Madani Pearls regarding Good Company

Dear Islamic brothers! Before listening to some Madani pearls about good company, here are some blessed Ahadith of the final Prophet صَلَّى الـلّٰـهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم:

1.    اَلْمَرْءُ مَعَ مَنْ اَحَبَّ - “A person will be with whom he loves.”^[1]

2.    اَلْمَرْءُ عَلیٰ دِیْنِ خَلِیْلِہِ فَلْیَنْظُرْ اَحَدُ کُمْ مَنْ یُّخَالِلُ - “A person is upon the faith and ways of his friend. Hence, he should look carefully as to who he befriends.”^[2]

*    “Verily, the example of a good companion and a bad companion is like a seller of musk and a blacksmith. The seller of musk will either give you some perfume, you will buy some, or you will find good fragrance coming from him. As for the blacksmith, he will burn your clothes, or you will notice a bad smell.”^[3]

*   It is mentioned in another Hadith, “Sit in the company of elders, inquire about matters from scholars and stay in contact with the wise.”^[4]
