1156 - أنا رِفَاعَةُ بْنُ عُمَرَ بْنِ أَبِي رِفَاعَةَ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو بَكْرٍ، أَحْمَدُ بْنُ الْحُسَيْنِ بْنِ عَلِيٍّ السَّدُوسِيُّ الْبَصْرِيُّ إِمْلَاءً مِنْ حِفْظِهِ بِالْجَامِعِ الْعَتِيقِ بِمِصْرَ، نا أَبُو خَلِيفَةَ الْفَضْلُ بْنُ الْحُبَابِ الْجُمَحِيُّ بِالْبَصْرَةَ، نا الْقَعْنَبِيُّ، عَنْ شُعْبَةَ حَ ونا أَبُو الْقَاسِمِ عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ الْعَزِيزِ الْبَغَوِيُّ ابْنُ بِنْتِ مَنِيعٍ، نا عَلِيُّ بْنُ الْجَعْدِ الْجَوْهَرِيُّ، نا شُعْبَةُ، وَشَرِيكٌ، عَنْ مَنْصُورٍ، عَنْ رِبْعِيٍّ، عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: «إِنَّ مِمَّا أَدْرَكَ النَّاسُ مِنْ كَلَامِ النُّبُوَّةِ الْأُولَى إِذَا لَمْ تَسْتَحِ فَاصْنَعْ مَا شِئْتَ»
Sayyiduna Abu Mas’ud (may Allah be pleased with him) reports that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “Indeed, from what the people have obtained of the words of the first Prophethood is this: If you feel no shame, then do whatever you wish.”
Brief Explanation
Explanation:
From these ahadith, it is understood that the importance of modesty and shame (haya) has remained in the laws (shari‘ahs) of all the noble Prophets (alayhimussalam). All the Prophets informed their respective communities of the significance of haya and made them aware that when a person loses modesty and shame, he no longer remains bound by anything; he neither feels shame before the creation of Allah nor does he have haya before Allah Ta‘ala. In other words, he becomes like an unbridled camel. In the Punjabi language, it is said: “Laah chhaddi loi, te kehiye karega koi,” meaning, when the cloak of modesty and shame is cast aside, then what can anyone do to him?
