Companionship is a serious matter in life. We must strive to always be with the righteous people as Allāh commanded us. 

يٰۤـاَيُّهَا الَّذِيْنَ اٰمَنُوا اتَّقُوا اللّٰهَ وَكُوْنُوْا مَعَ الصّٰدِقِيْنَ

O you who have believed, fear Allah and be with those who are true. (QS. At-Tawba: Verse 119)

The way Allāh سبحانه وتعالى pulled out Amir Muhaddith "Loon" from the midst of the Bad Boys Entertainment and made him a caller to His path is miraculous. 

Despite all the trials he later faced that made him to be in prison for some years, the joy and momentum of being guided to Islam (and Sunnah) supersedes. It is now 15 years since he accepted Islām in the UAE. May Allāh continue to strengthen him and all of us upon goodness. 

Indeed, Allāh guides whoever He wishes and he is capable of doing all things. It is by His wish and command that all things are made to be the way they are.

Allāh says in Suratu Nahl:

اِنَّمَا قَوْلُـنَا لِشَيْءٍ اِذَاۤ اَرَدْنٰهُ اَنْ نَّقُوْلَ لَهٗ كُنْ فَيَكُوْنُ

Indeed, Our word to a thing when We intend it is but that We say to it, Be, and it is. (QS. An-Nahl: Verse 40)

May Allāh not make us to be misled after we have been guided.
