Would you -ra love to enter the Paradise?’ قُلْتُ نَعَمْ فِدَاكَ أَبِي I -ra said, ‘Yes, may my -ra father be sacrificed for you -saww !’ قَالَ فَاقْصِرْ مِنَ الْأَمَلِ وَ اجْعَلِ الْمَوْتَ نُصْبَ عَيْنَيْكَ وَ اسْتَحِ مِنَ اللَّهِ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ He -saww said: ‘ Shorten your wishes and make the death to be in front of your eyes and be embarrassed from Allah -azwj as is the right of being embarrassed !’ قَالَ قُلْتُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ كُلُّنَا نَسْتَحِي مِنَ اللَّهِ He (Abu Zarr -ra said), ‘I -ra said, ‘O Rasool-Allah -saww !
All of us are embarrassed from Allah -azwj !’ قَالَ لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ الْحَيَاءَ وَ لَكِنَّ الْحَيَاءَ مِنَ اللَّهِ أَنْ لَا تَنْسَى الْمَقَابِرَ وَ الْبِلَى وَ الْجَوْفَ وَ مَا وَعَى وَ الرَّأْسَ وَ مَنْ حَوَى وَ مَنْ أَرَادَ كَرَامَةَ الْآخِرَةِ فَلْيَدَعْ زِينَةَ الدُّنْيَا فَإِذَا كُنْتَ كَذَلِكَ أَصَبْتَ وَلَايَةَ اللَّهِ- He -saww said: ‘That isn’t the embarrassment, but the embarrassment from Allah -azwj is that you don’t forget the graves and the decay , and the interior (stomach) from what it contains, and the head from what it whims, and the one who wants the honours of the Hereafter, let him leave adornments of the world.
When you were to be like that, you will attain the Wilayah of Allah -azwj ’’. Also in a similar Hadith: ب، قرب الإسناد مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عِيسَى عَنِ الْقَدَّاحِ عَنْ جَعْفَرٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَ قَالَ النَّبِيُّ ص اسْتَحْيُوا مِنَ اللَّهِ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ (The book) ‘Qurb Al Asnaad’ – Muhammad Bin Isa, from Al Qaddah, ‘From Ja’far -asws , from his -asws father -asws having said: ‘The Prophet -saww said: ‘Be embarrassed from Allah -azwj as is the right of embarrassment!’ قَالُوا وَ مَا نَفْعَلُ يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ They said, ‘And what shall we do, O Rasool-Allah -saww !’ قَالَ فَإِنْ كُنْتُمْ فَاعِلِينَ فَلَا يَبِيتَنَّ أَحَدُكُمْ إِلَّا وَ أَجَلُهُ بَيْنَ عَيْنَيْهِ وَ لْيَحْفَظِ الرَّأْسَ وَ مَا وَعَى وَ الْبَطْنَ وَ مَا حَوَى وَ لْيَذْكُرِ الْقَبْرَ وَ الْبِلَى وَ مَنْ أَرَادَ الْآخِرَةَ فَلْيَدَعْ زِينَةَ الْحَيَاةِ الدُّنْيَا.
He -saww said: ‘If you were to do, then not one of you should spend a night except and his death should be in front of his eyes and let him preserve the head and what it has retained, and the belly and what it contains, and let him remember the grave and the decay; and the one who wants the Hereafter, let him leave adornments of the worldly life ’’.
