Hadith 65. Mr Abu Huroiroh narrating the Messenger of Allah – Sollollohu ‘alaihi wasallam – saying:
Faith has seventy-something-or sixty-few-branches, the best of which is to say that there is no god but God, and the closest to get something harmful out of the way, and modesty is a branch of faith.
{The faith consists of seventy-two parts or sixty-two parts: accordingly, the most valuable part is the phrase “La i la ha il lol loh” and the lowest part is picking up thorns and throwing them out of the way; and shyness is part of faith.} (Al-Bukhari and Muslim).
Analysis of the hadith:
Faith is not inherently a unit or a single part, but consists of many parts, up to seventy or sixty parts. Consequently, the highest and most valuable part is the oath: {Benefit ha il lol loh} and the lowest part is the act of eliminating harmful things found on the road such as stones, thorns, etc.; and shyness is part of faith.
