Book Synopsis:
Sahih Al-Bukhari [Arabic-English] translated by Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan is one of the most authoritative and revered collections of Hadith in Islamic history. Compiled by Imam Muhammad ibn Ismail al-Bukhari (810–870 CE), this monumental work is widely recognized by scholars and Muslims worldwide as the most authentic compilation of the sayings, actions, and approvals of the Prophet Muhammad ﷺ, second only to the Holy Qur’an in religious importance.
This bilingual Arabic-English edition makes the timeless wisdom of the Prophet ﷺ accessible to both scholars and general readers. The original Arabic text is presented alongside Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan’s precise and widely accepted English translation, allowing readers to study the Hadith in their classical form while also understanding their meanings in clear, modern English. This dual-language format is especially valuable for students of Islamic studies, researchers, and anyone seeking a deeper connection to the Sunnah.
Sahih Al-Bukhari is meticulously organized into books and chapters covering every aspect of Islamic belief and practice, including faith (Iman), worship (Salah, Zakat, fasting, Hajj), ethics, social conduct, commerce, family life, governance, and spirituality. Each Hadith is carefully authenticated through a rigorous chain of narrators (Isnad), reflecting Imam Bukhari’s unparalleled standards of scholarly precision and integrity.
Dr. Muhammad Muhsin Khan’s translation is celebrated for its clarity, faithfulness to the original Arabic, and helpful explanatory notes. His work has become a global reference for English-speaking Muslims and is frequently used in Islamic universities, madrasas, and personal study circles around the world.
