The full hadith canon was too bulky for clandestine Moriscos to own

Evidence

In early centuries, hadith had been collected into what were regarded as the “six books” of unimpeachable authority (which is not to say that other sources might not contain genuine material); above all, two collections were esteemed, those of al-Bukhari and of Muslim, often referred to as “the Two Sound ones” (Sahihan). To have all this at hand would have meant owning a bulky library indeed. It is hardly surprising that we find no indication that any heavyweight works were in Morisco hands. — L. P.
