Imam Sadiq (a.s) quoted on the authority of God's Prophet (a.s)
“May God bless a servant who is shy before his Lord. Real shyness is covering up the head, watching out what you eat, remembering the grave and affliction and remembering that there is a return to the Hereafter for us.”
عن الصادق (عليه السلام) قال
قال رسول الله (صلى الله عليه وآله): رحم الله عبدا استحيى من ربه، حق الحياء حفظ الرأس وما حوى، والبطن وما وعى، وذكر القبر والبلى، وذكر أن له في الآخرة معادا.
