Sahih Muslim 37b
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ حَبِيبٍ الْحَارِثِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادُ بْنُ زَيْدٍ، عَنْ إِسْحَاقَ، - وَهُوَ ابْنُ سُوَيْدٍ - أَنَّ أَبَا قَتَادَةَ، حَدَّثَ قَالَ كُنَّا عِنْدَ عِمْرَانَ بْنِ حُصَيْنٍ فِي رَهْطٍ مِنَّا وَفِينَا بُشَيْرُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ فَحَدَّثَنَا عِمْرَانُ، يَوْمَئِذٍ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم " الْحَيَاءُ خَيْرٌ كُلُّهُ " . قَالَ أَوْ قَالَ " الْحَيَاءُ كُلُّهُ خَيْرٌ " . فَقَالَ بُشَيْرُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ إِنَّا لَنَجِدُ فِي بَعْضِ الْكُتُبِ أَوِ الْحِكْمَةِ أَنَّ مِنْهُ سَكِينَةً وَوَقَارًا لِلَّهِ وَمِنْهُ ضَعْفٌ . قَالَ فَغَضِبَ عِمْرَانُ حَتَّى احْمَرَّتَا عَيْنَاهُ وَقَالَ أَلاَ أُرَانِي أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَتُعَارِضُ فِيهِ . قَالَ فَأَعَادَ عِمْرَانُ الْحَدِيثَ قَالَ فَأَعَادَ بُشَيْرٌ فَغَضِبَ عِمْرَانُ قَالَ فَمَا زِلْنَا نَقُولُ فِيهِ إِنَّهُ مِنَّا يَا أَبَا نُجَيْدٍ إِنَّهُ لاَ بَأْسَ بِهِ .
Yahya ibn Habib al-Harithi narrated to us; Hammad ibn Zayd narrated to us, from Ishaq—namely, Ibn Suwayd—that Abu Qatadah related: We were with Imran ibn Husayn among a group of ours, and Bushayr ibn Ka'b was among us. That day Imran related to us that the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said, ‘Modesty is all good,’ or he said, ‘Modesty is entirely good.’ Bushayr ibn Ka'b said, ‘We find in some books—or in wisdom—that some of it is tranquility and dignity for Allah, and some of it is weakness.’ Imran became so angry that his eyes reddened, and he said, ‘Am I not relating to you from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and you are opposing it?’ Imran repeated the hadith, and Bushayr repeated his statement. Imran became angry. We kept saying to him, ‘He is one of us, Abu Nujayd; there is nothing wrong with him.’
