YOUR FATHER HURAYRA giving a lesson on how to intelectualize

Submitted by HARRAK (Canada), Mar 2, 2006 at 19:36

..Now Mullatos are giving native Muslims lessons on Islam....look at that copy and paste geeks! Listen both Abdullah and Apostate! Regardless of the NAQL and Makhtoot (inherited texts) dialogue methodology which I may master better than you, I will this time train your brains how to sometimes use your mind in things where the text is not neccesarily needed.

Among the things where one do not need the text to determine the authenticity we have in the surface the figure of ABU HURAYRA ( or the father of the little cat). I do not need to study the SILSLA (Chain of naration) , the 3AN3ANA (the namely naration) and TOROK (paths the naration comes from) to check what ever comes from this man. I tell you why he is not authentic to begin with.

1- His name!! who is he? the father of the little cat! historians differed sharply on determining him and his father as well as his tribe of origin..the only thing that is sure is that he is Yamani from yemen and is -antropologically- from the NON-SEMITE ARABS known as Bani Qahtan. So here how can I trust who I do not know.

2- His social profile and behavior.

a- he stayed unmarried 90% of his life. I have no doubt that he was good at fantasy and that could have affected his narrations.

b- he was very close to the rulers of his time and even died in their palace, while he was very poor at time of prophet Muhamad, so again, his hadiths or narrations praising those rulers is no coincidence.

c- he is known to have narrated 3000 aprx tradition while not living close to where Muhamad lived more than 2 years?? too exagerated in the eyes of all Historians (Islamicate) and not only that, he said that he only narrated half of what he knows..is not he a phenomenon?

Finally, when a man fantasizes all his life and suddenly get rich and narrate stupid things like the rats are a cursed nation and the cow that spoken fluently Arabic before him..that is to me just stupid be it in Bukhari or Kafi or even in the American constitution..

Let me know if you want some quotes..Hurayrists
Later,
