I wanted to share some information on this topic in this forum.
Imran bin Hussain narrated that prophet Muhammad (pbuh) as saying, “*Modesty brings nothing but qood. *
*Modesty is part of Faith and Faith is in Paradise. But obscenity is part of hardness of the heart and hardness of the heart is in hell.” *
Zaid bin Talha narrated that prophet Muhammad as saying: " *Modesty and Faith are companions; when one of them goes out, the other follows it. *He also reported, God’s Messenger said, Every religion has a character and the character of Islam is Modesty"
Modesty prevents human beings from indulging into indecency and obscenity.
If they commit sin under pressure of animal nature, it is modesty which makes them feel the pangs of conscience.
If we lack modesty, desires will lay complete hold of us and we will not hesitate to indulge into any sin.
Modesty is a strong moral deterrent against all evil inclinations.
It is a pity that in the current, so called “free” society, Islamic standards of purity and modesty face continual threat and criticism.
Modesty is the most important part of Islamic morals and characteristics.
