2395. Abū Sa'eed narrated that the Messenger of Allāh ﷺ said: "Do not accompany except a believer, and do not serve your food except to one with Taqwā." (Sahīh) [Abū 'Eisā said:] This Hadīth [is Hasan], we only know of it through this route.
٢٣٩٥ - حَدَّثَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا ابْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ ، عَنْ حَيْوَةَ بْنِ شُرَيْحٍ، قَالَ: حَدَّثَنِي سَالِمُ بْنُ غَيْلَانَ، أَنَّ الْوَلِيدَ بْنَ قَيْسٍ التُّجِيبِيَّ ، أَخْبَرَهُ أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ أَبَا سَعِيدٍ الْخُدْرِيَّ قَالَ: سَالِمٌ أَوْ عَنْ أَبِي الْهَيْثَمِ ، عَنْ أَبِي سَعِيدٍ، أَنَّهُ سَمِعَ رَسُولَ اللهِ صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ يَقُولُ: «لَا تُصَاحِبْ إِلَّا مُؤْمِنًا، وَلَا يَأْكُلْ طَعَامَكَ إِلَّا تَقِيٌّ». هَذَا حَدِيثٌ حَسَنٌ إِنَّمَا نَعْرِفُهُ مِنْ هَذَا الْوَجْهِ.

A believer's mixing and socializing should only be limited to the believers. Invitation to share the meals out of the sentiments of love and affection should only be extended to persons of piety and virtue. Nevertheless, feeding the poor and the hungry is another matter, since even the idolaters had sometimes shared the meals with the Prophet ﷺ at his house (Tuhfat Al-Ahwadhi, v. 3, p.285, Kawākib Al-Ādāb, v.3, p.269)
