قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ص الْحَيَاءُ حَيَاءَانِ حَيَاءُ عَقْلٍ وَ حَيَاءُ حُمْقٍ فَحَيَاءُ الْعَقْلِ هُوَ الْعِلْمُ وَ حَيَاءُ الْحُمْقِ هُوَ الْجَهْلُ.

6. A number of our people have narrated from Ahmad ibn abu ‘Abd Allah from certain individuals of our people in a marfu’ manner from the Messenger of Allah who has said the following: “There are two kinds of bashfulness: A bashfulness that comes from one’s reason and the bashfulness that comes from one’s foolishness. The bashfulness that comes from one’s reason is knowledge and the bashfulness that comes from one’s foolishness is ignorance.”
Translation: Muhammad Sarwar — attributed by Thaqalayn·The Arabic above is the original.
