Authenticity Of Sahih Bukhari And Musnad Ahmed
Sahih Bukhari is neither divine scripture nor a book of religion. It is a book of history. Hadith narrations contained in this book and other books of narrations do not add anything to the content of Islam. The content of Islam has been transmitted to us in the form of the Quran and the Sunnah. Other than established historical facts, all history reaches us through a handful of people and there can be differences of opinion about them. Besides, how any book of hadith has reached us is irrelevant. We verify the chain of every narration and understand these narrations in the light of the Quran and the Sunnah.
