Abu Hurairah - Shi'a View

Shi'a View

Shi'a tradition rejects the authenticity of Abu Hurairah's hadith, seldom accepting only when there are similar hadith narrated by Sahabah (companions) and family of Muhammad who are considered reliable by Shi'a.

    “On Hellespont guiltie of True-loves blood,
    In view and opposit two citties stood,
    Seaborders, disjoin’d by Neptunes might:
    The one Abydos, the other Sestos hight.”
