عَنْ أَبِي مَسْعُودٍ عُقْبَةَ بْنِ عَمْرٍو الْأَنْصَارِيِّ الْبَدْرِيِّ رَضِيَ اللهُ عَنْهُ قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه و سلم إنَّ مِمَّا أَدْرَكَ النَّاسُ مِنْ كَلَامِ النُّبُوَّةِ الْأُولَى إذَا لَمْ تَسْتَحِ فَاصْنَعْ مَا شِئْت رَوَاهُ الْبُخَارِيُّ

Narrated by Abū Masúūd Úqbah ibn Ámr al-Anşārī al-Badrī radiyAllāhu Anhu, who said: RasūlAllāh ﷺ said:

Indeed among the wisdom that people have received from earlier Prophets is: If you have no shame, do whatever you wish.
