[6209] 26 - (2401) ‘Aishah said: "The Messenger of Allāh ﷺ was lying down in my house with his thigh or shin uncovered. Abū Bakr asked for permission to enter and he let him in while he was in that state, and he spoke to him. Then ‘Umar asked for permission to enter and he let him in while he was in that state, and he spoke to him. Then ‘Uthmān asked for permission to enter and the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ sat up and straightened his garment" - Muhammad (one of the narrators) said: "I do not say that this all happened on one day" - "and he came in and he spoke to him. When he left, ‘Aishah said: 'Abū Bakr came in and you did not stir for him, and ‘Umar came in and you did not stir for him, then ‘Uthmān came in and you sat up and straightened your garment.' He (ﷺ) said: 'Should I not feel shy before a man before whom the angels feel shy?'"

36 - (2401) حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، وَيَحْيَى بْنُ أَيُّوبَ، وَقُتَيْبَةُ، وَابْنُ حُجْرٍ - قَالَ: يَحْيَى بْنُ يَحْيَى، أَخْبَرَنَا، وقَالَ الْآخَرُونَ: حَدَّثَنَا - إِسْمَاعِيلُ يَعْنُونَ ابْنَ جَعْفَرٍ، عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ أَبِي حَرْمَلَةَ، عَنْ عَطَاءٍ، وَسُلَيْمَانَ، ابْنَيْ يَسَارٍ، وَأَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ، أَنَّ عَائِشَةَ، قَالَتْ: كَانَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مُضْطَجِعًا فِي بَيْتِي، كَاشِفًا عَنْ فَخِذَيْهِ، أَوْ سَاقَيْهِ، فَاسْتَأْذَنَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَأَذِنَ لَهُ، وَهُوَ عَلَى تِلْكَ الْحَالِ، فَتَحَدَّثَ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عُمَرُ، فَأَذِنَ لَهُ، وَهُوَ كَذَلِكَ، فَتَحَدَّثَ، ثُمَّ اسْتَأْذَنَ عُثْمَانُ، فَجَلَسَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ، وَسَوَّى ثِيَابَهُ - قَالَ مُحَمَّدٌ: وَلَا أَقُولُ ذَلِكَ فِي يَوْمٍ وَاحِدٍ - فَدَخَلَ فَتَحَدَّثَ، فَلَمَّا خَرَجَ قَالَتْ عَائِشَةُ: دَخَلَ أَبُو بَكْرٍ فَلَمْ تَهْتَشَّ لَهُ وَلَمْ تُبَالِهِ، ثُمَّ دَخَلَ عُمَرُ فَلَمْ تَهْتَشَّ لَهُ وَلَمْ تُبَالِهِ، ثُمَّ دَخَلَ عُثْمَانُ فَجَلَسْتَ وَسَوَّيْتَ ثِيَابَكَ فَقَالَ: «أَلَا أَسْتَحِي مِنْ رَجُلٍ تَسْتَحِي مِنْهُ الْمَلَائِكَةُ»
