Al-HAYAA (Shyness) part 2

The second type of hayaa is an admirable characteristic which shapes how one acts and interacts with others.

Hayaa is often frowned upon in some societies and mistaken for TIMIDNESS however there is a great difference between the two.
?️Hayaa is actually a praised characteristic which we as Muslims should aspire to obtain and maintain.
?️It is is so beloved to الله that He made the last Nabi -our finest example- a very shy man.
Daleel:
عن أبي سعيد الخدري رضي الله عنه قال:
 ((كان رسول الله صلى الله عليه و على آله وسلم أشدَّ حياءً مِن العَذْراء في خِدَرِها ...))
Translation
It is reported that Abu Saeed Al-Khudri رضي الله عنه said,
"Rasoolulaah صلى الله عليه وعلى آله وسلم was more shy that a virgin girl in her خِدْر (khidr)." Saheeh Muslim #5982 (1)
خِدْر
Ie. a section of a home screened by a curtain to make an area of privacy for the virgin girls in the household due to their shyness.
?️Ibn Al-Qayyim رحمه الله تعالى said Hayaa has been defined as "هَيْبَة (Haibah) found in the heart" (end quote) (2)

This word هيبة means prestige, honour, esteem respect etc
So to have shyness (to be shy) is direct evidence of honour and prestige which exists within the heart of that person.
Due to this shy people generally;
?Have dignity
?Are respected by others due to their shyness
?Choose their words carefully
?Speak with wisdom
?Are humble
?Avoid shameful situations
?Have a good reputation
?Are reserved and composed

?All of this is protection from shameful, undignified, dishonorable speech and actions and the more prestige and dignity in the heart the more hayaa the person posesses.

تكبيرات عشرة ذي الجحة

(The Takbeerat of The Ten Days of Thul Hijjah)

There is a Sunnah of the first ten days of Thul Hijjah which has become neglected by many in the West, which we can all revive seeking reward from الله تعالى.
It is the Sunnah of saying the Takbeerat in the first 10 days of Dhul Hijjah
i.e to say the takbeerat of Eid in these 9 days and on Eid Al-Adhaa.
Daleel:
قوله تعلى
{وَيَذْكُرُوا اسْمَ اللَّهِ فِي أَيَّامٍ مَّعْلُومَاتٍ}
Surah Al-Hajj:28
The meaning is we are to mention the name of الله in the ten days that are well known.

Ibn Abaas رضي الله عنه said this means to say the Takbeeraat in the first ten days (of Thul Hijjah) and as for the speech of الله,
{وَاذْكُرُوا اللَّهَ فِي أَيَّامٍ مَّعْدُودَاتٍ ۚ}
(Meaning mention Allah in the numbered days...)
Surah Al-Baqara:203
This is to say the Takbeerat in the days of Tashreek (i.e the three days following Eid Al-Adhaa, the 11th, 12th, and 13th)

Refer to the tafseer of Ibn Katheer of Al-Baqara: 203 and Al-Hajj: 28

The Sunnah of the Takbeerat of the first ten days are general and are to be said at any time during these days.
The takbeerat said on the 11th 12th and 13th are only to be said after each salah until Asr prayer on the 13th.
