Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah 27180 — What a man is commanded
٢٧١٨٠ - حدثنا عبد اللَّه بن إدريس عن ابن عجلان عن إبراهيم بن مرة عن محمد بن شهاب قال: قال عمر: لا تعترض فيما لا يعنيك، واعتزل عسدوك، واحتفظ من (خليلك) (١) إلا (الأمين) (٢)، فإن (الأمين) (٣) (٤) يعادله شيء، ولا (تصحب) (٥) الفاجر فيعلمك من فجوره، ولا تفش إليه (بسرك) (٦)، واستشر في أمرك الذين يخشون اللَّه (٧).
Muhammad bin Shihab said that Sayyiduna Umar (may Allah be pleased with him) said: Do not pursue what brings you no benefit. Beware of your enemy, and beware of your friend, except for the trustworthy one, for nothing can equal a trustworthy person among the people. Do not keep the company of the wicked person, for he will teach you some of his wickedness, and do not disclose any secret of yours to him. In your affairs, seek counsel from those who fear Allah Almighty.
