A detergent compatible granular fabric softening composition, comprising a water soluble quaternary ammonium compound, a clay having an ion exchange capacity of at least 50 meq./100 g and one or more amides, imides and urea derivatives according to four specifically defined formulae. A preferred group of amides to be applied are those according to the formula <IMAGE> wherein R1 represents a C1-C22 alkyl group and wherein R2 and R3, independently, represent hydrogen, C1-C22 alkyl, -(C2H4O)xH or -(C3H6O)xH wherein x has a value of 1 to 25, with the provisos that the sum of the carbon atoms of two radicals of R1, R2 and R3 is at least 16 and R2 and R3 are not at the same time hydrogen. More preferred are N-stearylstearamide or N-oleylpalmitamide. Additionally the invention relates to detergent compositions comprising these softening compositions.
