، عَنِ الصَّبَّاحِ بْنِ مُحَمَّدٍ ، عَنْ مُرَّةَ الْهَمْدَانِيِّ ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ مَسْعُودٍ ، قَالَ : قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ : " اسْتَحْيُوا مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ " ، قَالَ : قُلْنَا : يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ ، إِنَّا نَسْتَحِي ، وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ ، قَالَ : " لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ ، وَلَكِنْ مَنْ اسْتَحَيى مِنَ اللَّهِ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ ، فَلْيَحْفَظْ الرَّأْسَ وَمَا حَوَى ، وَلْيَحْفَظْ الْبَطْنَ وَمَا وَعَى ، وَلْيَذْكُرْ الْمَوْتَ وَالْبِلَى ، وَمَنْ أَرَادَ الْآخِرَةَ ، تَرَكَ زِينَةَ الدُّنْيَا ، فَمَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ ، فَقَدْ اسْتَحْيَا مِنَ اللَّهِ عَزَّ وَجَلَّ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ " .
It is narrated from Sayyiduna Ibn Mas'ud (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Prophet (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said: "Have modesty before Allah as is His due." We said: O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him)! All praise is for Allah, we do have modesty before Allah. He said: "That is not what I mean. Rather, whoever truly has modesty before Allah as is His due, he should guard his head and what it contains, his stomach and what it gathers, and remember death and decay. Whoever seeks the Hereafter leaves the adornment of the world. Whoever does this has indeed fulfilled the right of modesty before Allah in its true sense."
