It is narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Waqid al-Laythi (may Allah be pleased with him) that once the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) was sitting in the mosque with the people around him (peace and blessings be upon him), when three men came. Two of them came towards the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) and one went away. The two stopped near the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him); one of them saw an empty space in the gathering and sat in it, the other sat behind the people, and the third turned his back and went away. When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) had finished, he said: "Shall I not tell you about these three men? One of them sought refuge with Allah, the Mighty and Majestic, so Allah gave him refuge. The second felt shy, so Allah was also shy of him. And the third turned away, so Allah also turned away from him."
