Sahabism is an esoteric, spiritual form of Ahmadism. Sahabah in Majatran means "companions" and refers to the original followers of the Prophet Ahmad, followers of Sahabism are known as Sahabi's. Sahabism is divided into multiple orders which trace their linage back to different companions of the Prophet Ahmad and different beliefs but they adhere to the core tenants of Sahabism. Sahabism is considered to be the favorable branch of Ahmadism due to its secular and often peaceful nature, despite the fact that several orders have militarized themselves over the past several decades such as the Qusuri Order.
