(810-870) Sunni Muslim religious historian; collector of hadiths. His work is not considered reliable by Shi'is.
His collected traditions are named Sahih Bukhari, i.e. 'Authentic by Bukhari'. Its original title was al-Jami' al-Sahih, 'Authentic Collection'.
His collection contains 7275 traditions, validated (see Isnad) out of a material of 600,000. What makes a single tradition is not unambiguous; two may be duplicates or complimentary, and one may in fact well be divided. The small number of authenticated traditions indicates to what extent fantasy or inaccuracy had taken toll of Islamic tradition at his time.
His well organized, superior in that respect to the Koran. All traditions are rendered as they had been transmitted to him, each organized into its most appropriate of 93 sections; many traditions deal with more than one theme.
The excellent organization by Bukhari is part of the reason for his popularity and influence. Over time, Muslims have come to declare his collection for perfect. It has been lifted up to a level almost as high as that of the Koran, in both theology and jurisprudence.
His personal point of view was conservative, and he opposed the Mu'tazili orientation.
Although Bukhari's technique was profoundly honest, diligently and excellently carried through, the technique itself was far from perfect seen with modern eyes. It had no means to identify fake or altered traditions with plausible content and perfectly constructed isnads. As his work began 200 years after the death of Muhammad there was no contemporaries to seek guidance with, he had no form of neutral sources and there was nothing like an archaeological science at his time.
