Look Who's your friend

Of Abu Musa Al-Asy'ariy radi 'anhu said, the Prophet sallallaahu' alaihi wa sallam said:
مثل الجليس الصالح والسوء كحامل المسك ونافخ الكير, فحامل المسك إما أن يحذيك, وإما أن تبتاع منه, وإما أن تجد منه ريحا طيبة, ونافخ الكير إما أن يحرق ثيابك, وإما أن تجد ريحا خبيثة
"Permisalan seatmate who worships and poor is like a perfume seller and a blacksmith artisans. As for the perfume seller, may be he will give perfume, or you will buy it or you will get the scent of it. The artisan blacksmith, he might be making your clothes catch fire, or you will get a bad odor from him. "(Narrated by Bukhari No.. 2101, No. Muslims. 2628)
O sister, so the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam gave us the clue to always choose friends who are righteous and wary of bad friends. Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam gave an example with two permisalan this in order to explain that a friend of the righteous will benefit us in every moment we are with him. As perfume seller that will benefit us, the form of perfume, or at least if we sit down with him, we will smell the fragrance.
Friends with Benefits People Salih
Friends with the righteous, to sit with him, hang out with, have a greater virtue than virtue sitting with perfume seller. Because sitting with the righteous could so he would teach us something useful to religion and our world as well as providing nashihat-nashihat useful for us. Or she will give a warning to us to avoid matters that endanger us.
Righteous friends who always encouraged us to perform obedience to God, filial to parents, to connect silaturrahim rope, and invites us to always noble, good with words, actions, or with his attitude. Surely someone would follow her seat companions or friends, in terms of character and behavior. Both are bound to one another in goodness or otherwise. (Bahjah Quluubil Abrar, 119)
If we do not receive the above benefits, at least there are still benefits that can be obtained when making friends with the righteous, that we will be prevented from bad deeds and immoral. Righteous friends who will always keep the friendship, always invites competing in goodness, trying to eliminate the evil. He also will keep our secrets, either when we are with him or not. He will give us the benefit in the form of love and prayers to us, whether we are alive or after death. (Bahjatu Quluubil Abrar, 119)
O sisters, friends with benefits really are countless good deeds. And that someone, will be assessed according to a close friend who, as the words of the Prophet sallallaahu 'alaihi wa sallam:
المرء على دين خليله فلينظر أحدكم من يخالل
"A person's religion according to his close friend, then let you see who is a close friend." (Narrated by Abu Daud and Tirmidhi, classed as saheeh by Shaykh al-Albani in Ash-Shahihah genealogy, no. 927)
Dangers of Bad Company
If you make friends with someone who worships can provide countless benefits, then make friends with bad friends have the opposite effect. People who are poor can be dangerous for people who are friends with, may bring disrepute to the people who hang out with him. Really how many people are destroyed because of the evils because they are, and how many people follow their companions to destruction, either consciously or unconsciously. (Bahjatu Qulubil Abrar, 120)
Therefore, it is among the greatest favor of Allah to a servant who believe God gave taufiq is a good friend. In contrast, in the test of a servant of God is to test it with a bad friend. (Bahjah Qulubil Abrar, 120)
Befriend the righteous will acquire useful knowledge, the main moral and righteous deeds. As for making friends with people of bad will prevent it all.
Do Until Regrets
Allah Ta'ala says
ويوم يعض الظالم على يديه يقول يا ليتني اتخذت مع الرسول سبيلا () يا ويلتى ليتني لم أتخذ فلانا خليلا () لقد أضلني عن الذكر بعد إذ جاءني وكان الشيطان للإنسان خذولا
"And (remember) the day (when it's) a tyrannical man bite his hands, saying:" Ah would (first) I took a stroll along the Apostle. Woe to me; May I (first) did not make it sifulan best friend (me). Indeed he had misled me from the Quran when the Quran has come to me. And that is what the devil does not want to help people. "(Surat al-Furqan: 27-29).
As already famous among the scholars of the commentators, is a tyrannical person in this verse is' Uqbah bin Abi Mu'ith, while the sender with instructions has been perverted from the Qur'an is the Umayyad or brother Ubay bin Khalaf bin Khalaf. But in general, this paragraph also applies to any person who dzalim who have chosen to follow the companions to return to disbelief after Islam came to her guidance. Until he died in a state of disbelieve as happened in 'Uqbah bin Abi Mu'ith. (Adhwa'ul Bayan, 6/45)
That Allah Ta'ala has explained how the influence of a close friend for someone, until someone can get back to disbelief after he got guidance of Islam due to the influence of bad friends. Therefore it is appropriate that each of us wary of friends who have a bad temper.

O sister, I want to quote a little nashihat that may be useful for me as well as for you. Nashihat is derived from a scholar named Ibn Al Maqdisiy Qudamah:
"Know, It does not deserve someone make everyone as his friend. But he rightly chose people who could serve as a friend, both in terms of character, temperament, or anything that could cause a desire to befriend him. The temperament or nature should be sought in accordance with the benefits of friendship. There are people who are friends because the purpose of the world, such as to take advantage of property, position or just have fun together and chat together, but this is not our purpose. There are also people who are friends for religious purposes, in this case there is also a different purpose.
Among them are those who aim to harness science and charity, those who want to take advantage of his property, with insufficient requirement when in narrowness. In general, the conclusions that can serve as a friend she should have the following five criteria: intelligent (smart), good moral, not fasiq, not greedy experts heresy and not to the world.
Intelligence is the main capital. There is no good friends with people that dumb, because dumb people who want to help but sometimes he just he just hurt you. Good morals, it is also a must. Because sometimes people are smart if he is angry and emotions can be controlled by his desires. It is not good friends with the intelligent but not moral. Meanwhile, people who fasiq, he does not have the fear of God. And people who do not have the fear of God, you will not survive their tricks, besides he also can not be trusted. The expert heresy, he feared would affect you with ugly kebid'ahannya. (Mukhtashor Minhajul Qashidin, 2 / 36-37)
Hopefully that little could be useful for me and for you sister ...
Ameen ...
