Major Personalities — Evidence Collection
Every hadith, athar and book passage in the books searched by, about and with seven Companions — sorted into clear categories, in the sources’ own words.
Only Sunni sources. Grades are the collections’ own. When only a bare name matches, the report is marked “name only”, because another man of the same name could be meant. Honouring all the Companions is part of the creed of Muslim scholars; this is a study aid, not a ruling, and nobody is ranked here.
