Jāmiʿ at-Tirmidhī 2458

لَيْسَ ذَاكَ وَلَكِنَّ الاِسْتِحْيَاءَ مِنَ اللَّهِ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ أَنْ تَحْفَظَ الرَّأْسَ وَمَا وَعَى وَتَحْفَظَ الْبَطْنَ وَمَا حَوَى وَتَتَذَكَّرَ الْمَوْتَ وَالْبِلَى وَمَنْ أَرَادَ الآخِرَةَ تَرَكَ زِينَةَ الدُّنْيَا فَمَنْ فَعَلَ ذَلِكَ فَقَدِ اسْتَحْيَا مِنَ اللَّهِ حَقَّ الْحَيَاءِ

laysa dhāka walakinna al-istiḥyāʾa mina-Llāh ḥaqqa al-ḥayāʾi an taḥfaẓa ar-raʾsa wamā waʿā wataḥfaẓa al-baṭna wamā ḥawā watatadhakkara al-mawta wa-l-bilā waman arāda al-ākhiraha taraka zīnaha ad-dunyā faman faʿala dhalika faqadi āstaḥyā mina-Llāh ḥaqqa al-ḥayāʾi

The full narration

Abdullah bin Mas'ud narrated that the Messenger of Allah (s.a.w) said:" Have Haya' for Allah as is His due." [He said:] We said: "O Prophet of Allah! We have Haya', and all praise is due to Allah." He said: "Not that, but having the Haya' for Allah which He is due is to protect the head and what it contains and to protect the insides and what it includes, and to remember death and the trial, and whoever intends the Hereafter, he leaves the adornments of the world. So whoever does that, then he has indeed fulfilled Haya', meaning the Haya' which Allah is due
