| The Sahaba and the AHL-UL-BAYT |
 |
- A Sahabi (Companion of thr Prophet) is that Muslim who has assisted in the holy court of the Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) - in the Holy Prophet's (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) presence - and has passed away from this world with faith.
- All Sahabis are worthy of praise and are pious. They are also sincere in their Islamic judgement and in their Islamic actions. When there is talk of a Sahabi, it is compulsory that it be with praise, honour and idgnity.
- To have bad beliefs for any of the Sahabis is mis-guidance and belonging to the wrong sect.
- To speak ill of the dignity of Hazrat Amir Mua'awiya, Hazrat Amr Bin Aas, Hazrat Wahshi (radi Allahu anhum), etc. to curse them and this is a Shi'ite belief.
- According to Islamic Jurists, to insult Hazrat Shaikhain (Hazrat Abu Bakr and Hazrat Farouk-e-Azam (radi Allahu anhum) or to reject their position as Caliphs is infidelity.
- Regardless of how high a rank a Wali is, they would never reach the grade of a Sahabi.
- The battle between Hazrat Ali (radi Allahu anhu) and Hazrat Amir Mua'awiya (radi Allahu anhu) was a mistake in the interpretation of Islamic Law and, therefore, is not a sin. Therefore, to call Hazrat Amir Mua'awiya (radi Allahu anhu) cruel, treacherous, etc., is all strictly forbidden and not allowed. This is in fact a curse and the person is a Shi'ite.
- Even among the Sahaba, some of them are more excellent in status than others.
- After the Prophets, Hazrat Abu Bakr Siddique (radi Allahu anhu) holds the greatest status, then Sayyiduna Umar-e-Farouk, Hazrat Usman-e-Ghani and Hazrat Ali-e-Murtaza (radi Allahu anhum).
- After these Khulafa-e-Raashideen come the rest of the Ash-harah Mubasharah (those who were given glad tidings of Jannah by the Prophet sallal laahu alaihi wasallam), then Hazrat Hasnain Karimain, Ashaab-e-Badr and Ashaab-e-Baitur Ridwaan. All of them will go to Jannah.

| Who are the AHL-UL-BAYT? |
- The Ahl-e-Bait are the Holy Prophet's (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam) wives and children.
- To love the Sahaba and Ahl-e-Bait is to love the Holy Prophet (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).
- Hazraat Hasnain (Imaam Hasan and Hussain) (radi Allahu anhuma) are of the highest grade of Martyrs. Those who reject any of their Martyrdoms is a misguided person and an evil hypocrite.
- Those who call Hazrat Imaam Hussain (radi Allahu anhu) a traitor or show Yazid as correct is a rejected person and a Kharji and therefore rightful of the Fire of hell. There is no doubt in Yazid being wrong, however, one is not supposed to call Yazid a Kaafir or a Muslim, but remain quiet as there is difference of opinion on his faith.
- Those who do not love the Sahaba or Ahl-e-Bait are misguided.
- To get involved in the details of disagreements between the Sahaba is strictly forbidden. To hold them against their mistakes or because of this, blame them or show them as no longer evident on faith is not permissible and is against the order of Allah or His Messenger (sallal laahu alaihi wasallam).
