حَدَّثَنَا رَوْحٌ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو خَالِدٍ، عَنْ عَبْدِ اللهِ بْنِ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ الْمُدَنِيِّ (٢) ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَتْنِي حَفْصَةُ ابْنَةُ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ، قَالَتْ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ ذَاتَ يَوْمٍ قَدْ وَضَعَ ثَوْبَهُ بَيْنَ فَخِذَيْهِ، فَجَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَاسْتَأْذَنَ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ وَهُوَ عَلَى هَيْئَتِهِ، ثُمَّ عُمَرُ بِمِثْلِ هَذِهِ الْقِصَّةِ، ثُمَّ عَلِيٌّ، ثُمَّ نَاسٌ مِنْ أَصْحَابِهِ، وَالنَّبِيُّ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ عَلَى هَيْئَتِهِ، ثُمَّ جَاءَ عُثْمَانُ، فَاسْتَأْذَنَ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ، فَأَخَذَ ثَوْبَهُ (٣) فَتَجَلَّلَهُ، فَتَحَدَّثُوا، ثُمَّ خَرَجُوا. قُلْتُ: يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ، جَاءَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ، وَعُمَرُ، وَعَلِيٌّ وَسَائِرُ أَصْحَابِكَ، وَأَنْتَ عَلَى هَيْئَتِكَ، فَلَمَّا جَاءَ عُثْمَانُ، تَجَلَّلْتَ بِثَوْبِكَ فَقَالَ: " أَلَا، ، أَسْتَحْيِي مِمَّنْ تَسْتَحْيِي (١) مِنْهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ " (٢)،

Translation

English translation

Narrated from Hafsa that once the Prophet (peace be upon him) was sitting with his clothes gathered and placed over his thighs, when Abu Bakr came and sought permission. The Prophet (peace be upon him) granted him permission and remained seated in the same manner. Then Umar, then Ali, and other companions came one after another, but the Prophet (peace be upon him) continued to sit in the same state. After a little while, Uthman came and sought permission. The Prophet (peace be upon him) granted him permission and covered his legs with his garment. They all sat for a while, conversed, and then left. After they had gone, I said, "O Messenger of Allah, Abu Bakr, Umar, Ali, and other companions came to you, but you remained seated in the same manner. When Uthman came, you covered your legs with your garment." The Prophet (peace be upon him) said, "Should I not show modesty to the one before whom even the angels show modesty?"
