Abu Hurairah - Memory of the Age of Revelation
It is true that a person's intelligence is counted on him...
and those with extraordinary talents often pay the price at the same time they should have received reward and gratitude...!! The great companion Abu Hurairah is one of these.
He had an extraordinary talent in the breadth and strength of his memory. He, may God be pleased with him, was good at the art of listening, and his memory was good at the art of memorizing and storing.
He heard and became aware, then he memorized, and then he hardly forgot a word or a letter of what he was aware of.
No matter how long life passes, or how many days pass..!! For this reason, his talent prepared him to be the one among the companions of the Messenger, may God bless him and grant him peace, who memorized his hadiths the most, and therefore the most narrated of them.
When the era of the hypocrites came, who specialized in lying about the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, they took Abu Hurairah as a target, taking the worst advantage of his wide reputation in narrating the Messenger of God, may God bless him and grant him peace, a subject of suspicion and questioning.
