Narrated from Sayyiduna Abu Waqid Al-Laithi (may Allah be pleased with him) that (one day) while the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) was sitting in the mosque and people were sitting with him (to benefit from him), three persons came. Two of them came to the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) and one went away. (Abu Waqid, may Allah be pleased with him, says) that both of them stood for a while near the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him), then one of them saw a space in the circle and sat there, and the other sat at the back (where the gathering ended), and the third went away. When the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings of Allah be upon him) finished (his sermon), he addressed the companions (may Allah be pleased with them) and said: Shall I not tell you about the condition of these three men? One of them turned to Allah, so Allah gave him a place, the second felt shy, so Allah (also) was shy with him, and the third turned away, so Allah (also) turned away from him.
