Salaam everyone,

In the Noble Qur'an, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala says:--


"YE ARE THE BEST OF PEOPLES, EVOLVED FOR MANKIND, ENJOINING
WHAT IS RIGHT, FORBIDDING WHAT IS WRONG, AND BELIEVING IN
ALLAH...." (3:110)



"THE VANGUARD [Of Islam]-THE FIRST OF THOSE WHO FORSOOK
[Their homes/the Muhajjurun] AND OF THOSE WHO GAVE THEM
AID [The Ansar], AND ALSO THOSE WHO FOLLOW THEM IN [all]
GOOD DEEDS- WELL PLEASED IS ALLAH WITH THIEM, AS ARE THEY
WITH HIM.." (9:100)

In many other places in the Holy Qur'an, Allah Subhanahu Wa Ta'ala, praises and shows His Pleasure for the Companions of Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him. Their behaviour and actions were witnessed by the Prophet himself, peace be upon him, and approved by him.... meaning that their behaviour was also approved by Allah, Most High, as it is an acceptable principle that the Prophet, peace be upon him, is not allowed to approve of something which is essentially wrong. So, we must emulate them in our behaviour, actions, particularly minding:--

1) That any action we take is correct in accordance with the Shari'a and Sunnah.

2) To remember and think about death often, as this helps in detaching ourselves to worldly pleasures.

3) Learning to forgive others who may have offended us in Ma'amalat.

4) We should have high respect for all Muslims and desire good for them, noting that every Muslim is inviolable to another Muslim-his blood,
wealth and honour.

5) Performance of the late night prayer (Tahajjud), as the Master, Sallallahu alaihi Wasallam, said:-

"STICK TO THE LATE-NIGHT PRAYER FOR IT WAS THE CUSTOM OF THE PIOUS PEOPLE BEFORE YOU,
IT IS ALSO A MEANS OF GETTING CLOSER TO YOUR LORD; IT WIPES AWAY YOUR EVIL DEEDS, AND
KEEPS ONE FROM COMMITTING SINS". [Ahmad, Tirmidhi, al-Hakim and others. al-Jami as-Saghir, Vol.2 Hadith No. 4079].
