حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ، حَدَّثَنَا سَالِمٌ أَبُو جُمَيْعٍ، حَدَّثَنَا الْحَسَنُ، وَذَكَرَ، عُثْمَانَ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ وَشِدَّةَ حَيَائِهِ فَقَالَ إِنْ كَانَ لَيَكُونُ فِي الْبَيْتِ وَالْبَابُ عَلَيْهِ مُغْلَقٌ فَمَا يَضَعُ عَنْهُ الثَّوْبَ لِيُفِيضَ عَلَيْهِ الْمَاءَ يَمْنَعُهُ الْحَيَاءُ أَنْ يُقِيمَ صُلْبَهُ.
