The Sahabas (RA) are the yardstick of Guidance , we would go astray if we don’t keep up on their Straight (With whom Allah Ta’la Himself is pleased).

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.
