Al-Imaam al-Hasan al-Basree - rahimahullaah - said:
هجران الأØمق قربة إلى الله عز ÙˆØÙ„
'Staying away from the fool is an act of closeness to Allaah the Mighty and Sublimest.'
Al-Uzlah p.
94
Lesson: One of the ways to earn safety in one's Deen is by staying away from people of evil character whom changing them is obviously impossible. Not doing so might make one get influenced by them.
Very unfortunately our time is filled with such people.
We ask Allaah for protection in our Deen.
