All Muslim Scholars agree that Sahih
Al-Bukhari is the most authentic book after the Qur’an. The Summarized
Bukhari is condensed into about 1000 pages by selecting a few Ahadith
from the original 9-Volume which has about 4000 pages. This book
contains about 2220 Ahadith. Most of the duplicate hadith from different
chains (with slight variations) have been removed and only one has been
kept.
In Imam Bukhari’s ‘Al-Jami-al-Sahih’
(Sahih Al Bukhari) the Imam had recorded all the Sayings of the Prophet
which he found to be genuine after thorough examination and scrutiny. He
spent sixteen years in research and examined more than sixty thousand
Sayings from which he selected some 7,275 Sayings whose genuineness and
accuracy he established beyond the slightest doubt. Deducting
duplicates, the Imam’s collection contain about four thousand distinct
Sayings.
The text used for this Summary is based
on Imam Zayn al-Din Ahmad ibn Ahmad al-Sharji al-Zubaydi (d. 893) the
author of the abridged Sahih al-Bukhari [al-Tajrid al-Sarih].
