Dr Muhammad Tahir-ul-Qadri, the founding leader and patron-in-chief of Minhaj-ul-Quran International (MQI) has said that the companions of the Holy Prophet (SAW) were bound in an unbreakable bond of mutual love and brotherhood. He said that these great personages had the honour of being under direct tutelage and training of the Holy Prophet (SAW). He said that the great Prophet (SAW) himself shaped their character and built their personalities, adding that it is for this reason that wisdom was their defining attribute. He said that the spirit of sacrifice enveloped their personalities with the result that the companions could never come out of influence of brotherhood formed by the Holy Prophet (SAW).
