Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha that Anas ibn Malik heard Umar ibn al-Khattab return the
greeting of a man who greeted him. Then Umar asked the man, "How are
you?" He said, "I praise Allah to you." (Ahmadu ilayka Allah) Umar
said, "That is what I wanted from you."

Yahya related to me from Malik from Ishaq ibn Abdullah ibn Abi
Talha from Abu Murra, the mawla of Aqil ibn Abi Talib from Abu Waqid
al-Laythi that the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and grant
him peace, was sitting in the mosque with some people when three
people came in. Two came toward the Messenger of Allah, may Allah
bless him and grant him peace, and one went away. When the two stopped
at the assembly of the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him and
grant him peace, they gave the greeting. One of them saw a gap in the
circle and sat in it. The other sat down behind the circle. The third
turned away and left. When the Messenger of Allah, may Allah bless him
and grant him peace, finished, he said, "Shall I tell you about three
people? One of them sought shelter with Allah, so Allah gave him
shelter. The other was shy, so Allah was shy to him. The other turned
away, so Allah turned away from him."
