Hadith for the day on modesty

A'ishah radhiyAllahu anha reported that Allah's Messenger salallahu alayhe wassalam was lying down in his house with his thighs exposed.

Abu Bakr radhiyAllahu anhu asked for permission to enter, and the Prophet permitted him while he was in that state.

`Umar radhiyAllahu anhu then asked for permission to enter and he permitted him, while he was still in that state and he talked to him.

`Uthman radhiyAllahu anhu then asked for permission to enter and the Prophet sat up and fixed his garments, then he admitted him and talked to him.

When he left A'ishah said , "Abu Bakr entered and you did not stir and did not observe much care (in arranging your clothes),
then `Umar entered and you did not stir and did not arrange your clothes, then `Uthman entered and you got up and set your clothes right!? " He Replied :

"Should I not be shy in the presence of that of whom the angels are Shy? "

[Sahih Muslim]
