Question:
The last questioner asks, Shaykh Salih, about the Companions (may Allah be pleased with them). He says: Are they all of the same rank, or is there a distinction among them?
Answer:
There is no doubt that there is a distinction among them. The Companions of Badr are undoubtedly better than the others. The Emigrants are better than the Helpers. There is a distinction among them (may Allah be pleased with them). The Rightly Guided Caliphs and the ten promised Paradise are better than the others. Yes.
