say good scent I am not talking about Hugo Boss and all those smells No, we are talking about the spiritual flavor to the life of an individual They are truthful they are honest, they are free from drugs free from alcohol Inshallah you will find yourself naturally you will find yourself very uncomfortable even when you want to light a cigarette because none of them smoke that is the power of company subhanallah so every one of us needs to know that those who have the biggest role in your life and in mind are those whom you choose to be your friends be careful whom you allow to be your friend فلیانظر احدو کم منی خالیل فلیانظر احدو کم منی خالیل a person is known by the friends he or she keeps so every one of you must be careful whom you be friend let me tell you why subhanallah when marriage bells are ringing and people are looking for a spouse how you would know them completely you might have a slight picture of it but you will never be 100% sure unless and until you look at their friends if you look at the friends of a person subhanallah automatically you already know that person the hadith tells you or at least it is the saying of the Sahaba رضی اللہ عن ہم a person is known by the company they keep so if you want to know someone you want to deal with them with the business look at the type of business people they associate with it will tell you in a nutshell how their thinking is let me explain to you why we say this when we see the ocean and Mashallah here in Cape Town we have the ocean right next to us when we see fish if you find a certain type of fish do you not find all of the same type swimming together moving together you would never find one whale and then a dolphin next to it and a small fish next to that one and another king clip and a hake and this and that I am using names from ocean basket subhanallah but the reality is we see that all the fish that have something in common move together which means when you see an individual moving with another group of people you should know that they have something in common that makes them go together if a person has nothing in common with you they will come with you once, twice, three times then they will get fed up and after that they will leave you or they will take a step backwards and people will know something went wrong here why they tried but they were different people subhanallah now let me explain to you when you have company you are making yourself or destroying yourself so when you are seen with all drug addicts for example and then you claim that you are not on drugs there are two scenarios you are either telling the truth but you will have the effect of it very soon or you are lying people are watching you they know this man can turn green in the face to explain to us that he is not on drugs but all his friends are on drugs and it's impossible for us to buy his story may Allah protect us so you are affecting yourself negatively because if you are truthful people won't believe you and this is why we say when a person wants to give up his bad habits the first thing he needs to do sacrifice your friends change them completely Allahu Akbar even if it's very hard and very difficult you will have to do that in order to become a better person when you have people whom you deal with they have shady deals if you would like to start dealing straight you need to sacrifice them either in a good way or you need to just say goodbye and carry on may Allah سبحانہ و تعالیٰ grand as the power to do that so let's never fool ourselves I want to give you another example who is a Sahabi a Sahabi may Allah be pleased upon all of them is one who has met the prophetﷺ in his lifetime and died as a Muslim do you know what they are called do you ever find any hadith or any Quranic verse that just says no Abu Bakr and Umar and Uthman and Ali رضی اللہ عن ہم and the others they are just friends of the prophetﷺ there is nothing that says that what it says it uses the term Sahabi Sahabi meaning a companion there is a very big difference a companion it shows that the company is what is of vital importance the company by being in the company of a solid spiritual mentor automatically they were known as the best people خیر ناس خرنی ثم اللذینا لونہم the best of people my generation and then the next and then the next it is reported that any individual who saw the prophetﷺ got guidance immediately without exception besides those who looked at him with the wrong eyes anyone who looked at the prophetﷺ just to look at him they got guidance from Allah on condition that they were in search of guidance that's the condition and they were sincere and genuine because Abu Lahab and Abu Jahal also looked at the prophetﷺ but they hated him why they were jealous of him they wanted the power they wanted the glory they wanted the clout they wanted the wealth they wanted the women so they accused him of wanting the same yet he did not want no power no money no women no nothing no clout no word of Allah he wanted to spread the word of Allah and that is the truth those who knew the prophetﷺ looked at him with genuine eyes immediately they accepted Islam or within some time they accepted Islam they were known as Sahaba that's why as Sahaba تکلوہم عدول اہل السنط والجماع we believe that all the Sahaba are sitting on a high pedestal we will never speak ڈل and bad even about one of them no matter what might have happened between them sometimes and the stories come to us we are nobodies to even comment about them because both parties were far better than us مے اللہ سبحانہ وطعالہ protect our tongues those are the Sahaba رضی اللہ عنهم اللہ سبحانہ وطعالہ chose them now if we take a look at عبد اللہ ابن سلام رضی اللہ عنهم he was a jewish priest a jewish rabai when he saw the prophet ڈل ڈل do you know what he said he says later on he says when the prophet ڈل came to ڈل and everyone was trying to look at him and watch him and see him and so on and I happened to look at his face I had a glance at his face from the crowd as soon as I saw him I knew this is not the face of a liar سبحانہ و اللہ why because he looked at him with the right intention with the correct intention when ever an ڈالیم or a scholar of deen is standing in front of you you need to have the right intention the ڈل are not prophets they will have their own weaknesses they will have their different quirks sometimes more sometimes less but the message they are delivering to you is an ڈالیم you've got to look at the message is it a solid message is it correct if it is correct no matter who is telling it to you you need to take heed even if a non muslim is telling you that brother don't lie you don't look at the fact that he's a non muslim and say this is a non muslim telling me something so you know throw him aside he's telling you don't lie so he is telling you something that you need which is valid which is correct which does not negate anything that is in the Quran and Sunnah in fact it promotes what is in the Quran and hadith you will take it even when a child comes to those who are elderly and tells them you know what all my father you are wrong you need to take heed ابراہیم ڈالیم ڈالیم went to his father and says فَا اتبِرْنِ اَهْدِكَ صِرَاتٌ سَوِیَا او my father knowledge has come to me that did not come to you so follow me and I will show you what the right path is imagine a child is telling the father some of us have the same within our own homes our daughters our sons might come to us and say dad mom you know what what you're doing is wrong don't do this take it as a blessing consider yourself in a similar position like the father of ابراہیم ڈالیم he reacted in the wrong way do you want to choose that reaction or do you want to react properly may Allah ڈالیم ڈالیم so getting back to the issue of companionship the prophet ڈالیم ڈالیم not only expressed the fact that there is virtue for anyone who was in his company but he says even anyone who was in their company is now known as a ڈابیعی سبحان اللہ may Allah ڈالیم ڈالیم ڈالیم ڈابیعی meaning someone who met anyone of the ڈابیعیم ڈالیم ڈالیم in their lives and they died as Muslims they are known as ڈابیعیم it's amazing اللہ ڈالیم ڈالیم ڈالیم and here we are we are sitting in our societies in our environments you do not necessarily have to befriend your neighbor to the degree that you allow them to have an impact on you if every day you hear loud music from your neighbors you don't need to start playing loud music as well you need to know where it is and you need to know the level of it and you need to know where to draw the line they are your neighbors you will fulfill their rights as neighbors if they are Muslims they have a double right if they are relatives they have a triple right and at the same time if they are non Muslims the bare minimum is they have the right of the fact that they are your neighbors but we need to realize when you don't know where to draw the line you will drop with them the same applies to all your friends may Allah protect me before everybody else and then all of us inshallah so if anyone thinks that no my friends don't really play a big role the prophet ڈالیم ڈالیم ڈالیم ڈالیم ڈالیم says if you want to know a man just look at his friends don't look at him ڈالیم ڈالیم ڈالیم ڈالیم because nothing will bring you close to someone else unless you've got things in common find out what is in common is it knowledge is it feminizing is it the night cloud is it homosexuality may Allah protect all our children and us as well what is it that brings them together a hidden factor may Allah ڈالیم ڈالیم ڈالیم and yourselves as well so today's topic, as you know in Islam we are not encouraged to give very very long talks why because in Islam we believe خیر عو دلنا وَدَلَّا مَا قَلَّا وَقَفَا خَيْرٌ مِمْ مَا قَثُرَ وَأَلْحَا بیست of speech is that which is short and to the point that which is short and concise and points directly is better than that which is long and it just takes you round in circles so the Jumu'a the idea of this Friday is to go back with a solid message to look at it to think about it throughout the week to effect it in your life and today's message is regarding friendship I need to look into who my friends are and every single one of us no matter how old you are or how young you are ask yourself who are my friends why are they my friends what habits have I got from them did I start swearing did I start shouting and screaming sometimes a person is a very nice person after they get into the companionship of someone else they become loud mouth they start swearing and shouting sometimes that person whom they are in the company of is imposed on them because it's a parent or a spouse or a child and sometimes it is a friend so at least where you have the say you need to realize that don't allow friendship to overtake your good habits and make them bad never and now after many years you might feel it very difficult to change your friends so what you need to do is stand up and correct them in a nice way a true friend is the one who corrects you do you know when you have a business problem what difficulty we are facing on the globe today is that when you call in a third party to try and resolve your matter mostly that third party might be inclined to one of the two already so if he's more friendly to you for example he will take you aside so we'll actually tell them look I've got a problem with this brother please come and let's sort it out so you go in sorting it out for him not for justice that's not a friend Rasulullahﷺ and his companions whenever there was a problem even if they were non-muslims on the other side if they were right they were right so whether it is your brother or your father or whoever it is on one side if they are wrong they are wrong no matter how close they are to you and how much wealth they have يا ایوہ اللذین آمنو کونو قوامین بالقصط شہداء للاہ ولو علاء انفسیکم او الوالدین والأقربین اویوہ who believe stand firm for justice even if it is against your own self or your parents or your relatives and the firm for justice that is what makes a good friend so a friend is not a person who tells you what you want to hear not always a friend is one who supports you comforts you and corrects you where you are going wrong that is a true friend and someone who has given you wrong advice is an enemy of yours even if they are with you 24 hours of the day a person who tells you listen brother stop smoking I am fed up of this not going to sit with you again wallahi that's a good friend keep in that company because at one point insha Allah you will realize that smoking is bad we all know it's bad and everyone is trying to give it up but the bare minimums when people get worse habits than smoking lying, cheating, deceiving may Allah protect us it has become the norm to deceive people in fact a clever businessman now in some circles in a very cunning way that he becomes a better businessman they say this guy is a top businessman in certain circles that would be referring to the biggest thug may Allah protect us I hope it's not the case in our communities but in certain circles I've been coming now I've traveled a few countries and I've seen things that have really taught me a lot may Allah grant us all lesson may he make us the best of people so the reality is I think it's time we took stock of who our friends are and I hope and I pray that this short talk of mine could actually help myself and yourselves consider and could give us points to ponder over to think about and I'd like to end off with one note and that is that you know in the home sometimes with us and our qualities we brush them off or on to our wives and our offspring without even realizing the same applies with the wives and sometimes it even happens with brothers and sisters and so on where you have a person when they got married they were very good, quiet from a good home decent place but they got married and every day they had to hear swear words and shouting and deceiving and so on so now suddenly five years down the line they have been transformed to a worse person and they find themselves swearing and shouting then they sit back and they say but I wasn't like this I don't know how this came he made me like this and you sit back and you say how could I have made you like that don't come and con the world but the reality is the way we live sometimes we force our spouses and our children to develop the same bad habits wallahi let's be careful because we are living with them we need to understand it let's be exemplary Muslims come on we've got such a beautiful deen such an exemplary religion is it because we are the rotten ambassadors of the deen surely we can do something to correct that we don't want the prophet to be embarrassed of us on the day of qiyamah then are these the type of people who actually claimed to follow me may Allah SWT grant us the true love of Rasulullah SWT may Allah SWT bless you
