A benefit of keeping good company: Some of the angels travel throughout the world, seeking out gatherings of dhikr (remembrance of Allaah). Allah asks them about the people in these gatherings. He then says: "You are My witnesses that I have forgiven them." One of the angels says: "So-and-so is not really one of them; he came (to the gathering) for some other reason." Allah says, "They were all in the gathering, and one of them will not be excluded (from forgiveness)." (al-Bukhaari)
