Sayyiduna Abu Waqid al-Laythi (may Allah be pleased with him) said: We were sitting with the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) in a circle when three men came. One man found an empty space in the circle and sat in it, the second sat behind the circle, and the third went away. The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: "Shall I not tell you about these three? The one who sat in the circle is a man who sought refuge, so Allah gave him refuge. The one who sat behind the circle is a man who felt shy, so Allah was also shy of him. And the one who turned away, Allah turned away from him."
