Bukhari's methodology
Bukhari’s methodology involved meticulously collecting and verifying Hadiths (sayings of Prophet Muhammad) by examining their chains of narrators to ensure authenticity. He prioritized reports with strong, reliable sources, often cross-checking multiple versions. Bukhari rejected weak or inconsistent reports, emphasizing strict standards for authenticity. His compilation, Sahih Bukhari, is considered one of the most trustworthy collections, reflecting his rigorous approach to preserving genuine teachings. This careful methodology aimed to create a reliable guide for Muslims, balancing thorough scrutiny with comprehensive collection.
