This quiz, Companions of the Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) looks at Sahaba.
The most widely accepted definition of a companion of Prophet Muhammad (PBUH) is someone who saw the Prophet and believed in him as well as died a Muslim. The Arabic translation of the word companion is Sahabi, thus companions (plural) become Sahaba.
The companions are considered the best generation of the Islamic nation, both then and now. We learn about their etiquettes and manners, we read their stories and marvel at their exploits; we admire their religious zeal and their utter devotion to Allah and His Messenger. The companions came from all different walks of life exactly as you would find in a small town today.
