Companions رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهُم. If a person loves some Companions and harbours hatred toward others, then he is in grave error.

May Allah Almighty grant us true love and reverence for all the Noble Companions and the Ahl al-Bayt رَضِیَ اللهُ عَنْهُم, bless us with steadfastness upon this love, and grant us death in this state of devotion, under the Green Dome in the presence of the Beloved صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم, burial in Jannat al-Baqi‘, and neighbourhood  of the Beloved Prophet صَلَّى اللهُ عَلَيْهِ وَاٰلِهٖ وَسَلَّم and his beloved ones in Jannat al-Firdaws.

اٰمِیْنْ بِجَاہِ خاتَمِ النَّبِیّٖن صلَّی اللہُ عَلَیْہ ِوَاٰلِہٖ وَسَلَّمَ

For example:

1. Sayyiduna Ali رَضِىَ اللّٰهُ عَـنْهُ was an unmatched scholar of religion, to the extent that he is called Bab-ul-Ilm (the Gate of Knowledge). We too should strive to acquire religious knowledge. اِنْ شَــآءَالـلّٰـه, admissions to Jamia-tul-Madinah begin in Shawwal.
