<![CDATA[Teenagers can broaden their horizons through the flow of globalization, which allows them to form friendships with individuals from different parts of the world. These friends can meet in person or virtually via social media (Mobile), but the greater the involvement of both parties, the more likely it is that the relationship will lead to unexpected situations. So, it is important for teenagers to be picky in choosing friends to hang out. The goal is to prevent adolescents from engaging in antisocial activities. The purpose of this research is to better understand the teachings of the hadith about choosing friends and how it relates to the development of adolescent character. This study applies a qualitative approach through literature research. Some primary data sources include hadith references on the selection of friends from the sahih bukhari hadith no. 5534 while secondary data is sourced from relevant scientific books, theses, and journals. First, the findings of this study highlight the importance of choosing the social environment carefully, because our friends greatly influence our lives both positively and negatively. In addition to being kind, good friends can increase our desire to uphold good principles, which are especially important in religious contexts, as taught in Islam. On the other hand, negative friends can influence our actions and choices. Second, it is stated in the Qur'an and the hadith of the Prophet Muhammad, it is friends and companions who show the way to the truth, such as having a trustworthy leader in our midst.
