Sahih al-Bukhari 2026 (Book 34, Hadith 54)
bad one, is like that of the musk seller and the blacksmith’s bellows (or furnace); from the first you
would either buy musk or enjoy its good smell while the bellows would either burn your clothes or
your house, or you get a bad nasty smell thereof.”
“ مَثَلُ الْجَلِيسِ الصَّالِحِ وَالْجَلِيسِ السَّوْءِ كَمَثَلِ صَاحِبِ الْمِسْكِ، وَكِيرِ الْحَدَّادِ، لاَ يَعْدَمُكَ مِنْ صَاحِبِ الْمِسْكِ إِمَّا تَشْتَرِيهِ، أَوْ تَجِدُ رِيحَهُ، وَكِيرُ الْحَدَّادِ يُحْرِقُ بَدَنَكَ أَوْ ثَوْبَكَ أَوْ تَجِدُ مِنْهُ رِيحًا خَبِيثَةً ”.
