Humble and appreciative

Reference: Siyar A’laam an-Nubalaa v7 p432

Ayyoob ibn al-Mutawakkil رحمه الله said:

If Khaleel ibn Ahmad al-Furaahaydee benefited someone with something, [out of humility] he would not let it be known that he benefited him, [however] if he himself benefited from someone in any way, he would [appreciatively] let him know that he benefited from him.
