Commentary
The Hadîth contains the glad tiding that each age, even after the age of the Companions, shall have its preservers (memorizers) of Ahâdîth, regardless of whether their number is more or less.
Memorizing the Ahâdîth is generally taken to mean learning them by heart, although the term would also include preserving them in black and white.
