Hadith 20:

On the authority of Abu Masood Uqbah bin ’Amr al-Ansaree al-Badree (may Allah be pleased with him) who said:

The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) said, “Verily, from what was learnt by the people from the speech of the earliest prophecy is: If you feel no shame, then do as you wish.” [Al-Bukhari]

عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْأَنْصَارِيِّ الْبَدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه و سلم “إنَّ مِمَّا أَدْرَكَ النَّاسُ مِنْ كَلَامِ النُّبُوَّةِ الْأُولَى: إذَا لَمْ تَسْتَحِ فَاصْنَعْ مَا شِئْت” . 

[رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ].

Part 1: ‘If you feel no shame, do as you wish.’

  • This statement was spoken by previous prophets too
  • 2 opinions from the scholars about this statement:

First opinion: Dispraise and prohibition of a lack of shame

2 ways to explain this: 

  • firstly the Prophet made threat against having a lack of shame
  • secondly khabar (information)

Second opinion: The Prophet actually commanding us to do as you wish – if you don’t feel shy doing things then do it such as salah
