Sahih al-Bukhari 66 (Book 3, Hadith 8)
came in front of Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) and the third one went away. The two persons kept on standing
before Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) for a while and then one of them found a place in the circle and sat there while
the other sat behind the gathering, and the third one went away. When Allah’s Messenger (ﷺ) finished his
preaching, he said, “Shall I tell you about these three persons? One of them betook himself to Allah,
so Allah took him into His grace and mercy and accommodated him, the second felt shy from Allah,
so Allah sheltered Him in His mercy (and did not punish him), while the third turned his face from
Allah and went away, so Allah turned His face from him likewise. “
“ أَلاَ أُخْبِرُكُمْ عَنِ النَّفَرِ الثَّلاَثَةِ أَمَّا أَحَدُهُمْ فَأَوَى إِلَى اللَّهِ، فَآوَاهُ اللَّهُ، وَأَمَّا الآخَرُ فَاسْتَحْيَا، فَاسْتَحْيَا اللَّهُ مِنْهُ، وَأَمَّا الآخَرُ فَأَعْرَضَ، فَأَعْرَضَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ ”.
