The questioner is advised to supplicate frequently for the one whose guidance is desired, to study the texts of the two revelations (Quran and ) that warn against alcohol and clarify its worldly and otherworldly dangers, and to frequently remember the states of the people of the graves and the Hereafter. He is also advised to encourage him to learn beneficial knowledge and to have righteous company, for "a man is upon the religion of his intimate friend."
