Road to Good Friendship

The Road to Good Friendship by Abdul Malik Al‑Qasim is an English Islamic booklet published by Darussalam Publishers that offers evidence‑based advice on cultivating meaningful, lasting friendships rooted in Prophetic teachings and the example of the Salaf (pious predecessors). Rather than vague advice, the author selects illuminating sayings of Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, his Companions, and early righteous scholars to show why friendship matters, how it shapes a believer’s character, and what principles help build a harmonious, justice‑oriented Muslim society. By placing friendship in an Islamic ethical framework, the book encourages readers to choose companions wisely, nurture bonds that strengthen faith and good conduct, and avoid influences that weaken spiritual and social wellbeing.
