Are the Mothers of the Believers better than all of the Companions, including the Four Rightly Guided Caliphs and Fatimah Az-Zahra, based on the status of their husbands in Paradise?

1 min readAlso available in العربية

The scholars hold that the four Caliphs are the best of the Companions, and the status of the Mothers of the Believers in Paradise will be exceptionally high, indeed, it will surpass the status of all creation. This is because the Mothers of the Believers will be with the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, in his rank, which is Al-Wasilah. This elevated status is due to the grace of Allah Almighty, who unites the wife with her husband and the offspring with their parents.
