Sahih Bukhari Shareef In urdu Pdf Free Download
The actual title of the book commonly referred to as Sahih al-Bukhari, according to Ibn al-Salah, is: al-Jaami’ al-Sahih al-Musnad al-Mukhtasar min Umur Rasool Allah wa sunanihi wa Ayyamihi. A word for word
translation is: The Abridged Collection of Authentic Hadith with
Connected Chains regarding Matters Pertaining to the Prophet, His
practices and His Times. Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani mentioned the same title replacing the word umur, matters, with hadith.
Sahih al-Bukhari as it is commonly referred to, is one of the six canonical hadith collections of Islam. These prophetic traditions, or hadith, were collected by the Persian Muslim scholar Muhammad ibn Ismail al-Bukhari, after being transmitted orally for generations. Sunni Muslims view this as one of the three most trusted collections of hadith along with Sahih Muslim and al-Muwatta . In some circles, it is considered the most authentic book after the Quran.The Arabic word sahih translates as authentic or correct.
Actual title.
Al-Bukhari traveled widely throughout the Abbasid
empire from the age of 16, collecting those traditions he thought
trustworthy. It is said that al-Bukhari collected over 300,000 hadith
and included only 2,602 traditions in his Sahih.
At the time when Bukhari saw [the earlier] works and conveyed them, he
found them, in their presentation, combining between what would be
considered sahih and hasan and that many of them included daif
hadith. This aroused his interest in compiling hadith whose
authenticity was beyond doubt. What further strengthened his resolve was
something his teacher, Ishaq ibn Ibrahim al-Hanthalee – better known as
Ibn Rahoyah – had said. Muhammad ibn Ismaa’eel al-Bukhari said, “We
were with Ishaq ibn Rahoyah who said, ‘If only you would compile a book
of only authentic narrations of the Prophet.’ This suggestion remained
in my heart so I began compiling the Sahih.” Bukhari also said,
“I saw the Prophet in a dream and it was as if I was standing in front
of him. In my hand was a fan with which I was protecting him. I asked
some dream interpreters, who said to me, ‘You will protect him from
lies.’ This is what compelled me to produce the Sahih.
The book covers almost all aspects of life in providing proper guidance of Islam such as the method of performing prayers and other actions of worship directly from the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Sahih al-Bukhari is the work of over 16 years by Bukhari, who before writing any Hadith in this book performed ablution and two units of prayer asking guidance from Allah. Then he would do the necessary research and investigation, observing if the particular Hadith fits in to his strict criteria of authenticity and if he is sure that the Hadith is authentic, he wrote it in the book.
