[Machine] The Messenger of Allah ﷺ said, "Fear Allah as he deserves with true modesty." They said, "O Messenger of Allah, we do have modesty and praise be to Allah." He said, "That is not what I meant. But whoever truly fears Allah with modesty, let him guard his head and what it contains, his stomach and what it conceals, and let him remember death and calamity. And whoever desires the Hereafter should abandon the adornments of this world. Whoever does that has truly feared Allah with true modesty."

قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ ﷺ «اسْتَحُوا مِنَ اللهِ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ» قَالُوا يَا رَسُولَ اللهِ إِنَّا لَنَسْتَحْيِي وَالْحَمْدُ لِلَّهِ قَالَ «لَيْسَ ذَلِكَ وَلَكِنْ مَنِ اسْتَحْيَى مِنَ اللهِ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ فَلْيَحْفَظِ الرَّأْسَ وَمَا حَوَى وَالْبَطْنَ وَمَا وَعَى وَلْيَذْكُرِ الْمَوْتَ وَالْبِلَى وَمَنْ أَرَادَ الْآخِرَةَ تَرَكَ زِينَةَ الدُّنْيَا فَمَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ فَقَدِ اسْتَحْيَى مِنَ اللهِ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ»

" Have Haya' for Allah as is His due." [He said:] We said: "O Prophet of Allah! We have Haya', and all praise is due to Allah." He said: "Not that, but having the Haya' for Allah which He is due is to protect the head and what it contains and to protect the insides and what it includes, and to remember death and the trial, and whoever intends the Hereafter, he leaves the adornments of the world. So whoever does that, then he has indeed fulfilled Haya', meaning the Haya' which Allah is due."
