Aṣ-ṣaḥābah (Arabic: اَلصَّحَابَةُ, "The Companions") were the Muslim companions of the Islamic prophet Muhammad who had seen or met him, believed in him at the time when he was alive and they also died as Muslims. The exact number of the Prophet Muhammad's companions is not known due to their dispersal across various regions and the lack of a comprehensive record during his lifetime. Estimates suggest over 100,000 companions, with some sources like Abu Zur'ah al-Razi and Al-Suyuti suggesting around 124,000.^[1] The Companions mentioned in this article are among the best known of all the Prophet Muhammad's companions, but there are many more Sahaba than those listed here.

While all the Sahabah are very important in the Islamic faith, the most notable and important are the ten who were promised paradise by the Prophet Muhammad: Abu Bakr, Umar, Uthman, Ali, Talhah, Zubair, Abd al-Rahman ibn Awf, Sa'd ibn Abi Waqqas, Sa`îd ibn Zayd, and Abu Ubaidah ibn al-Jarrah.^[2]
