Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الصَّمَدِ حَدَّثَنَا حَرْبٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ شَدَّادٍ حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى يَعْنِي ابْنَ أَبِي كَثِيرٍ حَدَّثَنِي إِسْحَاقُ بْنُ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ أَبِي طَلْحَةَ عَنْ حَدِيثِ أَبِي مُرَّةَ أَنَّ أَبَا وَاقِدٍ اللَّيْثِيَّ حَدَّثَهُ قَالَ بَيْنَمَا نَحْنُ مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِذْ مَرَّ ثَلَاثَةُ نَفَرٍ فَجَاءَ أَحَدُهُمْ فَوَجَدَ فُرْجَةً فِي الْحَلْقَةِ فَجَلَسَ وَجَلَسَ الْآخَرُ مِنْ وَرَائِهِمْ وَانْطَلَقَ الثَّالِثُ فَقَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ أَلَا أُخْبِرُكُمْ بِخَبَرِ هَؤُلَاءِ النَّفَرِ قَالُوا بَلَى يَا رَسُولَ اللَّهِ قَالَ أَمَّا الَّذِي جَاءَ فَجَلَسَ فَأَوَى فَآوَاهُ اللَّهُ وَالَّذِي جَلَسَ مِنْ وَرَائِكُمْ فَاسْتَحَى فَاسْتَحَى اللَّهُ مِنْهُ وَأَمَّا الَّذِي انْطَلَقَ رَجُلٌ أَعْرَضَ فَأَعْرَضَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُ.
English Translation
'Abd al-Samad told us, Harb — that is, Ibn Shaddad — told us, Yahya — that is, Ibn Abi Kathir — told us: Ishaq b. 'Abdullah b. Abi Talhah told me, from the hadith of Abu Murrah, that Abu Waqid al-Laythi told him, who said: While we were with the Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, three men passed by. One of them came and found a gap in the circle, so he sat in it; the second sat behind them; and the third turned away and left. The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "Shall I not tell you about these three men? As for the one who came and sat, he sought shelter, so Allah sheltered him. As for the one who sat behind you, he felt shy, so Allah showed him mercy out of shyness. And as for the one who turned away, he turned away, so Allah turned away from him."
