## Summary

Abū Hurayra ʿAbd al-Raḥmān ibn Ṣakhr al-Dawsī al-Zahrānī, commonly known as Abu Hurayra, was a companion of the Islamic prophet Muhammad and considered the most prolific hadith narrator. Born in al-Jabur, Arabia to the Banu Daws clan of the Zahran tribe, he converted to Islam around 7 AH following the Battle of Khaybar, and later became a member of the Suffah after migrating to Medina.
