This religion did not reach us on a plate of gold, but rather on a plate of hardship! It reached us through the bodies of the companions pierced by spears and cut by swords! It reached us through a river of their blood and mountains of their limbs! It reached us through their wealth, their sacrifices, their struggles, and their steadfastness! These are three hundred messages from the companions, chosen to encompass all aspects of life including relationships, transactions, love, marriage, family, neighbors, work, and companionship. They are tied to reality and revealed for practical application. Time and place did not reform these companions; rather, they are the ones who reformed time and place.
