Etiquette with the Companions
Seeking forgiveness for them
"And those who came after them say: Our Lord, forgive us and our brothers who preceded us in faith and put not in our hearts [any] resentment toward those who have believed."
Reference: Qur'an, Surah Al-Hashr 59:10
Explanation
Later generations are taught to pray for the earliest believers rather than harbor any ill feeling toward them.
