Companionship

Our master Abu Darda the companion, said to his blessed wife, the great lady Umm al-Darda: 

"If you see that I am angry, then appease me (i.e. bring to a state of peace, calm) and if I see that you are angry, I will appease you - otherwise why should we keep company with one another?"

When this saying reached Imam Zuhri, he said: "That is how companionship should be."
