They're NOT your friends! - Mufti Menk 

A friend in deen is a friend indeed.

Be social, be friendly but don't get attached, and influenced by them. You should be able to see the difference between true friends from fake friends.

when i turned to Allah 10 years ago, i lost friends one by one. i was outcast-ed. its been 10 years and i do not have any close friend but Allah ,,,my true and real friend Alhamdulilah. i am 28 years old and it started when i turned 18 ,,,

I want friend just like Sir mufti menk.May Allah grant us .

May Allah allow us to spot true friends from the false friends. aameen

I’ve never had true friends. I have no friends. I’m used to being rejected, and I always expect it. I used to go after people and trying my best to please them and befriend them but I stopped doing that now. Yes, I do feel lonely sometimes but I have patience that someone who follows the deen will be my friend one day and they will influence me in a good way.

I don't have any muslim friends, only Christians. So I told my Christian friend that I'm really trying to avoid music and all that especially in the month of Ramadan. We would FaceTime because of the pandemic, and subhan'Allah, so sweet of her to do. She would turn off the microphone whenever she would listen to music a bit, or whenever there was the noise of any instruments. I also remember she also would wait a couple minutes, because I had to pray. She was so patient! She still is though😊 I don't know why I just wrote this, but it just came to my mind.

Mufti Menk should win an award for one of the best thumbnails on RU-vid His faces in thumbnails are amazing

I literally have no friend or prefer to call no one my friend as there is always people that use you for specific things.

There are few people who are actually ur frnd ... we just need to recognise them 💖

Always keep company with those who remind you of Allah and encourage you to do good.

I've never met my true friends in my life, I thought it was, but yesterday I realized that my true friend is only ALLAH ❤️❤️

I had a really toxic friends circle who I thought were my close friends. I was basically used, mistreated, talked about, taken advantage of, bullied, used as a scapegoat, looked down upon. I was so dumb I let all this go on for about 5 years. To be honest, I would love to hear what they have to say on the day of judgment. Because I told allah everything in my duas and he saw everything. It mentally took a toll on me. I would never stand up for myself. When I finally stood up for myself, I was the bad guy and everyone made me look like the bad person because I had finally snapped. Till this day those scars those people did to me still remain and bug me. Alhumdulilah though, a year ago I kept making sincere dua to Allah that remove these people and please bring a positive friend into my life that will bring back the part of me I lost. Allah answered my duas. I had a client come into my work and we got to talking and he was actually a boxing trainer and I love boxing so we bonded over that. Now we’re really great friends, he does boxing sessions with me every week, we chill, and he’s motivated me and brought so much positivity in my life that I have forgotten about the toxic circle I was part of. he’s also taught me so much just as a person and I’m so greatful to Allah that he put him in my life and that people like him exists. He pulled me out of a situation I felt like I was sinking it.

Always remember Allah before you do a sin

may allah protect us all from evil people and grant us the best of friends who will guide us on the right path. ameen

I tell everyone my problems but at the end of the day only Allah really cares. People might empathize and say a few kinds words to you temporarily or even do the opposite and cause you more harm but Allah will uplift you and completely change your life if you really reach out to Him. Oh Allah, make us amongst those that fulfill our obligations and to remember you, thank you, and worship you in the best way and keep us steadfast on our Deen.

today i found myself subconsciously back biting around this one particular person that brings out the bad in me, I'm not gonna blame it on them, its my fault, but i've come to notice that this friendship has a net negative on both of our lives. I'm a highly influenced person because im constantly seeking validation from others, I need to start validation from Allah (PBUH) only.

May Allah guide us through our best friends. Because some friends could be your worse enemy in some days.

Wow, i heard a saying. "Tolerating others mediocrity only serves to increase your own" May Allah Almighty grant us understanding.

So I had some "friends" for 5 years. After a time they complained that I always remind them when they do sth wrong. This year I decided to take a distance from them. Alhamdullilah they would have lead me to the wrong way. Of course I reminded them privately and in a good way. I always love when people also remind me

I just cried because all this time I have wanted a friend to be close with, my family has moved my hole life everywhere inside this non muslim country, and now to a new place again where I know no one here but this time with my husband who I just married and his family, elhamdulillah But the feeling I have had in me my hole life, that I wanted a close friend/sister was still there I was always thinking, why don't any of my friendship lasts (there isn't a lot of muslim people living here), why is no one giving as much love back as I give to them, I don't feel alone but at the same time, it is always good to have a sister to talk to and be with And only 2 minutes in to this video, I realized that the reason that I have been far from people all this time, where I find myself sitting here and listening to Mufti Menk and learning more and more about islam, made me cry because I realized that maybe if I had a "friend" and did hold on to those who call them selves a friend, but really isn´t, I would maybe not have as much time to learn about islam and be closer to Allah, I am so thankful to be here and learning more about islam and what Allah has created Everything happens for a reason

I’m a teen and I don’t trust anyone anymore. I can joke around but I’m not trusting you like gossiping. It’s a really bad habit don’t do it❤️✌🏼

I finally seen ex best friend for what she really is and also bought bad energy. I gained some good friends.

May Allah(swt) protect us all from evil people and grant us the best of friends who wil guide us on the right path.Ameen🤲

I am a Christian and I love my Muslim brothers and sisters.. ❤😍

Alhamdulilah for all the good friends ❤️ and Alhamdulilah for all the negative ones Allah has taken away 🙏🏻

Today I stopped talking with a guy of my class bcs he keeps talking about Haram stuff even tho he's Muslim and we're only 13 I left him really fast and two of he's friends did the same as me may Allah guide him..

Masha’Allah. May Allah bless my dear friends who brought me to Islam and help me on my journey.

A friend in deen is a friend indeed.❤️😍

Mufti is our best friend! We are blessed.

Salam alaikum brothers and sisters in Islam, my dearest uncle has sadly passed away and I’m asking for you all to please make dua for him and ask Allah subhana wa ta’ala to have mercy on him, allow him to enter jannat al firdaws, forgive his sins, ease the pain, and grant patience to his family and relatives. Ameen❤️😔

I pray blessings and further happiness to my fake friends.

A friend prays right along side you

The dislikes must be a bad influence for others! May Allah grant us jannah n forgive us always🤲🏼

Mufti Menk May ALLAH reward you the positive Dawwa you've been giving throughout the times, for the Muslims and non Muslims who benefit the Dawwa that you have been giving to follow the guidance of the Qur'an and the Sunnah Of Our Prophet Muhammad God Please Be Upon him

A friend on deen is a friend indeed

I left all my friends for my akhirah, it feels much better☺

My second favorite thing about multi menk other than his personality is the thumbnails😂😂😂😂

سبحان الله رغم انني اتكلم العربية و لغتي الانجليزية متوسطة. لكنني أهوى سماع دروسك يا شيخنا الفاضل . جزاك الله خير جزاء 🤲🌸

Mufti Menk May ALLAH reward you Jannah Tul Fardosa and May Allah have mercy for you and your family close and far distance and those who you love

Anyone wanna be friends this comment sections feels like a good place to find good friends

Mufti you are my friend I see and hear you every day 🙂🤲🤲 Alhumdulilah

Indeed. Keep your eyes open. May Allah Grant us good companions Ameen 🤗

Masha’Allah can we take a moment and appreciate his thumbnails

Alhamdulillah im that person that guides my friends away from sin.

I've meet my very dear friend thru social media, he is a Muslim and he is the one who introduced Mufti Menk to me. He gave me too much moral support during my tough times.

JazakAllahKheir. I needed this reminder. I thought I had friends but turns out they only wanted things from me. It was effecting my deen...I have very few true friends now. My last one of 30 years took my money and promised to return it to me, she did not and I had to ask her to leave my home. I'm facing being homeless now and she won't return my money. I love her, I miss her, I forgive her, but it still hurts

Beautiful Said 😭😭 I love how Mufti Menk cares about the Muslim Nation

We should make friends who will help us to get success in not only duniya but also day of judgment too. Thank you mufti 😍😍 absolutely oxidizable.❤️❤️❤️❤️

We are only wanting beautiful friends like our Mufti Menk ~ but I only trust Allah He is the only friend I need ,I never need worrying Allah letting me down ❤🌹

Wow makes me sohappy to hear mufti menk im new in islam but im old in life a bit and this is so helful for me thank you Muftity fo shering yor wisdom, im sorry for my speling im not american

Assalaamu Alaikkum.. May ALLAH bless our friends & closest ones. Ameen.. Love from Kerala.🌴🇮🇳❤

I don't have any friends I was going to start joining social groups to make friends and but then Covid happened. Maybe after Covid I can make Muslim friends go hiking and walking to tea, and coffee, and lunch 😍

I needed this 😊

Some advice I guess: Never share secrets with your friends because when you both get in a fight they will probably expose you

As Salaamu Alaikum Wa Rahmatulahi Wa Barakatuhu. The one who posted this and those who are reading this post and commenting here, I really pray that may Allaah Subhanu Wa Ta'ala bless you and your parents with a healthy long life and gives you relief from the hardships in which you are now. Ameen YaRabilA'lameen🤲. Please Do trust Him, He's your Lord. He won't leave your side. In Sha Allah Ta'ala 🌸 He cares for you. Stay Blessed and have a wonderful day ahead. Ameen Ya RabilA'lameen

Love from the Gambia 🇬🇲🇬🇲

Thank you so much I have made you my true friend May almighty Allah grant us Paradise 🙏 🙏 🙏

Mufti Menk out here for the youngsters. Mashallah keep it going the youth need speakers like this more than ever.

Mufti menk continues to inspire me. Very knowledgeable MashAllah in islam. Have learned so much from mufti menk. Alhamdulillah all praise be to Allah (swt)

Bless mufti menk and his family and also bless Allah S.A.W

I got impressed by your speech. Barakallah feek. You're rendering a good service to the society so I ask dua for you May Allah SWT increase your knowledge under his control. آمين يارب العالمين

A true friend is no one but Allah(swt) He is my everything

When you get a bad friend just know u have to let that friend go away

Make dua for me that i find true freinds; i have no one.

Mufti Menk that was a very good short note of speech to engorouge our friends to do good deeds for sake of ALLAH and get guidance and have mercy for us in this world and also in the hereafter

*If they are clapping for you,it doesn't also meant they want the best for you*

NEVER trust anybody on internet . I did and my trust got broken But Alhumdulillah now i know how they really are ❤❤

I have had 3 best friends since I was 5 years old. And I believe our friendship is very strong and compassionate because Allah has been always a part of our conversation and lifestyle. We always remind each other to be God conscious .

The friend who is with us in all salah is indeed, true friend ...

This bayan is so necessary at this day.

When you make your friends be better person and vise versa then it's truly friendship

Thank you brother, you always pop up when I begin to journey astray, and I come right back on the correct path

Jazakallah Mufti Menk this is one of your best videos you have ever made. Many of us confuse what a real friend is this was so beautiful. I had to send it to my family. May Allah grant you paradise.

I don't have friends and that made me to go closer to Allah 🥺

Beautiful reminder thank you mufti menk

A rare friend is very difficult to find

Thinking about how Mufti Menk does thumbnails 🤔 lots of fun Masha Allah 😂. May God bless everything you do, Ameeen.

I feel So peace When I listen TO Mufti Menk ... Mashallah, Allah Hu akbar ... THanks a lot It also helpd me about have better friend.

Friend in good deeds is a friend indeed

Real people are rare so always stay lowkey

What a helpful and empowered message

asalamoalequm mufti menk saheb...I will b very happy if you will b my friend...you have made me a beautiful human being...u made me close to my almighty..may Allah subhantallaah bless you too.

Our enemy, syaithon is indeed strong and clever...because we acknowledge them, so that we need to be really really really careful before selecting those will be our company to beat them. With Allah's Mercy, just don't get carried away with such environments.

Thumbnails of mufti menk's video are amazing

MAA SHAA Allah ❤️ it's a very beautiful reminder, May Allah SWT bless us with friends who will be a cause of goodness for us in this life n here after, Ameen 🤲🏻

I used to know someone who was a best friend with a bully, she was mean, but after she left the bully there was a huge difference she became so kind and friendly. That's when I realized that bad friends could truly affect you

Thank you sheikh for the beautiful massage ❤️😇

Ur voice is so beautiful when I hear ur voice it makes me soooo sleepy and calm I just listen to ur voice and I fall asleep

Thankyou for this i have a few friends but i know that everything haram or things we told are sins is because it hurts us it hurts others. This was so helpful too. Thankyou i am greatful to learn all this. Most people never get to know about islam all were told is negative things even by most religions and im thankful for all this learning 🙏 im sure others are too who are curious about islam and these can the worlds view of it and lies we been told and taught.

May Allah SWT give us the best friends ameen💫

Alhamdulillah🤲🏾 May Allah(SWT) guide us all to friendships that don’t take us away from Allah(SWT)

Fantastic video Mr Menk. And we must be able to notice who is our a friend & toxic people Please get away from toxic people they hurt your feelings & play with them

A true friend mentions ALLAH to you in your presence while he mentions you to ALLAH in his presence.

I really needed this, barakallahu fik mufti ❤
