Every time we say “a Hadith narrated by al-Bukhari”, we mention the name of an orphan from Bukhara who travelled thousands of miles, sifted hundreds of thousands of reports, and compiled the book the scholars judged the most authentic after the Qur’an. The eighth book of Tracing the Scholars of Islam tells the story of Imam al-Bukhari, from the Qur’an, authentic Hadith and the recognised books of biography, with stories that need checking clearly marked. “And indeed, We will be its guardian.”
“Indeed, it is We who sent down the Qur’an and indeed, We will be its guardian.”
