Four people I could not repay back:

1. A man that greeted me first with Salam;

2. A man who made space for me in the Majlis [to sit];

3. A man whose foot walked with me to fulfill a need I have;

As for the fourth, no one can repay him back except Allah, Exalted and Glorified is He.

4. A man, who some trouble afflicted him, so he spent the night thinking of who he can ask for assistance, then he found me worth of that honour, so he asked me for assistance in it.

'No, it is the fact that this world is close, and they can see it, while the hereafter is hidden from them. By Allah, if they could see it with their own eyes, they would not drift or turn away from it."'
