English translation

4834. It was narrated from Yazīd, meaning Ibn Al-Ašamm, from Abū Hurairah – and he attributed to the Prophet ﷺ – "Souls are troops collected together, and those who got along with one another will have an affinity with one another (in this world) and those who did not get along with one another will also not get along (in this world)." (Sahih)

Arabic text

4834 - حَدَّثَنَا هَارُونُ بْنُ زَيْدِ بْنِ أَبِي الزَّرْقَاءِ، حَدَّثَنَا أَبِي، حَدَّثَنَا جَعْفَرٌ يَعْنِي ابْنَ بُرْقَانَ، عَنْ يَزِيدَ يَعْنِي ابْنَ الْأَصَمِّ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ، يَرْفَعُهُ قَالَ: «الْأَرْوَاحُ جُنُودٌ مُجَنَّدَةٌ، فَمَا تَعَارَفَ مِنْهَا ائْتَلَفَ، وَمَا تَنَاكَرَ مِنْهَا اخْتَلَفَ»

Commentary

Having pious and virtuous companions is a great blessing of Allāh. One should be thankful to Allāh for providing this blessing, and also try to strengthen his ties with good people.
