"...Consult only those who fear Allaah..."

Umar `radhi allahu anhu said,

“Do not speak about that which does not concern you.
Know your enemy and be wary of your friend, except for the trustworthy one.
And no one is trustworthy, except for the person who fears Allah.
Do not walk with the evildoer, lest he teaches you some of his wickedness; and do not reveal your secrets to him.
And when you consult others in your affairs, consult only those who fear Allah ‘Azza wa jall (the possessor of might and majesty)”

 Ibn Al-Jawzee (rahimahullaah), Sifatus-Safwah pg. 1/149
