حَدَّثَنَا عَفَّانُ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْوَاحِدِ بْنُ زِيَادٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَاصِمٌ الْأَحْوَلُ، عَنْ أَبِي كَبْشَةَ قَالَ: سَمِعْتُ أَبَا مُوسَى يَقُولُ عَلَى الْمِنْبَرِ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ: " مَثَلُ الْجَلِيسِ الصَّالِحِ كَمَثَلِ الْعَطَّارِ، إِنْ لَا يُحْذِكَ يَعْبَقْ بِكَ مِنْ رِيحِهِ، وَمَثَلُ الْجَلِيسِ السَّوْءِ كَمَثَلِ صَاحِبِ الْكِيرِ " (١)، ،

English translation
It is narrated from Abu Musa (may Allah be pleased with him) that the Noble Prophet (ﷺ) said: The example of a good companion is like that of a perfume seller; even if he does not bring his bottle of perfume near you, its fragrance will still reach you. And the example of a bad companion is like that of a blacksmith's furnace; even if it does not burn you, its heat and flames will still reach you.
