[5]. A generous person will prosper; whoever helps others will be helped. Muhammad God's messenger (ﷺ) said, “Whoever relieves the hardship of a believer in this world, Allāh will relieve his hardship on the Day of Resurrection. Whoever helps ease one in difficulty, Allāh will make it easy for him in this world and the Hereafter. Whoever conceals the faults of a believer, Allāh will conceal his faults in this world and the Hereafter. Allāh helps the servant as long as he helps his brother. Whoever travels a path in search of knowledge, Allāh will make easy for him a path to Paradise. People do not gather in the houses of Allāh, reciting the Book of Allāh, the Qur’an, and studying it together, but that tranquility will descend upon them, mercy will cover them, angels will surround them, and Allāh will mention them to those near Him. And whoever is slow to good deeds will not be hastened by his lineage.”
[6]. Abu Bakr was first to accept Islam and the nobles of Quraysh embraced Islam at his hands. He is at the forefront of those who spent in the way of Allāh and he is also the first to withstand the persecution of non-Muslims.
All the noble Companions of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ are fragrant flowers in the garden of the Prophet . Each flower has its own captivating fragrance. While all the Companions possess lofty and elevated ranks, Allāh Almighty, in His divine wisdom, has granted some superiority over others, and bestowed some with exclusive virtues and qualities. One of these great personalities is the third Caliph of Islam, Uthmān bin 'Affān رَضِىَ الـلّٰـهُ عَـنْهُ.
the Prophet’s Friend, the third of the four Rightly-Guided Successors of the Prophet and third of the Ten promised Paradise. He is named Dhu al-Nûrayn or “Possessing Two Lights,” a reference to his marriage with two daughters of the Prophet, Ruqayya then Umm Kulthum. He is among those who emigrated twice: once to Abyssinia, and again to Madina. He gathered together the Qur’an which he had read in its entirety before the Prophet. During his tenure as Caliph, Armenia, Caucasia, Khurasan, Kirman, Sijistan, Cyprus, and much of North Africa were added to the dominions of Islam.
`Uthman was wealthy and generous. When he heard the Prophet ﷺ say, 'Whoever will (buy and) dig the well of Ruma for the people will be granted Paradise,' then Othman bin Affan (bought and) dug it. And in another occasion the Prophet ﷺ said, “Whoever equips the army of al-`Usra, Paradise is for him,” he brought the Prophet a thousand gold dinars which he poured into his lap. The Prophet ﷺ picked them up with his hand and said repeatedly: “Nothing shall harm `Uthman after what he did today.”
The Prophet ﷺ also said: “The most compassionate of my Community towards my Community is Abu Bakr; the staunchest in Allah’s Religion is `Umar; and the most truthful in his modesty is `Uthman and the best among my companions in judgment is Ali bin Abi Talib رضي الله عنهم .
