Abu Qatada sacrifices his own sleep for The Messenger ﷺ. "I heard that the Christians who saw the companions conquered Ash-Shaam say, We swear by Allah (SWT) that as far as has reached us, these Companions (rala) are better than the Disciples (rala) of Christ (as)!" (Ibn Kathir). It's a must to love all of the Noble Companions (ra/a) equally and not love one less at the expense of another (ie such as those whose love for Hadrat Mu'aawiyah [ra] diminishes for his apparent opposing of Ameerul Mu'mineen Hadrat Alee [ra]) - however, of course, their ranks naturally will differ. Thus one must not say, for instance, "I love Hadrat Aboo Bakr (ra) more than any of the other Companions [ra/a]" but rather say, 'Hadrat Aboo Bakr (ra) is the most exalted of the Noble Companions [rala] -but I love them all equally.
