قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص الْحَيَاءُ مِنَ الْإِيمَانِ فَقِيلَ الْحَيَاءُ بِالْإِيمَانِ وَ الْإِيمَانُ بِالْحَيَاءِ وَ صَاحِبُ الْحَيَاءِ خَيْرٌ كُلُّهُ وَ مَنْ حُرِمَ الْحَيَاءَ فَهُوَ شَرٌّ كُلُّهُ وَ إِنْ تَعَبَّدَ وَ تَوَرَّعَ وَ إِنَّ خُطْوَةً يُتَخَطَّى فِي سَاحَاتِ هَيْبَةِ اللَّهِ تَعَالَى بِالْحَيَاءِ مِنْهُ إِلَيْهِ خَيْرٌ مِنْ عِبَادَةِ سَبْعِينَ سَنَةً وَ الْوَقَاحَةُ صَدْرُ النِّفَاقِ وَ الشِّقَاقِ وَ الْكُفْرِ The Prophet -saww said: ‘The modesty is from the Eman.
The modesty is tied with the Eman and the Eman with the modesty, and the owner of modest is good, all of it, and the one who is deprived of the modesty, so he is evil, all of it, and even if he were to worship, and is devout, and the steps he takes in the prestige of Allah -azwj the Exalted with the modesty from him to Him is better than worship of seventy years, and the insolence is the main trait of the hypocrisy, and the wretchedness, and the Kufr.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا لَمْ تَسْتَحِ فَافْعَلْ مَا شِئْتَ أَيْ إِذَا فَارَقْتَ الْحَيَاءَ فَكُلُّ مَا عَمِلْتَ مِنْ خَيْرٍ وَ شَرٍّ فَأَنْتَ بِهِ مُعَاقَبٌ Rasool-Allah -saww said: ‘When you have no shame, then do whatever you so desire to, i.e. when the modesty is separated, then all what you do, from good and evil, then you are with its Punishment.
وَ قُوَّةُ الْحَيَاءِ مِنَ الْحُزْنِ وَ الْخَوْفِ وَ الْحَيَاءُ مَسْكَنُ الْخَشْيَةِ فَالْحَيَاءُ أَوَّلُهُ الْهَيْبَةُ وَ صَاحِبُ الْحَيَاءِ مُشْتَغِلٌ بِشَأْنِهِ مُعْتَزِلٌ مِنَ النَّاسِ مُزْدَجَرٌ عَمَّا هُمْ فِيهِ وَ لَوْ تُرِكَ صَاحِبُ الْحَيَاءِ مَا جَالَسَ أَحَداً And the strength of modesty is from the grief and the fear, and the modesty is a dwelling of the fear.
So, the modesty, it’s beginning is the aw, and the owner of the modesty is pre-occupied with its concern, isolated from the people, deterred from what they are in, and if the owner of modesty were to be left, he would not sit with anyone.
قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص إِذَا أَرَادَ اللَّهُ بِعَبْدٍ خَيْراً أَلْهَاهُ عَنْ مَحَاسِنِهِ وَ جَعَلَ مَسَاوِيَهُ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ وَ كَرَّهَهُ مُجَالَسَةَ الْمُعْرِضِينَ عَنْ ذِكْرِ اللَّهِ Rasool-Allah -saww said: ‘When Allah -azwj Wants good with a servant, He -azwj Diverts his attention away from his good deed and Makes his evil deed in front of his eyes, and he dislikes gatherings of the ones turned away from the Zikr of Allah -azwj .
