Madani pearls about good company

٭  A good companion is the one whose sight reminds you of Allah عَزَّوَجَلَّ, whose speech increases your (good) deed and whose deed reminds you of the Hereafter.’ (Al-Jami’-us-Sagheer, vol. 2, pp. 247, Hadees 4063)

٭  Remember! We should only have good company and keep ourselves away from bad people. The Beloved Rasool صَلَّى اللهُ تَعَالٰى عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم has stated: The example of a good and bad companion is like the one who carries Musk (i.e. Kastoori) and the one who blows the bellows into furnace. The one who carries musk will either gift you or you will buy from him or you will have pleasant fragrance from him, whereas the one who blows the bellows into furnace either will burn your clothes or you will have unpleasant smell from him. (Sahih Muslim, pp. 1414, Hadees 2628)

٭  Every company surely has its influence. For example if you meet an Islamic brother whose eyes are filled with tears and signs of sorrow are evident on his face due to the death of his dear one, so by seeing him in this state you may also feel sad for a while. Moreover, if you sit with any such Islamic brother whose face is lighting up with pleasure due to a success, who is smiling and his blissful talk is showing gladness then you will also become happy for some time inadvertently.
