Sunan Abi Dawud 4627 (Book 42, Hadith 32) #24918
Equality Among Companions

SUMMARY: The companions of the Prophet ﷺ used to not compare anyone with Abu Bakr, Umar and 'Uthman, and would leave the rest of the companions without treating any as superior to other.

Ibn 'Umar said: We used to say in the times of the Prophet : We do not compare anyone with Abu Bakr. ’Umar came next and then 'Uthman. We then would leave (rest of) the companions of the Prophet without treating any as superior to other.
حَدَّثَنَا عُثْمَانُ بْنُ أَبِي شَيْبَةَ، حَدَّثَنَا أَسْوَدُ بْنُ عَامِرٍ، حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ الْعَزِيزِ بْنُ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ، عَنْ نَافِعٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ عُمَرَ، قَالَ كُنَّا نَقُولُ فِي زَمَنِ النَّبِيِّ لاَ نَعْدِلُ بِأَبِي بَكْرٍ أَحَدًا ثُمَّ عُمَرَ ثُمَّ عُثْمَانَ ثُمَّ نَتْرُكُ أَصْحَابَ النَّبِيِّ لاَ تَفَاضُلَ بَيْنَهُمْ

EXPLANATIONS:
This hadith is about how the companions of Prophet Muhammad were equal in status. They did not compare anyone with Abu Bakr, Umar and 'Uthman but left all other companions without treating any as superior to others. This teaches us that we should treat everyone equally regardless of their social or economic status. We should respect each other's opinions and beliefs even if they are different from ours. We should also be humble and recognize that no one is better than another person just because they have a higher position or more money than us. Everyone has something valuable to offer in this world, so we must learn to appreciate each other's differences instead of trying to make ourselves seem better than others by comparing ourselves with them.
