In the Name of Allah, Most Merciful, Most Compassionate
Assalaamu alaykum
Dear Friends
I pray that you are well.
A conversation between Imam Shafi'i and Imam Ahmad, may Allah have mercy on them.
Imam Shafi'i said:
احب الصالحين ولست منهم *** لعلي أن انال بهم شفاعة
واكره من تجارته المعاصي *** وإن كنا سواء في البضاعة
I love the righteous, although I'm not of them
Perhaps I shall receive intercession through them
And I hate he who trades in sins (deals in acts of disobedience)
Although we are both dealing in the same trade.
So Imam Ahmad responded:
فرد عليه الامام احمد رحمه الله
تحب الصالحين وانت منهم *** ومنكم سوف يلقون الشفاعة
وتكره من تجارته المعاصي *** وقانا الله من شر البضاعة
You love the righteous and you are of them
And from you shall they receive intercession
And you hate he who trades in sins
May Allah protect us from the evil of such trade
We should love the righteous people and not considered ourselves as one of them. May Allah make us humble and make us among the righteous and the truthful. Ameen.

And Allah knows best.
