Sahih al-Bukhari 3675 (Book 62, Hadith 25) #3508
The Righteousness of Four Companions

SUMMARY: The Prophet (ﷺ) climbed the mountain of Uhud with three companions and the mountain shook. He then said that it should remain firm as there were four righteous people on it.

Narrated Anas bin Malik: The Prophet once climbed the mountain of Uhud with Abu Bakr, 'Umar and 'Uthman. The mountain shook with them. The Prophet said (to the mountain), "Be firm, O Uhud! For on you there are no more than a Prophet, a Siddiq and two martyrs.
حَدَّثَنِي مُحَمَّدُ بْنُ بَشَّارٍ، حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى، عَنْ سَعِيدٍ، عَنْ قَتَادَةَ، أَنَّ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ حَدَّثَهُمْ أَنَّ النَّبِيَّ صَعِدَ أُحُدًا وَأَبُو بَكْرٍ وَعُمَرُ وَعُثْمَانُ فَرَجَفَ بِهِمْ فَقَالَ ‏ "‏ اثْبُتْ أُحُدُ فَإِنَّمَا عَلَيْكَ نَبِيٌّ وَصِدِّيقٌ وَشَهِيدَانِ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about the righteousness of four companions - Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, Abu Bakr Siddiq, Umar and Uthman. It was narrated by Anas bin Malik who was a companion of the Prophet ﷺ himself. In this hadith, when they climbed up to the mountain of Uhud together, it shook due to their presence and holiness. The Prophet ﷺ then said that it should remain firm as there were four righteous people on it - himself being a prophet and Abu Bakr Siddiq being a siddiq or truthful person while Umar and Uthman were martyrs in battle for Allah's cause. This hadith teaches us about truthfulness which is an important value in Islam as well as loyalty to Allah's cause even if one has to sacrifice their life for it. It also shows us how much respect these companions held in front of Allah SWT due to their righteousness which made even mountains shake at their presence!
