The Prophet said, "I am security for my Companions." It has been said that this means against innovation whilst others are of the opinion that it means against disagreement and disorder. Another scholar said that the meaning of this quotation is that the Messenger was during his life time, the greatest guarantee of safety and he will be present as long as his way is followed but upon its abandonment affliction and disorder can be expected.
In chapter 33, "The Confederates" there is a verse in which Allah Himself makes clear the value of His Prophet He says "Allah, and His angels praise and venerate the Prophet. Believers, praise and venerate him and pronounce peace upon him in abundance" (33:56). Note how Allah begins the verse by referring to Himself first in the praise and veneration of Prophet Muhammad, then Allah makes it known that the angels do the same. Finally, one becomes aware of the order that there is an obligation upon all believers to ask Allah to praise and venerate our beloved Prophet .
The saying of the Prophet "The coolness of my eye is in the prayer" was explained to Abu Bakr, Furak's son to mean, the praise of Allah, then that of His angels followed by the response to the obligation of his nation up until the Day of Resurrection. Abu Bakr, went on to explain that the praise of the angels is forgiveness, and the praise of his nation is the supplication upon him and the mercy of Allah towards him.
It has also been said that "believers, praise" the Prophet who taught his Companions the supplication of praising upon himself. Allah made a distinction between the Arabic words "salat" meaning praying to Allah, by bowing and prostrating and "salat" meaning praising the Prophet and the blessing of the Prophet.
Allah also says, "But if you support one another against him, (know that) Allah is his Guardian and Gabriel, and the righteous among the believers" (66:4). The explanation of the phrase, "righteous among the believers" is that it refers to the prophets, angels, Abu Bakr, Omar, Othman and Ali and the rest of the believers

Allah commences the Chapter "The Opening" with the verses, "Indeed, We have opened for you (Prophet Muhammad) a clear opening that, Allah forgives your past, and future sins, and completes His Favor to you, and guides you on a Straight Path, and that Allah helps you with a mighty help. It was He who sent down tranquility into the hearts of the believers so that they might add belief upon belief. To Allah belong the armies of the heavens and the earth. Allah is the Knower, the Wise. (From His Wisdom) He admits the believers, both men and women, into Gardens underneath which rivers flow, there to live for ever, and acquit them of their sins – that with Allah is a mighty triumph – and that
