The
prophet (P.B.U.H.) said :
"
A good companion may be likened to a
perfumer. If he may not benefit you: may fill you with his fragrant smell. And
a bad companion is likened to an iron-smith. If he may not burn you, may fill
you with his smoky smell".
While
choosing friends, please keep in your mind the view-points of the person to
whom you are going to extend your hands for friendship, and whether his
ideology is healthy and Constructive or otherwise, and what he has so far
preferred to Allah and His Prophet? The Prophet (P.B.U.H.) said:
"The man follows the pattern of his friend so
you should be very particular about whom you befriend."
Your
rapport and co-operation with friends in particular, and your love of others in
general, should be based upon the pleasure of Allah with no string to benefit
or interest. The Prophet (P.B.U.H.) said:
"Those who love each other for my sake, I
shall keep them under my shadow the day when there will be no shadow save my
shadow."
Give
a prime importance to the affairs of Allah and His Prophet in the avocations of
you and your friends. Our Prophet (P.B.U.H.) told:
" Allah said: my love shall come true for
those who love each other for my sake, and my love shall come true for those
who visit each other for my sake, and my love shall come true for those who
abhor each other for my sake, and my love shall come true for those who show a
good behaviour to each other for my sake. "
