Men Around the messenger

The Sahaba were the companions of the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) to whom the Deen of Islam was revealed through the Quran and Sunnah Hadith.

While reading this Apps (based on the book of Men Around The Messenger (ﷺ) By Khalid Muhammad Khalid,) we cannot help but be moved by the lives of the Companions of Prophet. How we long to have their awe and reverence for Allah.How we long to spend the same hours in worship as they! How we long to be as brave as they were in the face of danger! How we long to be as patient as they were under torture!

Narrated `Abd Allah (May Allah be pleased with him): The Prophet (ﷺ) said, "The best people are those living in my generation, and then those who will follow them, and then those who will follow the latter. Then there will come some people who will bear witness before taking oaths, and take oaths before bearing witness." (Bukhaarii)

It is our hope that this Apps will fulfill a need for the English speaking Muslim to learn more about that first generation of Muslims. Indeed the Companions those men and women who were contemporaneous with the Prophet Muhammad (ﷺ) inspire and encourage us. Read these stories and share them with your children, for these Companions are a part of our Islamic heritage that will, Allah willing, strengthen us as a nation if we try to follow their examples.
