ALLAH RESPONDS TO YOU
1481
“When the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, was seated in the Mosque surrounded by people, three men came in. Two of them approached him and the third turned away. Of the two, one noticed a gap between those who were seated and seated himself there and the other sat down behind those who were seated.
When the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, finished his talk, he said, ‘I shall tell you about these three. One of them sought refuge with Allah and Allah gave him shelter. The second felt shy and Allah treated him in the same manner. The third turned away and Allah turned away from him.’"
Bukhari and Muslim with a chain up to Harith the son of Auf who related that the Messenger of Allah, praise and peace be upon him, said this.
