Per our erstwhile ISIS propagandist ShamiWitness...
"Sahaba" - The companions of Mohamed
"Ansar" - The "Helpers" that helped Mohamed and his companions escape Medina and waged war on behalf of Islam.
"mushrikeen" - Generally, "polytheists" or people who worship more than one god. In ibn Malik's story, it applies to the Persians who were not yet conquered or practicing Islam. This word is also used to apply to Jews and Christians. Jews because of their Talmudic practices which Islam insists is tantamount to polytheism and Christians because the Holy Trinity, Father, Son & Holy Ghost, the deification of Christ, is considered polytheist despite belief in a monotheist "God". Sometimes also used to refer to modern Shia because they worship pray to or worship saints.
Ever wondered why so many jihadi "martyrdom brigades" are named after Bara ibn Malik ? (1)
Bara ibn Maliki al Ansari: Not coz he was just known for his bravery, but in battlefield he fought so daringly, so ferociously,.. (2)
... and not for victory,but for martyrdom.(3)
In single-handed combat he defeated,killed many opponents and in the thick of battle he was an outstanding fighter against the mushrikeen(4)
Al-Bara' ibn Malik
