Sahih Muslim 37a
حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ الْمُثَنَّى، وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، - وَاللَّفْظُ لاِبْنِ الْمُثَنَّى - قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ جَعْفَرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا شُعْبَةُ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، قَالَ سَمِعْتُ أَبَا السَّوَّارِ، يُحَدِّثُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ عِمْرَانَ بْنَ حُصَيْنٍ، يُحَدِّثُ عَنِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم أَنَّهُ قَالَ " الْحَيَاءُ لاَ يَأْتِي إِلاَّ بِخَيْرٍ " . فَقَالَ بُشَيْرُ بْنُ كَعْبٍ إِنَّهُ مَكْتُوبٌ فِي الْحِكْمَةِ أَنَّ مِنْهُ وَقَارًا وَمِنْهُ سَكِينَةً . فَقَالَ عِمْرَانُ أُحَدِّثُكَ عَنْ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم وَتُحَدِّثُنِي عَنْ صُحُفِكَ .
Muhammad ibn al-Muthanna and Muhammad ibn Bashshar narrated to us—and the wording is Ibn al-Muthanna's. They said: Muhammad ibn Ja'far narrated to us; Shu'bah narrated to us, from Qatadah, who said: I heard Abu al-Sawwar relate that he heard Imran ibn Husayn relate from the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) that he said, ‘Modesty brings nothing but good.’ Bushayr ibn Ka'b said, ‘It is written in the books of wisdom that in it there is dignity and tranquility.’ Imran said, ‘I am relating to you from the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and you are relating to me from your books!’
