Companions from the point of view of Ahle Beit

On the first day, the prophet (peace of Allah be upon him and his descendants) supported some of his elite disciples and tried a lot to train them so that each one could become responsible for universal mission. Quran states
وَکَذَٰلِکَ جَعَلْنَاکُمْ أُمَّةً وَسَطًا لِّتَکُونُوا شُهَدَاءَ عَلَى النَّاسِ وَیَکُونَ الرَّسُولُ عَلَیْکُمْ شَهِیدًا ۗ وَمَا جَعَلْنَا الْقِبْلَةَ الَّتِی کُنتَ عَلَیْهَا إِلَّا لِنَعْلَمَ مَن یَتَّبِعُ الرَّسُولَ مِمَّن یَنقَلِبُ عَلَىٰ عَقِبَیْهِ ۚ وَإِن کَانَتْ لَکَبِیرَةً إِلَّا عَلَى الَّذِینَ هَدَى اللَّهُ ۗ وَمَا کَانَ اللَّهُ لِیُضِیعَ إِیمَانَکُمْ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ بِالنَّاسِ لَرَءُوفٌ رَّحِیمٌ
Thus, have We made of you an Ummat justly balanced, that ye might be witnesses over the nations, and the Messenger a witness over yourselves; and We appointed the Qibla to which thou wast used, only to test those who followed the Messenger from those who would turn on their heels (From the Faith). Indeed it was (A change) momentous, except to those guided by Allah. And never would Allah Make your faith of no effect. For Allah is to all people Most surely full of kindness, Most Merciful.
لَّقَد تَّابَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّبِیِّ وَالْمُهَاجِرِینَ وَالْأَنصَارِ الَّذِینَ اتَّبَعُوهُ فِی سَاعَةِ الْعُسْرَةِ مِن بَعْدِ مَا کَادَ یَزِیغُ قُلُوبُ فَرِیقٍ مِّنْهُمْ ثُمَّ تَابَ عَلَیْهِمْ ۚ إِنَّهُ بِهِمْ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِیمٌ
Allah turned with favour to the Prophet, the Muhajirs, and the Ansar,- who followed him in a time of distress, after that the hearts of a part of them had nearly swerved (from duty); but He turned to them (also): for He is unto them Most Kind, Most Merciful.
God states about decent persons
وَالسَّابِقُونَ الْأَوَّلُونَ مِنَ الْمُهَاجِرِینَ وَالْأَنصَارِ وَالَّذِینَ اتَّبَعُوهُم بِإِحْسَانٍ رَّضِیَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمْ وَرَضُوا عَنْهُ وَأَعَدَّ لَهُمْ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِی تَحْتَهَا الْأَنْهَارُ خَالِدِینَ فِیهَا أَبَدًا ۚ ذَٰلِکَ الْفَوْزُ الْعَظِیمُ
The vanguard (of Islam)- the first of those who forsook (their homes) and of those who gave them aid, and (also) those who follow them in (all) good deeds,- well-pleased is Allah with them, as are they with Him: for them hath He prepared gardens under which rivers flow, to dwell therein for ever: that is the supreme felicity.
مُّحَمَّدٌ رَّسُولُ اللَّهِ ۚ وَالَّذِینَ مَعَهُ أَشِدَّاءُ عَلَى الْکُفَّارِ رُحَمَاءُ بَیْنَهُمْ ۖ تَرَاهُمْ رُکَّعًا سُجَّدًا یَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًا مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَرِضْوَانًا ۖ سِیمَاهُمْ فِی وُجُوهِهِم مِّنْ أَثَرِ السُّجُودِ ۚ ذَٰلِکَ مَثَلُهُمْ فِی التَّوْرَاةِ ۚ وَمَثَلُهُمْ فِی الْإِنجِیلِ کَزَرْعٍ أَخْرَجَ شَطْأَهُ فَآزَرَهُ فَاسْتَغْلَظَ فَاسْتَوَىٰ عَلَىٰ سُوقِهِ یُعْجِبُ الزُّرَّاعَ لِیَغِیظَ بِهِمُ الْکُفَّارَ ۗ وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِینَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ مِنْهُم مَّغْفِرَةً وَأَجْرًا عَظِیمًا
Muhammad is the messenger of Allah; and those who are with him are strong against Unbelievers, (but) compassionate amongst each other. Thou wilt see them bow and prostrate themselves (in prayer), seeking Grace from Allah and (His) Good Pleasure. On their faces are their marks, (being) the traces of their prostration. This is their similitude in the Taurat; and their similitude in the Gospel is: like a seed which sends forth its blade, then makes it strong; it then becomes thick, and it stands on its own stem, (filling) the sowers with wonder and delight. As a result, it fills the Unbelievers with rage at them. Allah has promised those among them who believe and do righteous deeds forgiveness, and a great Reward.
It is narrated from the prophet (peace of Allah be upon him and his descendants)
أَنَا أَمَنَةٌ لِأَصْحَابِی، فَإذَا قُبِضْتُ دَنَا مِنْ أَصْحَابِی مَا یُوعَدُونَ وَ أَصْحَابِی أمَنَةٌ لِأُمَّتِی، فَإِذَا قُبِضَ أَصْحَابِی دَنَا مِنْ أُمَّتِی مَا یَوعَدُونَ وَلَا یَزَالُ هَذَا الدینُ ظَاهِراً عَلَی الأدْیَانِ کُلِّهَا مَا دَامَ فِیکُمْ مَنْ قَدْ رَآنِی
There are some interpretations in Quran about the description of companions and introduces their position as great rank, but difficult as Quran states
لَّقَد تَّابَ اللَّهُ عَلَى النَّبِیِّ وَالْمُهَاجِرِینَ وَالْأَنصَارِ الَّذِینَ اتَّبَعُوهُ فِی سَاعَةِ الْعُسْرَةِ مِن بَعْدِ مَا کَادَ یَزِیغُ قُلُوبُ فَرِیقٍ مِّنْهُمْ ثُمَّ تَابَ عَلَیْهِمْ ۚ إِنَّهُ بِهِمْ رَءُوفٌ رَّحِیمٌ
Allah turned with favour to the Prophet, the Muhajirs, and the Ansar,- who followed him in a time of distress, after that the hearts of a part of them had nearly swerved (from duty); but He turned to them (also): for He is unto them Most Kind, Most Merciful.
مُّحَمَّدٌ رَّسُولُ اللَّهِ ۚ وَالَّذِینَ مَعَهُ أَشِدَّاءُ عَلَى الْکُفَّارِ رُحَمَاءُ بَیْنَهُمْ ۖ تَرَاهُمْ رُکَّعًا سُجَّدًا یَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًا مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَرِضْوَانًا ۖ سِیمَاهُمْ فِی وُجُوهِهِم مِّنْ أَثَرِ السُّجُودِ ۚ ذَٰلِکَ مَثَلُهُمْ فِی التَّوْرَاةِ ۚ وَمَثَلُهُمْ فِی الْإِنجِیلِ کَزَرْعٍ أَخْرَجَ شَطْأَهُ فَآزَرَهُ فَاسْتَغْلَظَ فَاسْتَوَىٰ عَلَىٰ سُوقِهِ یُعْجِبُ الزُّرَّاعَ لِیَغِیظَ بِهِمُ الْکُفَّارَ ۗ وَعَدَ اللَّهُ الَّذِینَ آمَنُوا وَعَمِلُوا الصَّالِحَاتِ مِنْهُم مَّغْفِرَةً وَأَجْرًا عَظِیمًا

فَاسْتَجَابَ لَهُمْ رَبُّهُمْ أَنِّی لَا أُضِیعُ عَمَلَ عَامِلٍ مِّنکُم مِّن ذَکَرٍ أَوْ أُنثَىٰ ۖ بَعْضُکُم مِّن بَعْضٍ ۖ فَالَّذِینَ هَاجَرُوا وَأُخْرِجُوا مِن دِیَارِهِمْ وَأُوذُوا فِی سَبِیلِی وَقَاتَلُوا وَقُتِلُوا لَأُکَفِّرَنَّ عَنْهُمْ سَیِّئَاتِهِمْ وَلَأُدْخِلَنَّهُمْ جَنَّاتٍ تَجْرِی مِن تَحْتِهَا الْأَنْهَارُ ثَوَابًا مِّنْ عِندِ اللَّهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ عِندَهُ حُسْنُ الثَّوَابِ
And their Lord hath accepted of them, and answered them: "Never will I suffer to be lost the work of any of you, be he male or female: Ye are members, one of another: Those who have left their homes, or been driven out therefrom, or suffered harm in My Cause, or fought or been slain,- verily, I will blot out from them their iniquities, and admit them into Gardens with rivers flowing beneath;- A reward from the presence of Allah, and from His presence is the best of rewards.
لَّیْسَ الْبِرَّ أَن تُوَلُّوا وُجُوهَکُمْ قِبَلَ الْمَشْرِقِ وَالْمَغْرِبِ وَلَٰکِنَّ الْبِرَّ مَنْ آمَنَ بِاللَّهِ وَالْیَوْمِ الْآخِرِ وَالْمَلَائِکَةِ وَالْکِتَابِ وَالنَّبِیِّینَ وَآتَى الْمَالَ عَلَىٰ حُبِّهِ ذَوِی الْقُرْبَىٰ وَالْیَتَامَىٰ وَالْمَسَاکِینَ وَابْنَ السَّبِیلِ وَالسَّائِلِینَ وَفِی الرِّقَابِ وَأَقَامَ الصَّلَاةَ وَآتَى الزَّکَاةَ وَالْمُوفُونَ بِعَهْدِهِمْ إِذَا عَاهَدُوا ۖ وَالصَّابِرِینَ فِی الْبَأْسَاءِ وَالضَّرَّاءِ وَحِینَ الْبَأْسِ ۗ أُولَٰئِکَ الَّذِینَ صَدَقُوا ۖ وَأُولَٰئِکَ هُمُ الْمُتَّقُونَ
It is not righteousness that ye turn your faces Towards east or West; but it is righteousness- to believe in Allah and the Last Day, and the Angels, and the Book, and the Messengers; to spend of your substance, out of love for Him, for your kin, for orphans, for the needy, for the wayfarer, for those who ask, and for the ransom of slaves; to be steadfast in prayer, and practice regular charity; to fulfil the contracts which ye have made; and to be firm and patient, in pain (or suffering) and adversity, and throughout all periods of panic. Such are the people of truth, the Allah-fearing.
Amir Al-Momenin (peace be upon him) states about companions
''أُصِیکُمْ بِأَصْحَابِ نَبِیِّکُمْ... وَ هُمُ الَّذِینَ لَمْ یُحْدِثَوا بَعْدَهُ حَدَثاً وَلَمْ یُؤْوُوا مُحْدِثاً فَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ (صلی الله علیه و آله و سلم) أَوْصَی بِهِم''
Quran states
أَنزَلَ مِنَ السَّمَاءِ مَاءً فَسَالَتْ أَوْدِیَةٌ بِقَدَرِهَا فَاحْتَمَلَ السَّیْلُ زَبَدًا رَّابِیًا ۚ وَمِمَّا یُوقِدُونَ عَلَیْهِ فِی النَّارِ ابْتِغَاءَ حِلْیَةٍ أَوْ مَتَاعٍ زَبَدٌ مِّثْلُهُ ۚ کَذَٰلِکَ یَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْحَقَّ وَالْبَاطِلَ ۚ فَأَمَّا الزَّبَدُ فَیَذْهَبُ جُفَاءً ۖ وَأَمَّا مَا یَنفَعُ النَّاسَ فَیَمْکُثُ فِی الْأَرْضِ ۚ کَذَٰلِکَ یَضْرِبُ اللَّهُ الْأَمْثَالَ
He sends down water from the skies, and the channels flow, each according to its measure: But the torrent bears away to foam that mounts up to the surface. Even so, from that (ore) which they heat in the fire, to make ornaments or utensils therewith, there is a scum likewise. Thus doth Allah (by parables) show forth Truth and Vanity. For the scum disappears like forth cast out; while that which is for the good of mankind remains on the earth. Thus doth Allah set forth parables.
فَبَدَأَ بِأَوْعِیَتِهِمْ قَبْلَ وِعَاءِ أَخِیهِ ثُمَّ اسْتَخْرَجَهَا مِن وِعَاءِ أَخِیهِ ۚ کَذَٰلِکَ کِدْنَا لِیُوسُفَ ۖ مَا کَانَ لِیَأْخُذَ أَخَاهُ فِی دِینِ الْمَلِکِ إِلَّا أَن یَشَاءَ اللَّهُ ۚ نَرْفَعُ دَرَجَاتٍ مَّن نَّشَاءُ ۗ وَفَوْقَ کُلِّ ذِی عِلْمٍ عَلِیمٌ
So he began (the search) with their baggage, before (he came to) the baggage of his brother: at length he brought it out of his brother´s baggage. Thus did We plan for Joseph. He could not take his brother by the law of the king except that Allah willed it (so). We raise to degrees (of wisdom) whom We please: but over all endued with knowledge is one, the All-Knowing.
یُؤْتِی الْحِکْمَةَ مَن یَشَاءُ ۚ وَمَن یُؤْتَ الْحِکْمَةَ فَقَدْ أُوتِیَ خَیْرًا کَثِیرًا ۗ وَمَا یَذَّکَّرُ إِلَّا أُولُو الْأَلْبَابِ
He granteth wisdom to whom He pleaseth; and he to whom wisdom is granted receiveth indeed a benefit overflowing; but none will grasp the Message but men of understanding.
هُمْ دَرَجَاتٌ عِندَ اللَّهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ بَصِیرٌ بِمَا یَعْمَلُونَ
They are in varying gardens in the sight of Allah, and Allah sees well all that they do.
Quran states about the rank of the descending of the verses of Quran
وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَن یُعْجِبُکَ قَوْلُهُ فِی الْحَیَاةِ الدُّنْیَا وَیُشْهِدُ اللَّهَ عَلَىٰ مَا فِی قَلْبِهِ وَهُوَ أَلَدُّ الْخِصَامِ
There is the type of man whose speech about this world´s life May dazzle thee, and he calls Allah to witness about what is in his heart; yet is he the most contentious of enemies.
وَإِذَا تَوَلَّىٰ سَعَىٰ فِی الْأَرْضِ لِیُفْسِدَ فِیهَا وَیُهْلِکَ الْحَرْثَ وَالنَّسْلَ ۗ وَاللَّهُ لَا یُحِبُّ الْفَسَادَ
When he turns his back, His aim everywhere is to spread mischief through the earth and destroy crops and cattle. But Allah loveth not mischief.
وَمِنَ النَّاسِ مَن یَشْرِی نَفْسَهُ ابْتِغَاءَ مَرْضَاتِ اللَّهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ رَءُوفٌ بِالْعِبَادِ
And there is the type of man who gives his life to earn the pleasure of Allah: And Allah is full of kindness to (His) devotees.
Quran states about hypocrites
وَمِمَّنْ حَوْلَکُم مِّنَ الْأَعْرَابِ مُنَافِقُونَ ۖ وَمِنْ أَهْلِ الْمَدِینَةِ ۖ مَرَدُوا عَلَى النِّفَاقِ لَا تَعْلَمُهُمْ ۖ نَحْنُ نَعْلَمُهُمْ ۚ سَنُعَذِّبُهُم مَّرَّتَیْنِ ثُمَّ یُرَدُّونَ إِلَىٰ عَذَابٍ عَظِیمٍ
Certain of the desert Arabs round about you are hypocrites, as well as (desert Arabs) among the Medina folk: they are obstinate in hypocrisy: thou knowest them not: We know them: twice shall We punish them: and in addition shall they be sent to a grievous penalty.
قُلْ إِن کَانَ آبَاؤُکُمْ وَأَبْنَاؤُکُمْ وَإِخْوَانُکُمْ وَأَزْوَاجُکُمْ وَعَشِیرَتُکُمْ وَأَمْوَالٌ اقْتَرَفْتُمُوهَا وَتِجَارَةٌ تَخْشَوْنَ کَسَادَهَا وَمَسَاکِنُ تَرْضَوْنَهَا أَحَبَّ إِلَیْکُم مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَرَسُولِهِ وَجِهَادٍ فِی سَبِیلِهِ فَتَرَبَّصُوا حَتَّىٰ یَأْتِیَ اللَّهُ بِأَمْرِهِ ۗ وَاللَّهُ لَا یَهْدِی الْقَوْمَ الْفَاسِقِینَ
Say: If it be that your fathers, your sons, your brothers, your mates, or your kindred; the wealth that ye have gained; the commerce in which ye fear a decline: or the dwellings in which ye delight - are dearer to you than Allah, or His Messenger, or the striving in His cause;- then wait until Allah brings about His decision: and Allah guides not the rebellious.
وَلَوْ أَنَّ قُرْآنًا سُیِّرَتْ بِهِ الْجِبَالُ أَوْ قُطِّعَتْ بِهِ الْأَرْضُ أَوْ کُلِّمَ بِهِ الْمَوْتَىٰ ۗ بَل لِّلَّهِ الْأَمْرُ جَمِیعًا ۗ أَفَلَمْ یَیْأَسِ الَّذِینَ آمَنُوا أَن لَّوْ یَشَاءُ اللَّهُ لَهَدَى النَّاسَ جَمِیعًا ۗ وَلَا یَزَالُ الَّذِینَ کَفَرُوا تُصِیبُهُم بِمَا صَنَعُوا قَارِعَةٌ أَوْ تَحُلُّ قَرِیبًا مِّن دَارِهِمْ حَتَّىٰ یَأْتِیَ وَعْدُ اللَّهِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ لَا یُخْلِفُ الْمِیعَادَ
If there were a Qur´an with which mountains were moved, or the earth were cloven asunder, or the dead were made to speak, (this would be the one!) But, truly, the command is with Allah in all things! Do not the Believers know, that, had Allah (so) willed, He could have guided all mankind (to the right)? But the Unbelievers,- never will disaster cease to seize them for their (ill) deeds, or to settle close to their homes, until the promise of Allah come to pass, for, verily, Allah will not fail in His promise.
