Shi'a critique of the Sahaba

There is no standardized guideline of status according to the Shia school of thought; a Shia consensus cannot be established regarding a detailed list based on rank. However, there is a general consensus on an approximate view of each Sahaba. Most disagreements between the Shi'as sects start after Husayn ibn Ali's era. Shi'as can in general be expected to have a certain view on each Sahaba after having understood what relevant actions the specific Sahaba have accomplished during his or her life. Egyptian and Saudi Arabian Sunni scholars have in general different views on, for example, Muawiya ibn Abu Sufyan both are within the Sunni doctrines that claim the uprightness of all Sahaba.

The list of Sahaba includes events that are relevant for establishing a view, ranked accordingly to their general perceived status. The Ahl ul-Bayt are not included in this list, since the list revolves around them.
