Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
He says: Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. He says: When 'Uthman (may Allah be pleased with him) entered upon the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him), Abu Bakr and 'Umar (may Allah be pleased with them) were present. It is reported that a part of the Prophet's (peace and blessings be upon him) body was exposed, so he covered it. What was it? And is it evidence that what was covered is not an 'awrah (part of the body that must be covered)?
Answer:
It was not specified to us what was exposed of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him). He covered the exposed part and said, "Do not the angels feel shy of 'Uthman? Should I not feel shy of a man from whom the angels feel shy?" Yes.
