Elevating Sahih Al-Bukhari: Affirming The Status of Imam Al Bukhari and His Sahih by Dispelling the Misconceptions Surrounding Them

For centuries, there have been numerous attacks on the hadith, its narrators, scholars, and compilations, especially on Imam al-Bukhārī and his Sahih. These attacks (in the past and present) are of various forms, and today have become widespread due to the advent of social media. Thus, we consider it obligatory and timely to produce a book that dispels these misconceptions and preserves the status of the hadith; particularly its most authentic collection – Sahih al-Bukhārī.

This book addressed 21 major misconceptions arranged in five chapters, and presented academic responses to those misconceptions in a manner that is comprehensible to the layman and sufficient for the one seeking the truth. This work is a noble attempt to fill a gap in defending the pure Sunnah, and is considered part of a debt paid towards Imam al-Bukhārī and his great book (Sahih al-Bukhārī).
