Question:
This is a question that says: May Allah reward you. Is it permissible to say that there was factionalism in the hearts of the Helpers and the Emigrants? What is the ruling on the one who says that there was factionalism in the hearts of the Companions?
Answer:
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sunan Abi Dawud 4658Sahih (Al-Albani) So no one reviles the Companions except a misguided one, or a misguided one who misguides others, or one who follows a misguided person.
The Companions have their right:[Al-Fath 48:29] [Al-Fath 48:29] This is the description of the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them). Who speaks ill of them? Only the hypocrites, or the Shi'ah who revile the Companions or declare them disbelievers. These people are of no account.
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was reviled. It was said of him: "He is a sorcerer," "He is a fortune-teller," "He is a madman," and other things were said about the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Did that harm him? Did he conceal this speech? Did he conceal the truth that the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) came with? Or did these statements return upon their speakers, praise be to Allah? Yes.

Answer:
The Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) said:
Do not insult my Companions.
لا تسبوا أصحابي.by him in whose hand my soul is, if one of you contributed the amount of gold equivalent to Uhud, it would not amount to as much as the mudd of one of them, or half of it.
والذي نفسي بيده لو أنفق أحدكم مثل أحد ذهبا ما بلغ مد أحدهم ولا نصيفهThe Companions have their right:
Muhammad is the Messenger of Allah
مُّحَمَّدٌ رَّسُولُ اللَّهِand those with him are forceful against the disbelievers, merciful among themselves. You see them bowing and prostrating [in prayer], seeking bounty from Allah and [His] pleasure. Their mark is on their faces from the trace of prostration
وَالَّذِينَ مَعَهُ أَشِدَّاءُ عَلَى الْكُفَّارِ رُحَمَاءُ بَيْنَهُمْ تَرَاهُمْ رُكَّعًا سُجَّدًا يَبْتَغُونَ فَضْلًا مِّنَ اللَّهِ وَرِضْوَانًا سِيمَاهُمْ فِي وُجُوهِهِم مِّنْ أَثَرِ السُّجُودِThe Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him) was reviled. It was said of him: "He is a sorcerer," "He is a fortune-teller," "He is a madman," and other things were said about the Messenger (peace and blessings be upon him). Did that harm him?
