Most Muslims regard anyone who knew or saw Muhammad, believed in his teachings, and died as a Muslim to be a Companion or Ṣahābi. Lists of prominent Companions usually run to fifty or sixty names, being the people most closely associated with Muhammad. However, there were clearly many others who had some contact with the prophet. Many of them were identified by later scholars, and their names and biographies were recorded in religious reference texts such as Muhammad ibn Sa'd's early Kitāb at-Tabāqat al-Kabīr. A list of the best-known companions can be f ...

Some Muslims assert that there were more than one hundred thousand Companions. They do so in relation to the hadith known as Ghadir Khumm, regarding a sermon Muhammad is said to have delivered after making his last pilgrimage, or Hajj, to Mecca. Shi'a Muslims believe that there were more than 100,000 witnesses to this sermon, which would emphasize the gravity and official nature of this alleged speech appointing Ali ibn Abi Talib as Muhammad's successor. Some Sunni sources accept the hadith, but do not interpret it as do the Shi'a. Some Sunni source ...

Soon after Muhammad's death the Muslim community, the ummah, was riven by conflicts over leadership. Companions took sides in the conflicts – or were forced to take sides – and later scholars considered their allegiances in weighing their testimony. The two largest Muslim denominations, the Shia and Sunni take very different approaches in weighing the value of the companions' testimony. Sahaba - Sunni views. See also:

Because the hadith were not written down until many years after the death of Muhammad, the isnads, or chains of transmission, always have several links. The first link is preferably a Companion, who had direct contact with Muhammad. The Companion then related the tradition to a taba'een, the companion of the Companion. Taba'een had no direct contact with Muhammad, but did have direct contact with the sahaabi. The tradition then would have been pa ...

Shia view of the Sahaba - Ahl al-Bayt. While Sunni accept the testimony of all Sahaba as a authenticated part of the chain of narrators in a hadith, without scrutinizing them, Shia do that only for the Ahl al-Bayt. This is due to that Shia believes them to be thoroughly cleansed from all sin, as described in hadith of the Cloak. Others are scrutinizied for reliability.
