The sacrifice of the sahaba(companions) for the deen.

 The sacrifice of the sahaba(companions) for the deen. 

Alhamdulillah, the sahaba(companions) sacrificed their life a lot to see the progress and the spread of this religion. 

The fought with their lives, their families, their wealth and everything for the sake of Allah and Allah s.w.t was pleased with them and appreciated them. 

The companions were the best of generations because they lived with the messenger of Allah sall Allahu alayhi wasalam and supported him. 

So when the messenger of Allah s.w.t was asked which people were the best? 

The messenger of Allah salla Allahu alayhi wasalam said, 

The best qarn(generations) are the people whom i have lived with and the next are those who came after them and those who will come after them. 

I hope the last will understand my message better than you do. 

Sahih by Tirmidhee. 

The sahaba lived in hunger, their wealth taken because they accepted islam but never let their faith to decrease. 

It increased their eeman. 

They abandon their families who rejected their faith and oppose Allah and his rasool and Allah saw their level of faith after being tested in all forms of life and gave them jannah. 

Allah says, 

Do men think that they will not be tested after saying We had believe? 

Verily we have tested those before them and knew those who were truthful and those who were liars. 

Surah Ankaboot 27;2-3.

So never make what they say or critics of people to make us reject the religion. 

The prophets were abused, insulted and at the end, Allah made them strong and victorious upon their enemies. 

Allah says, 

As-Saf 61:14

O you who have believed, be supporters of Allāh, as when Jesus, the son of Mary, said to the disciples, "Who are my supporters for Allāh?" The disciples said, "We are supporters of Allāh." And a faction of the Children of Israel believed and a faction disbelieved. So We supported those who believed against their enemy, and they became dominant.

Allah says, 

Al-Ma'idah 5:54

O you who have believed, whoever of you should revert from his religion - Allāh will bring forth [in place of them] a people He will love and who will love Him [who are] humble toward the believers, strong against the disbelievers; they strive in the cause of Allāh and do not fear the blame of a critic. That is the favor of Allāh; He bestows it upon whom He wills. And Allāh is all-Encompassing and Knowing.

May Allah make us stronger during this time of trials. Aamin
