This does not imply a Criticsm of the Companions

 These ahadith do not imply a criticism of the noble Companions; rather, its meaning is that those who will be turned back from the Cistern are those who apostatized from Islam during the reign of Abu Bakr; after the death of the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam and Abu Bakr fought them and they died upon disbelief.

It is well-known to every believer that none of the noble Companions apostatized from the religion and it was only some people from among the uncouth and ignorant Bedouins who did not assist the religion, nor associate with the Prophet, nor sit in his circle for any appreciable length of time, nor seek knowledge, nor memorize the hadith that apostatized from Islam.

More so, those who the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam will see, regonise and assume to be from his Companions are actually the hypocrites such as abdullah ibn Ubayy ibn Salul and others who hid their disbelief and feigned Islam and Allah is All-Aware of their secrets.

Salvation

 None will be saved on the Day of Resurrection except he who used to worship alah alone with Whom there is no associate. As for the other gods, they will lead their adherents into the Fire.

Voluntary Fasting

 Fasting is one of the major acts of worship with which Allah redeems the fasting person from the Fire. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´Fasting is a shield against the Fire (of Hell) just like the shield one of you would use during fighting.´´80 The supererogatory fasting has its virtue. The Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam said: ´´He who observes fast for a day in the path of Allah, He will remove his face from the Hell due to (the fast of) that day to the extent of seventy years.´ distance.´´81 The phrase ´in the path of Allah´ could either mean fasting a day sincerely, intending the pleasure of Allah; or fasting in the course of a military expedition in the path of Allah.

Backbiter and Tale-Bearer

 A backbiter is the individual who indugles in backiting which involves mentioning about your brother that which he would detest. The tale-bearer is the person who varries bad tale among the people in order to cause disaffection among them. These sins cause pervading tribulations, and enormous corruption also stems from them. Their perpetrators are among the worst of people and due to their capricious tongue, they speak as dictated by their whims and desires.  Their situation at the time of resurrection will be appalling as the Prophet salla alayhi wa sallam mentioned, Whoever eats the flesh of his brother in the world (i.e. bacjbites), he will be presented to him on the Day of Resurrection and it will be said to him, Eat his dead as you have eaten him alive. He would eat him and he would scowl and scream.
