Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 38452 — Reports on weeping out of fear

Habib bin Abi Thabit (may Allah have mercy on him) said: The Companions of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) asked: "O Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), we do some deeds in secret, then we hear people talking about them, and we like being mentioned favorably?" He (peace and blessings be upon him) answered: "You have two rewards: the reward of secrecy and the reward of openness."
