What this part covers
machinesummary, machine-writtenNo report on the return is beyond question: about eighty percent come through Abu Hurayra and about half through one narrator, none from Abu Bakr, Umar or Ali; the series will continue.
In more detail
Mufti Abu Layth asks how one cannot question such reports when they go against reason, and says there is more to cover than time allows. He challenges anyone to bring one unquestionable hadith on the return with nothing in its chain to question, and says eighty percent of these hadith come through Abu Hurayra alone and almost fifty percent through one man, Ibn Shihab al-Zuhri [?], while the other companions cited are not the well-known ones: nothing comes from Abu Bakr, Umar or Ali, the report of Umar being told by rabbis of their belief is not Umar relating it from the Prophet, and companions such as al-Nawwas ibn Sam'an are rarely heard of, with problematic chains. He asks how what is meant to be the greatest event in history could be transmitted only this way, and says he will continue the series Disclosure with a big D over the coming weeks because Qadhi gave half truths. After a joke about a chat comment on his impression of the slave girl, he says the show has run long and decides to cover the Mohammed Hijab story quickly.

the throne of god and these slave girls who are sitting as mad [Laughter] i mean how does this stuff seriously how is this not questionable if if it goes against reason so this is my point that when you have these beliefs that look uh that you know all these things and i will go through the rest of this as well
but just it's taken you see it takes so long this is the problem i will show you guys there's no such they say that there's a bring me one unquestionable hadith just one to prove this that there's no question about anything in its chain you know eighty percent of these entire hadith are just through abu hurairah just through him and almost 50 percent of the entire narration is just through one man ibn sheikh abzuri the other companions that they're quoting are not these reliable companions like i suppose they've got this root saying oh the sperm is going to
come down and stuff that's nonsense transmitted by that guy who's got his slave girl checking the and one narration from aisha where abu because he had a hard time this behind now that the gel is going to come out of us behind there are no way is abu bakr where is umar where is uh where is ali now they might say oh there's a narration where umar is being told by the rabbis that we believe in this but umar himself is not saying the prophet said it we come on this is what meant to be the greatest thing in history that's ever meant to happen how has it not been transmitted except
through on you know like nawaz ibn saman now you don't commonly hear of this companion you don't commonly these companions that they're gonna quote you don't hear of them so and then their chains are problematized also so yeah just to be clear there is so much to go on in this and what i will continue to do is over the weeks i will call it i will call this disclosure with a big d because what ya
