modesty in islam

 

'Hayaa’ is a word which describes both shyness and a deeper modesty that is based on ‘iimaan (faith). Hayaa’ therefore influences a Muslim’s conduct before Allaah, before others and even when one is alone. Hayaa’ makes a person more careful, self-aware, and self-controlled and ultimately results in paying Allaah & His creation the respect that is their due. It is no coincidence that the words ‘Hayaa’ (modesty) and ‘hayaat’ (life) come from the same Arabic root. This signifies that modesty is a sign of a truly ‘living’ heart, and that a heart's vibrancy depends on its owner's belief & knowledge of Allaah.
