The Forty Hadiths of al-Nawawi

00:00:04.000 --> 00:00:13.410
On the authority of Abu Mas'ud 'Uqbah ibn 'Amr al-Ansari al-Badri, may Allah be pleased with him, who said:

00:00:13.410 --> 00:00:17.410
The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings of Allah be upon him, said:

00:00:17.410 --> 00:00:22.539
"Among the words of the early prophecy that have reached the people is this:

00:00:22.539 --> 00:00:26.539
'If you feel no shame, then do as you wish.'"

00:00:26.539 --> 00:00:31.780
It was recorded by al-Bukhari.

00:00:31.780 --> 00:00:36.780
This hadith clarifies that modesty is a noble trait among the characteristics of the prophets.

00:00:36.780 --> 00:00:40.780
It serves as a standard that regulates human behavior.

00:00:40.780 --> 00:00:46.780
For modesty prevents a person from falling into sins and shameful deeds.

00:00:46.780 --> 00:00:53.840
The meaning of the hadith is that whoever loses their sense of modesty has nothing left to deter them from evil.

00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:57.869
Consequently, they fall into sins without fear or shame.

00:00:57.869 --> 00:01:01.869
Indeed, modesty is a sign of a living heart and the perfection of faith.

00:01:01.869 --> 00:01:06.870
It compels the Muslim to perform good deeds and abandon what is reprehensible.

00:01:06.870 --> 00:01:12.870
Because whoever feels shame before Allah monitors their actions and rectifies their conduct.
