Disagreement between the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, and the Ruling on cursing Them

Question:

What is the position of Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah regarding the disagreements among the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them? And what is the ruling on cursing one of them?

Answer:

Ahlus-Sunnah wal-Jama'ah refrain from commenting on the disgreements between the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them. They say that each of them is a Mujtahid , and whichever of them reaches a correct decision, has two rewards, while whoever makes a mistake, has the reward of his Ijtihad and will be forgiven for his mistake. The virtue and praise of the Companions, may Allah be pleased with them, has been recorded in the Book (of Allah) and the Sunnah. This is why we consider them to be just and fair and invoke Allah's Pleasure upon them, and we absolve them of the claims of the Rafidhah who revile them, or curse some of them. For whoever reviles one of them, or claims it is permissible to curse one of them, is astray and a source of misguidance. We seek refuge with Allah from his position.
