Sahaba In Arabic ((hot)) (2025)

The Quran uses derivatives of the same root to emphasize the excellence of companionship. For example, God describes Prophet Muhammad as a mercy to the worlds, and the early believers are commanded to "be with the truthful" ( kunu ma‘a al-sadiqin – Quran 9:119). The root appears in the command sahibhum (accompany them) in the verse on treating parents kindly (Quran 31:15), showing that suhba (companionship) carries ethical weight.

From this root, the noun Sahib (صاحب) is formed, meaning a companion, friend, or associate. The feminine form is Sahibah (صاحبة). The plural Ashab (أصحاب) is also common in the Quran, often used to describe the followers of prophets (e.g., Ashab al-Kahf – the Companions of the Cave). However, the specific plural Sahaba (الصحابة) became the technical term for the companions of the Prophet Muhammad. sahaba in arabic
