An sani cewa Abu Huraira ne ya tattara mafi yawan hadisai, kuma an rubuta su. Imam Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr ya ruwaito daga Hasan ibn ‘Amr, wanda ya ce:

It is known that Abu Huraira recorded the largest collection of Ahadith, which was also documented. Imam Ibn ‘Abd al-Barr narrates on the authority of Hasan ibn ‘Amr, who says:

Na ruwaito wani hadisi ga Abū Huraira, amma ya ƙi karɓarsa. Sai na ce: "Ni dai na ji wannan hadisi daga gare ka."

I narrated a hadīth to Abñ Huraira but he rejected it. I said, “I have heard this hadīth from you.”.

Ya ce, "Idan ka ji wannan hadisi daga wurina, to dole ne in rubuta shi." Ya rike hannuna ya kai ni dakinsa. Ya nuna mini dakin littattafansa wadanda suka kunshi riwayoyinsa daga Manzon Allah ﷺ. Ya sami hadisin da na riwaito a cikin littattafan. Bayan haka, Abu Huraira ya ce mini, .

He said, “If you have heard this hadīth from me, then I must have it written down.” He held my hand and took me to his room. He showed me his library of books that comprised of his narrations from the Blessed Prophet (PBUH). He found the hadīth I had narrated in the books. After that, Abñ Huraira said to me, .

"Ashe ban gaya muku cewa idan na ba ku wani hadisi, dole ne a rubuta shi?"35.

“Did I not tell you that if I narrated any hadīth to you I must have it written down?”35.

Hafiz ibn Hajar ya kuma ruwaito wannan hadisi a cikin littafinsa, Fathul Bari, ta wata sanadi daban. Wannan lamari ya tabbatar da cewa Abu Huraira bai rubuta wasu ’yan hadisai kawai ba, a’a, ya rubuta dukkan hadisan da daga bisani suka zama ginshiƙin littattafan hadisinsa.

Hafiz ibn Hajar has also narrated this hadīth in his book, Fatú al- Bari, with another chain. This incident proves that Abu Huraira did not document only a few aúódõth, but in fact all the ahadith which eventually became his store of hadīth books.

Amma wannan hanyar adanawa ba ta tsaya nan ba. Ko almajiransa sun rubuta hadisan da suka ji daga gare shi. Wani almajiri mai suna Bashir ibn Nuhaiq ya rubuta:

However this method of preservation does not stop here. Even his students wrote the aúódõth they heard from him. One student named Bashir ibn Nuhaiq wrote:

Na rubuta duk hadisan da na ji daga Abu Huraira. Lokacin da na yanke shawarar tashi, sai na karanta dukkan hadisan da ya ruwaito mini a gabansa. Sannan na tambaya, "Shin waɗannan su ne dukkan hadisan da ka ruwaito mini?"

I wrote down whatever aúódõth I heard from Abu Huraira. When I decided to leave, I read all the aúódõth he narrated to me by his side. Then I asked, “Are these all the aúódõth you narrated to me?”.

Ya amsa da cewa, "Eh."36

He replied, “Yes.”36
