Q# 4. Around 70% of ‘Ahadīth’ being the ‘narrative’ of Hazrat Abu Hurairah quoted in Sahih al-Bukhari, Sahih Muslim, etc. Could that be possible when Hazrat Abu Hurairah (603 – 681 CE) coming from Banu Daws tribe of Tihamah on the coast of the Red Sea: (a) became a Muslim in 6th or 7th year of Hijrah, (b) was not one of the closest companions of His Holiness Mohammad-ur-Rasool-ul-Allah SAWST, (c) was close to the Umayyad oligarchs due to political reasons, and (d) according to the Richard Gottheil and Hartwig Hirschfeld, Abu Hurairah was one of the close disciples of Ka’ab al-Ahbar [refer to “KA’B AL-AḤBAR – JewishEncyclopedia.com”]?
