أَخْبَرَنَا عُمَرُ بْنُ مُحَمَّدٍ الْهَمْدَانِيُّ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْجَبَّارِ بْنُ الْعَلَاءِ قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ عَنْ بُرَيْدِ بْنِ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ عَنْ جَدِّهِ عَنْ أَبِي مُوسَى قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ﷺ
«مَثَلُ الْجَلِيسِ الصَّالِحِ مَثَلُ الْعَطَّارِ إِنْ لَمْ يُصِبْكَ مِنْهُ أَصَابَكَ رِيحُهُ وَمَثَلُ الْجَلِيسِ السُّوءِ مَثَلُ الْقَيْنِ إِنْ لَمْ يُحْرِقْكَ بِشَرَرِهِ عَلِقَ بِكَ مِنْ رِيحِهِ»
