Is there a reference that mentions the names of the 1,400 Companions who pledged allegiance in the Pledge of Ridwan?
Source: FtawySummary from Ftawy's records · added here Sep 2, 2026
The Pledge of Ridwan was witnessed by 1,400 or 1,500 Companions. The way to reconcile this discrepancy is that they were more than 1,400. So, whoever said 1,500 rounded up the fraction, and whoever said 1,400 disregarded it. Regarding their virtue, the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, said: "None who pledged allegiance under the tree shall enter the Fire." The names of all the Companions who witnessed the pledge were not mentioned, but some of them were, such as Abu Bakr, Umar, Ali, Jabir ibn Abdullah, Ibn Umar, and Umm Salamah.
