English Translation of Hadith
Hazrat Abu Saeed Khudri (May Allah be pleased with him) reported: The Messenger of Allah
[SAWW](PBUH) said, "Keep only a believer for a companion and let only a pious eat your food".[At-Tirmidhi Hadith # 2395
and Abu Dawud, Hadith # 4832].
Lesson : as mentioned above in Surah Al-Furqan Ayat 28."Woe to me! Would that I had never taken so-and-so as a friend" This Hadith forbids Muslims from befriending infidels and stresses that they should establish a bond of friendship and fraternity with the pious persons only. The above Hadith signifies that taking believers for company has good consequences on the Muslim. While feeding only pious people compels the Muslim host to provide only Halal or lawful foodstuff for his household as well as his guests.
