Jami' al-Saghir / Jam' al-Jawami' (al-Suyuti) 19814a
"مَثَلُ الْجَلِيسِ الصالِحِ والْجَلِيسِ السُّوءِ كَمَثَلِ صاحِب (). الْمسْكِ وكِيرِ الحدَّاد، لَا يعْدِمُكَ مِنْ صَاحِب الْمِسْكِ إِمَّا تَشْتَرِيه أَوْ تَجِدُ رِيحه، وَكِيرُ الْحَدَّادِ يَحْرق بَدنَك أَو ثَوْبَك، أَوْ تَجِدُ مِنْهُ رِيحًا خَبِيثةً".

"The example of the good companion and the bad companion is like the example of the owner of musk and the owner of the blacksmith's bellows. The owner of musk will not leave you without benefit: either you buy from him or you find his scent. The blacksmith's bellows will burn your body or your clothes, or you will find from it a foul smell."
