اللَّهُمَّ يَسِّرْ لِي جَلِيسًا صَالِحًا
“O Allah, facilitate for me a righteous companion.” [Bukhari – 3742]
Your company is your mirror.
You don’t just absorb their words—you absorb their mindset, their habits, their priorities. The people around you will either make you stronger in faith or slowly strip it away without you realising it.
The Prophet Muhammad ﷺ said,
“A person follows the religion of his close friend, so let him be careful whom he takes as a friend.” [Abu Dawood – 4833, Tirmidhi – 2378]
This dua isn’t just about having good friends. It’s about being surrounded by people who pull you toward Jannah.
Because the wrong company can make haram feel normal. The right company will make you uncomfortable with sin.
The wrong company will encourage your weaknesses. The right company will challenge you to overcome them.
The wrong company will make you think this life is all there is. The right company will remind you of what truly matters.
And one day, when you’re standing on the bridge of the Hereafter, the difference between salvation and regret may be the people you had surrounded yourself with.
So ask Allah (SWT) for this. Ask for friends who remind you of Him, who pray for you in secret, who want to see you in Jannah. Ask for friendships that are built on something more than convenience or entertainment—ask for bonds that last beyond this world.
And just as you ask for them, strive to be that friend for someone else.
Because true companionship? It’s the kind that doesn’t end at the grave.
