Narrated Abu Huraira:The Prophet (s.a.w)said, “Allah will give shade, to seven, on the Day when there will be no shade but His: (They will be ) a just ruler; a youth who has been brought up in the worship of Allah; a man whose heart is attached to the mosques, two persons who love each other only for Allah’s sake and they meet and part in Allah’s cause only; a man who refuses the call of a charming woman of noble birth for illicit intercourse with her and says: “I am afraid of Allah”; a man who gives charitable gifts so secretly that his left hand does not know what his right hand has given; and a person who remembers Allah in seclusion and his eyes are then flooded with tears.” – Al-Bukhari
