Arabic (Original)
حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ سَعِيدٍ عَنْ سُفْيَانَ حَدَّثَنِي عَبْدُ الْمَلِكِ بْنُ عُمَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْحَارِثِ حَدَّثَنَا الْعَبَّاسُ قَالَ قُلْتُ لِلنَّبِيِّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ مَا أَغْنَيْتَ عَنْ عَمِّكَ فَقَدْ كَانَ يَحُوطُكَ وَيَغْضَبُ لَكَ قَالَ هُوَ فِي ضَحْضَاحٍ وَلَوْلَا أَنَا لَكَانَ فِي الدَّرْكِ الْأَسْفَلِ مِنْ النَّارِ.
English Translation
Abu Musa al-Ash'ari reported from the Prophet (peace be upon him) who said: 'The example of a good companion and a bad companion is like the bearer of musk and the bellows-blower. The bearer of musk will either give you some, or you will buy from him, or you will find a pleasant smell. The bellows-blower will either burn your clothes or you will find a foul smell.'
