In a famous Hadith, the Prophet (PBUH) said regarding the people of Badr:
“Perhaps Allah has looked at the people of Badr and said, ‘Do whatever you like, for I have forgiven you.’” (Bukhari & Muslim)

This shows the unmatched spiritual rank of the Badr companions. Their bravery, faith, and sacrifice were deeply honored by Allah (SWT) and His Messenger (PBUH).
