Question:
He says: In a hadith, in the sense of the hadith of the three men, which includes the phrase "whoever is ashamed, Allah is ashamed of him," what is its meaning? And was a reward recorded for him, or was it not recorded?
Answer:
Yes, three men entered while the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting and talking to his Companions. One left, one sat in the circle, and the third was ashamed and sat in the circle out of shyness; Allah was ashamed of him. This contains a description of Allah (Mighty and Majestic), because He is ashamed, as He (Mighty and Majestic) said:[Al-Baqarah 2:26] [Al-Baqarah 2:26]. Whoever is ashamed, Allah is ashamed of him. It is one of the attributes of Allah, but it is not fitting for Allah in the way it is for created beings; it is not like the shyness of the created. Yes, the reward was recorded for the one who sat out of desire, and it was also recorded for the one who sat out of shyness of Allah (Mighty and Majestic); the reward was recorded for him. Yes.

Indeed, Allah is not timid
إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا يَسْتَحْيِيto present an example - that of a mosquito or what is smaller than it
أَن يَضْرِبَ مَثَلًا مَّا بَعُوضَةً فَمَا فَوْقَهَا
