Munir El-Kassem begins a conference on the theme of education by delivering a khutbah about the "informal" education that is often neglected when discussions in this area take place. This "informal" education, as he explains, is that education we get all the time from those who we surround ourselves with and the influences they have on us, consciously or unconsciously. Brother Munir relates some ahadith that address this matter explicitly. Then, most importantly, he outlines the criteria based on the Qur'an and Sunnah that we can use to judge who is a good friend and who is not. An essential tape for Muslims of all ages, but especially those youth attending public schools and their parents.

"The kind of friends we keep as young or old [people] are most important on the kind of education we will be getting, on the kind of lifestyle we will be keeping. And if this is the case, we need to be very careful in the way we select our friends."
