Umar beat Abu Huraira for narrating hadith excessively
Sunni Brothers says that the Shia falsly reject him, there is proof that the Sunni reject him to.
The first man who was unkind to him was the second Caliph, Umar Bin Khattab. Ibn Athir and Ibn Abi'l-Hadid in his Sharhe-Nahju'l-Balagha, Volume III, page 104 (printed in Egypt), and several others have reported that after Caliph Umar appointed Abu Huraira governor of Bahrain in 21 A.H., the people informed the Caliph that Abu Huraira had amassed great wealth and had purchased many horses. Umar therefore deposed him in 23 A.H. As soon as Abu Huraira entered the court, the Caliph said: "O enemy of Allah and enemy of His Book! Have you stolen Allah's property?" He replied, "I never committed theft, but the people have given me gifts."
Ibn Sa'ad in Tabaqat, Volume IV, page 90, Ibn Hajar Asqalani in Isaba, and Ibn Abd-e-Rabbih in Iqdu'l-Farid, Volume I, write that the Caliph said: "'When I made you the governor of Bahrain, you had not even shoes on your feet, but now I have heard that you have purchased horses for 1,600 dinars. How did you acquire this wealth?' He replied, 'These were men's gifts which profit has multiplied much.' The Caliph's face grew red with anger, and he lashed him so violently that his back bled. Then he ordered the 10,000 dinars which Abu Huraira had collected in Bahrain be taken from him and deposited in the account of the Baitu'-Mal."
This was not the first time that Umar beat Abu Huraira. Muslim writes in his Sahih, Volume I, page 34, that during the time of the Prophet, Umar Bin Khattab beat Abu Huraira so severely that the latter fell down on the ground.

SIAPAKAH ABU HURAIRAH MENURUT ALI IBN ABI THALIB, IBNU UMAR,, AISYAH, DAN BEBERAPA PERAWI HADIST SHAHIH LAINNYA???
Abu Hurairah banyak meriwayatkan hadishadis
isra’iliyat, seperti Adam yang diciptakan seperti bentuk Allah, setan
lari sambil kentut mendengar suara azan, Nabi Sulaiman yang mengancam
akan membelah bayi yang diperebutkan dua orang ibu, Allah menaruh
kakinya ke neraka, Nabi Sulaiman yang meniduri tujuh puluh wanita dalam
semalam tapi hanya melahirkan seorang bayi separuh manusia, Nabi yang
membakar sarang semut karena digigit seekor semut dll.
bagaimana komentar mereka terhadap Abu Hurairah, berikut sebagian yang terekam dikitab-kitab shahih ahlussunnah:
Ali
bin Abi Thalib dan Abu Hurairah Tatkala Ali bin Abi Thalib mendengar
Abu Hurairah berkata tentang Rasul Allah: ‘Telah bersabda sahabatku’,
‘Telah menyampaikan kepadaku sahabatku’, ‘Aku melihat sahabatku’, Ali
berkata: ‘Sejak kapan (Rasul Allah saw menjadi sahabatmu) ya Abu
Hurairah? (1)
Ali bin Abi Thalib menyebut Abu Hurairah adDausi ini sebagai pembohong yang paling berat dari umat ini (akdzabu annas).
Pada kesempatan lain Ali berkata: ‘Di antara orang hidup yang paling
membohongi Rasul Allah adalah Abu Hurairah adDausi. Ali juga menamakan
Ka’b alAhbar sebagai pembohong. (2)
Aisyah dan Abu Hurairah
Ibnu
Qutaibah melukiskan hubungan Aisyah dengan Abu Hurairah: ‘Engkau
menyampaikan hadis yang tidak kudengar dari Nabi saw’. Demikianlah
katakata Aisyah yang ditujukan kepada Abu Hurairah. Abu Hurairah
menjawab dengan jawaban yang tidak beradab dan tanpa hormat, seperti
diriwayatkan oleh Bukhari, Ibnu Sa’d, Ibnu Katsir dan lainlain: ‘Engkau
(terlalu) sibuk dengan cermin dan tempat celak!’. Dan di bagian lain ia
berkata kepada Aisyah: ‘Aku tidak disibukkan oleh cermin dan tempat
celak serta pewarna, tetapi aku melihat Anda demikian’. Dan diriwayatkan
oleh Dzahabi bahwa Aisyah berkata kepada Abu Hurairah: ‘Keterlaluan Abu
Hurairah, berlebihan yang engkau sampaikan tentang Rasul Allah!’. Dan
Abu Hurairah menjawab: ‘Aku tidak disibukkan oleh cermin dan tidak oleh
tempat celak dan tidak juga dengan alat pemoles (yang menjauhkan aku
dari Rasul Allah)!’
Who is Abu Hurairah?
According to Sunni traditions, his great knowledge came from the Prophet himself: "The Prophet began to ladle knowledge with his hands and put it into the garment saying to Abu Hurayra: “Join it to your chest.” Abu Hurairah joined it to his chest and became infallible from forgetting; therefore he was the best of companions in keeping Sunna in mind and the most aware of it." Having become infallible from forgetting ahadith, he then went onto narrate thousands of sayings from the Prophet.
I want to look at a few examples of these apparent infallible ahadiths and ask whether they appear to make much sense, let alone whether the Holy Prophet could have narrated such sayings. To begin with, the Holy Prophet apparently narrated several ahadith about Prophet Moses. Various Sunni books quote Abu Hurairah talking about Prophet Moses:
The Angel of Death used to come to people visibly, but when he came to Prophet Moses to take his life, Moses slapped him, gouged his eye, and sent him back to God one-eyed. After this accident, the angel of death went to people invisibly!
Another wonder of Abu Hurairah's was the competition between Moses and the rock. Moses put his cloths on the rock to swim in the sea away from people. The rock ran away with Moses' cloths in order to force him to follow it nakedly as he was born in front of the Israelites in order to refute the rumor saying that Moses had a hernia. Moses ran after the rock shouting: “O, rock, my cloths. O rock, my cloths.” The rock stopped after ending its task. Moses began beating the rock with his stick severely until he made some scars in the rock.
And another one about an ant that pinched prophet Moses. Moses ordered his followers to burn the village of the ants. Then Allah inspired to him: “Because of an ant that pinched you, you burnt a nation, which pleased Allah!”
Another tradition, this time about Prophet Solomon who said: “I will go to bed with a hundred women tonight that every one of them will give birth to a boy, who will fight for the sake of Allah.” The angel asked him to say inshallah. He did not say. So no one of his wives gave birth to a baby save one, who gave birth to half a human being!

Abu Hurayra's tradition contradicted the Noble Quran
He narrated that the Prophet had said: "No one will be entered Paradise by his deeds." They said: "Nor you, messenger of Allah." He said: "Nor I." 1
This tradition was to be thrown away because it contradicted the holy Qur'an. Allah said: (Surely this is a reward for you, and your striving shall be recompensed) 76:22 (Quran).
1. Al-Bukhari's Sahih, vol. 4, p.p. 6.
Abu Hurayra said :Prophet Mohammad (s.a.w) was not better than Yunus(i.e.Jonah)!!!
Sahih Bukhari ,Volume 4 : Book 55 : Hadith 624 :
Narrated by 'Abdullah:
"The Prophet said, "None of you should say that I am better than Yunus (i.e. Jonah)." Musadded added, "Jonah bin Matta." "
Sahih Bukhari,Volume 4 : Book 55 : Hadith 626 :
Narrated by Abu Huraira:
"Once while a Jew was selling something, he was offered a price that he was not pleased with. So, he said, "No, by Him Who gave Moses superiority over all human beings!" Hearing him, an Ansari man got up and slapped him on the face and said, "You say: By Him Who Gave Moses superiority over all human beings although the Prophet (Muhammad) is present amongst us!" The Jew went to the Prophet and said, "O Abu-l-Qasim! I am under the assurance and contract of security, so what right does so-and-so have to slap me?" The Prophet asked the other, "Why have you slapped". He told him the whole story. The Prophet became angry, till anger appeared on his face, and said, "Don't give superiority to any prophet amongst Allah's Prophets, for when the trumpet will be blown, everyone on the earth and in the heavens will become unconscious except those whom Allah will exempt. The trumpet will be blown for the second time and I will be the first to be resurrected to see Moses holding Allah's Throne. I will not know whether the unconsciousness which Moses received on the Day of Tur has been sufficient for him, or has he got up before me. And I do not say that there is anybody who is better than Yunus bin Matta." "

The umma agreed unanimously that the prophet Muhammad (s) was preferred to all of the prophets. It was proved by clear evidences and considered to be as one of the necessities of Islam.
Abu Hurayra insulted Prophet (s.a.w) by saying he was impure at the time of Prayer.
Sahih Bukhari ,Volume 1, Book 5, Number 274:
Narrated Abu Huraira:
"Once the call (Iqama) for the prayer was announced and the rows were straightened. Allah's Apostle came out; and when he stood up at his Musalla, he remembered that he was Junub. Then he ordered us to stay at our places and went to take a bath and then returned with water dropping from his head. He said, "Allahu-Akbar", and we all offered the prayer with him."
Narrated Abu Huraira:
"Once the call (Iqama) for the prayer was announced and the rows were straightened. Allah's Apostle came out; and when he stood up at his Musalla, he remembered that he was Junub. Then he ordered us to stay at our places and went to take a bath and then returned with water dropping from his head. He said, "Allahu-Akbar", and we all offered the prayer with him."
Glory be to the Prophet! He was pure all his times. He was always with wudu'. All the prophets were infallible and far above what this dotard raved. If what he said was ascribed to the veracious and faithful believers, away from the prophets, it would disgrace them, so how about the prophets?
The Abyssinians play in the mosque in front of Prophet(s.a.w)!!!!!
Al-Bukhari mentioned that Abu Hurayra had said: "While the Abyssinians were playing with their bayonets in front of the Prophet in the mosque, Omar entered and began to throw them with pebbles. The Prophet said to Omar: "Let them do that." 1
The Prophet was far away from play and higher than levity. He knew well, more than any one else, of the prohibited actions. He would never let the ignorant to play in the mosque in front of him. He was busy, all the time, with the divine tasks. He had no time to spend with play or in vain. He was far above to let his honoured mosque be for play and vanity. (A grievous word it is that comes out of their mouths; they speak nothing but a lie) 18:5 (Quran).

Abu Hurayra lied about Prophet's(s.a.w) Uncle-Abu Talib
Abu Hurayra said: "The prophet Muhammad (s) said to his uncle Abu Talib: "Say that there is no god but Allah and I will witness it for you in the day of Resurrection." His uncle said: "I would say it to comfort you but I was afraid that Quraysh would blame me and say that he did it because of impatience." Therefore, Allah revealed to the Prophet this verse: (Surely you cannot guide whom you love, but Allah guides whom He pleases) 28:56 (Quran)
Abu Hurayra said in another place: "The Prophet (s) said to his uncle when he was dying: "Say that there is no god but Allah and I will witness it for you in the Day of Resurrection." His uncle refused to say. Therefore Allah revealed to the Prophet (s): ((Surely you cannot guide whom you love, but Allah guides whom He pleases).(Quran) 1
Abu Hurayra said in another place: "The Prophet (s) said to his uncle when he was dying: "Say that there is no god but Allah and I will witness it for you in the Day of Resurrection." His uncle refused to say. Therefore Allah revealed to the Prophet (s): ((Surely you cannot guide whom you love, but Allah guides whom He pleases).(Quran) 1
Abu Talib, may Allah have mercy upon him, died in the tenth year of the prophethood of Muhammad (s), i.e. three years before hijra. It was also said that he died in the ninth or eighth year. So he died ten years before Abu Hurayra came to Hijaz. Then how could Abu Hurayra meet the Prophet and his uncle while they were talking about what he narrated as if he had seen with his eyes and heard with his ears? But he was of those, whose faith and reason didn't guide their tongues!
This tradition was one of many invented by the mercenaries to flatter the enemies of Ali and his progeny. The Umayyad state tried whatever was possible to spread it. There were enough works written by the scholars that refuted this tradition and proved Abu Talib's faithfulness with definite evidences. Whoever wants to know the truth of the faithfulness of Abu Talib, the Prophet's uncle, who was responsible for the Prophet since his childhood, brought him up, secured and safeguarded him, let refer to those books. 2 Abu Talib said in one of his poems:
0 Allah, may You witness
0 Allah, may You witness
I have believed in the mission of Muhammad. 3
1. Refer to Muslim's Sahih, vol. 1, p.p. 31.
2. Refer to (al-Hujja ala ath-Thahib ila Takfeer Abu Talib) by imam Shamsuddeen Abu Ali Fakhr bin Sharif Ma'd al-Musawi and Sheikh al-Abtah by Sayyed Muhammad Ali Sharafuddin al-Musawi.
3. Abu Talib had much poetry showing his faith.
