ABU HURAYRAH
FATHER OF THE KITTEN

A long time ago in Medina most fair

a man named Abu Hurayrah once live there.
How did he get his name do you suppose -

'twas because of a kitten that curled up in his clothes!

Abu means father, and Hurayrah means kitten. Abu Hurayrah was one of the Prophet's closest
companions. He would go everywhere with the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him, and
memorize what he said and those sayings are called "Hadith". It is through Abu Hurayrah and
companions like him that we know a lot about what the Prophet, praise and peace be upon him,
taught and did.
