Explanation of the hadith of the young man who said, "I fear Allah"

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Finally, Shaykh, of the seven whom Allah will shade in His shade, there is the young man who said, "I fear Allah." Is there a word with which we can conclude this lesson?

Answer:
Yes. Of the seven whom Allah will shade in His shade on the Day when there is no shade except His, there is a man to whom a woman of high status and beauty called him to herself, calling him to commit zina (unlawful sexual intercourse) with her, and may Allah protect us from that. She was of high status and of beauty, which are temptations toward zina. And yet he said, "I fear Allah," and left her. So he placed the fear of Allah above what his soul loves and desires. Thus, he attained being in the shade of Allah on the Day of Resurrection. Yes.
