Narrated Abu As-Sawar Al-Adawi: 'Imran bin Husain said, the Prophet (ﷺ) said, "Haya' (pious shyness) does not bring anything except good." Thereupon Bashir bin Ka'b said, "It is written in the wisdom paper: Haya' leads to solemnity; Haya' leads to tranquility (peace of mind)." 'Imran said to him, "I am narrating to you the saying of Allah's Messenger (ﷺ) and you are speaking about your paper (wisdom book)?"
