AHADEETH I MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO: 1) Abu Hurayra narrated that the Prophet (pbuh) said, “Two groups of Hellfire I have yet to see … and the other are women who are clothed yet naked, … They shall not enter Jannah, nor even smell its fragrance, even though its fragrance can be smelt for such and such distance.” (Reported by Imam Muslim) 2) Once the Prophet (pbuh) wore a beautiful cloak on Friday … , gifted to him by a neighbouring ruler, and the people said, “We have never seen any garment like this!” To which the Prophet (pbuh) replied, “Are you impressed with this?! Verily the handkerchief of Sa’ad bin Mu’az in Paradise is better than what you see.” (Reported by Imam Tirmidhi) 3) Sayyiduna Abd Allah ibn Umar (Allah be pleased with him) narrates that the Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) passed by a man of Ansar who was admonishing his brother regarding modesty (haya). The Messenger of Allah (Allah bless him & give him peace) said: “Leave him, for modesty is (part) of Faith.” (Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim) RECOMMENDED READING: The Fiqh of Covering One’s Nakedness (Awra): A Detailed Explanation qa.sunnipath.com What is Considered `Awra (Nakedness) for Men? seekersguidance.org
