These ten noble companions are known as the Ashra Mubashsharah (العشرة المبشرون بالجنة) because the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ personally declared them among those promised Paradise, as mentioned in various authentic Hadiths (e.g., Sunan al-Tirmidhi, Musnad Ahmad). They are honored not only for their deep faith but also for their exemplary character, sacrifices, and unwavering dedication to Islam.
