1) That he cause trouble for others [his association with this person can be understood by others as his endorsement of incorrect actions or beliefs].

2) That one of these incorrect actions or beliefs would appeal to him, cause him to err, and lead him to Jahannam.

Whoever relies on himself [instead of relying on Allah] to care of his Din will be stripped of it.”
