The Story of 3 Men Trapped in a Cave
Abdullah ibn Umar reported: The Messenger of Allah, peace and blessings be upon him, said, “While three men were walking, they were overcome by rain and took refuge in a cave in a mountain. A boulder fell over the mouth of their cave, blocking them inside. One of them said to the others, ‘Look at the good deeds you have done for Allah that you may call upon Allah Almighty by them, for perhaps He will relieve you.’
One of them said, ‘O Allah, I had two old parents with my wife and young child. I tended to a flock and when evening came, I milked them and served my parents first before my child. One day I went in search of fodder and I did not come back until it was evening. I found them both sleeping, so I milked as I had done before. I brought the milk and stood by their heads, for I hated to disrupt their sleep or to serve my child before both of them. My child was crying at my feet, yet I continued standing over them until the approach of dawn. If You know I had done that seeking Your countenance, then relieve us of this distress that we might see the sky!’ Allah shifted the boulder until they could see the sky.
Another man said, ‘O Allah, I had a cousin whom I loved more than any man could love women. I presented myself to her and she refused unless I could give her one hundred coins. I worked hard until I gathered one hundred coins and brought them to her. When I prepared myself between her legs, she said: O servant of Allah, fear Allah and do not break the hymen without right to do so! I stood and left her. If You know I had done that seeking your Face, then relieve us of this distress!’ The boulder was again shifted for them.
The last man said, ‘O Allah, I employed a worker for a portion of rice. When he finished his work, he said: Give me what I deserve! I offered his share to him but he did not accept it. I continued planting his share until I had amassed cows and flocks. Then he came to me and he said: Fear Allah and do not violate my rights! I said: Go to this cow and its flocks and take them. He said: Fear Allah and do not mock me! I said: I do not mock you, take that cow and its flocks. So he took them and he left. If You know I had done that seeking Your face, then relieve us of what remains!’ Then Allah relieved them of what remained.”

A person might give out stacks of money to the poor, but nevertheless he might be too haughty to sit with the poor and eat with them.
Sayyiduna Al-Husayn b. Ali, the grandson of our Prophet ﷺ, passed by a group of poor people eating pieces of bread. He greeted them. They invited him to come dine with them. Al-Husayn dismounted and ate with them, reciting the words of Allah:
إِنَّهُ لَا يُحِبُّ الْمُسْتَكْبِرِينَ
"He (Allah) does not like the haughty"
Then he said to them, just like you invited me and I accepted, now I invite you so accept my invitation. He took them to his house and told his wife to bring out the best of food she had. They dined and left.
[Abu Ubayd Ibn Sallām, Shawāhid al-Quran: 62]
Sometimes you go to the building watchman, or the shop of a menial tradesman (e.g. cobbler), and you find him having his humble meal, and he out of courtesy says, come dine with me. Don't be haughty, don't be repulsed or revulsed by his lowly food; rather sit with him, say Bismillah and take a morsel or two, and then reciprocate him later on.

In the Name of Allaah…
Dr. Muhammad Baazmool (may Allaah preserve him) mentioned that there is no specified answer from the Sunnah to Jazaak Allaahu Khayran, read here.
To add something to that: The phrase “Jazaak Allaahu Khayran“ (may Allaah reward you well) is something that is from the Sunnah to be said to express thanks or praise, due to the hadeeth:
مَنْ صُنِعَ إِلَيْهِ مَعْرُوفٌ فَقَالَ لِفَاعِلِهِ: جَزَاكَ اللَّهُ خَيْرًا. فَقَدْ أَبْلَغَ فِي الثَّنَاء.
On the authority of Usaamah Ibn Zayd, he said that the Messenger of Allaah (sallallaahu ‘alayhe wa sallam) said: “Whoever has had something nice done for him and then says to his companion, ‘Jazaak Allaahu Khayran,’ then he has surely excelled in praising (him).”
Al-Albaanee authenticated it in Saheeh Sunan At-Tirmithee #2035 (2/392).
So then it is not like other phrases found in the Sunnah that have specified answers, like:
1) Al-Hamdulillaah — Yarhamukallaah — Yahdeekumullaahu wa Yuslihu Baalakum
2) As-Salaamu ‘alaykum — wa ‘Alaykumus-Salaam
3) Uhibbuka fillaah — Ahabbak Allaahul-lathee Ahbabtanee feeh, etc
These are all supported by evidences. We may not say that the response to a certain phrase must be such-and-such except with evidence.
So then a person may respond to “Jazaak Allaahu Khayran” with any number of Arabic phrases that make sense, like:
Aameen wa iyyaak
Wa jazaak
Aameen wa jazaak
Wa iyyaak kathaalik
Wa iyyaanaa ajma’een
Wa iyyaak bi’ashri amthaalihaa, etc.
Or other phrases in English:
Aameen, and to you brother
Aameen, to you likewise
And may He reward you too
And to you
To you the same, etc.
And this is done without clinging to any one phrase. So actually “Aameen Wa Iyyaak“ is a very sensible reply in Arabic. The shaykh only made a difference between saying it sometimes and saying it as if it is legislated in the Deen.
So we have to make a note here since many of us fall into this when we are learning Arabic. The phrase “Kayfa Haaluk“ does not have a legislated answer. It is not a must to reply, “Tayyib wal-Hamdulillaah.” This is simply something taught since it is a common conversation, like “How are you?” and “I’m fine.” It should not be taken as legislation, meaning that when you hear someone say, “Jayyid walillaahil-Hamd“ you correct him. Rather many of us stick to “Tayyib wal-Hamdulillaah“ since it is the only phrase we know in Arabic. We do not intend to make it deen, but it is unfortunately our constant, unchanging answer to “Kayfa Haaluk“.
Likewise, “Aameen Wa Iyyaak.” It is just something we were taught as a conversation. “Jazaak Allaahu Khayran, Aameen Wa Iyyaak“ its fine like that, it makes sense. But we have to realize it is not Deen. The specific phrase of “Jazaak Allaahu Khayran“ is Deen, but the reply is left up to how ever you want to answer. I am not suggesting that you must learn all those phrases I mentioned above and meanwhile you have a lot of legislated supplications to still learn, but you could simply not reply sometimes when someone says “Jazaak Allaahu Khayran“ as there is no obligatory or recommended reply needed. You could also mix up “Aameen, Wa Iyyaak“ with a simple “Aameen” or simply “Wa Iyyaak“, and sometimes no reply. Here you have four different answers.

We say to a person: Rely on yourself when it comes to people. Do not ask them for anything and do not lower yourself in front of them. And make sure you are not in need of them as much as you are able to. But when it comes to Allah, do not be self-sufficient! But always keep (asking Him and) depending on Him until things become easier for you.

The Prophet (may Allaah raise his rank and grant him peace) said:
لا تحقرن من المعروف شيئا، ولو أن تلقى أخاك بوجه طلق.
“Do not look down on any act of kindness, even if it is just meeting your brother with a pleasant smile on your face.”
A pleasant smile causes people to become happy, wins over their love and affection, and leads to both parties having good thoughts of each other. Just try it and you will see!
Saheeh Muslim (2626); on the authority of Aboo Tharr (may Allaah be pleased with him).

Al-‘Allamah Ibn Baz (may Allah have mercy on him) said:
"What is legislated for the believer is to respect his brother if he offers an excuse to him, to accept his apology if possible, and to think positively of him as much as possible, striving to keep hearts free of resentment and aiming to bring about unity and co-operation in doing good.

Muhammad ibn Abdul wahhab was from the Banu Tameem tribe.
Whilst the Sufis & Shias dance with the Dajjal, the tribe of Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhaabs will be fighting against it.
good qualities of the people of najd (banu tamim) from sahih hadith
Narrated Abu Huraira:
I have loved the people of the tribe of Bani tamim ever since I heard, three things, Allah's Apostle said about them. I heard him saying,
These people (of the tribe of Bani tamim) would stand firm against Ad-dajjal."
When the Sadaqat (gifts of charity) from that tribe came, Allah's Apostle said,
"These are the Sadaqat (i.e. charitable gifts) of our folk."
'Aisha had a slave-girl from that tribe, and the Prophet said to 'Aisha, "Manumit her as she is a descendant of Ishmael (the Prophet)."
(Sahih Al Bukhari. Book #46, Hadith #719) (Bukhari Book #59, Hadith #652)(Sahih Al-Muslim. Book #031, Hadith #6133,6134)
Narrated Abu Huraira: I have not ceased to like Banu tamim ever since I heard of three qualities attributed to them by Allah's Apostle (He said): They, out of all my followers, will be the strongest opponent of Ad-dajjal; 'Aisha had a slave-girl from them, and the Prophet told her to manumit her as she was from the descendants of (the Prophet) Ishmael; and, when their Zakat was brought, the Prophet said, "This is the Zakat of my people."
(Book #59, Hadith #652)
Abu Huraira reported: Since I heard three things from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) my love for Banu tamim is never on the decline (and these things are): I heard Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying about them that they would put up stout resistance against Dajjal amongst my Umma. And he (the narrator) said: (When) the consignment of Zakat was brought to him, Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: This is the charity of our people, and there was one slave-girl in the house of 'A'isha and she was from the tribe of Banu tamim; thereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Set her free, for she is from the offspring of Isma'il. The other hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Abu Huraira with a slight variation of wording.
(Sahih Al-Muslim. Book #031, Hadith #6133)
Abu Huraira reported: There are some distinguishing features of Banu tamim which I heard from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) and my love for them is never on the decline after that and the words are: They are the bravest amongst people in the battlefield and there is no mention of (the word)" Dajjal".
(Sahih Al-Muslim. Book #031, Hadith #6134)
Ibn Hajr al-Asqalaanee said, "this hadeeth also contains a clear mention of the excellence and superiority of Bani Tameem." [Fath 5/217]
Banu Tamim are the majority of people of the so-called Najd (Saudi Arabia). To label Najd as that area of Saudi Arabia would be in contradiction of the many hadeeth relating to Bani Tameem especially those in which they fight the Dajjal, who comes from the Najd that is to the East.
Whilst the Sufis & Shias dance with the Dajjal, the tribe of Muhammad ibn Abdul-Wahhaabs will be fighting against it.

Narrated Abu Huraira: I have not ceased to like Banu tamim ever since I heard of three qualities attributed to them by Allah's Apostle (He said): They, out of all my followers, will be the strongest opponent of Ad-dajjal; 'Aisha had a slave-girl from them, and the Prophet told her to manumit her as she was from the descendants of (the Prophet) Ishmael; and, when their Zakat was brought, the Prophet said, "This is the Zakat of my people."
(Book #59, Hadith #652)
Abu Huraira reported: Since I heard three things from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) my love for Banu tamim is never on the decline (and these things are): I heard Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) as saying about them that they would put up stout resistance against Dajjal amongst my Umma. And he (the narrator) said: (When) the consignment of Zakat was brought to him, Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: This is the charity of our people, and there was one slave-girl in the house of 'A'isha and she was from the tribe of Banu tamim; thereupon Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Set her free, for she is from the offspring of Isma'il. The other hadith has been transmitted on the authority of Abu Huraira with a slight variation of wording.
(Sahih Al-Muslim. Book #031, Hadith #6133)
Abu Huraira reported: There are some distinguishing features of Banu tamim which I heard from Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) and my love for them is never on the decline after that and the words are: They are the bravest amongst people in the battlefield and there is no mention of (the word)" Dajjal".
(Sahih Al-Muslim. Book #031, Hadith #6134)
Ibn Hajr al-Asqalaanee said, "this hadeeth also contains a clear mention of the excellence and superiority of Bani Tameem." [Fath 5/217]
Banu Tamim are the majority of people of the so-called Najd (Saudi Arabia). To label Najd as that area of Saudi Arabia would be in contradiction of the many hadeeth relating to Bani Tameem especially those in which they fight the Dajjal, who comes from the Najd that is to the East.

The Prophet ﷺ said:“The people who face the most difficult tests are the prophets, then the righteous, then those following them in degree. A person is tried according to his religion. So if there is firmness in his religion, then the trial is increased, and if there is a weakness, then it is lightened. Verily a trial remains with a servant until he walks the earth having no sin left upon him.” [Bukhari].
