	'''Sahih Bukhari''' (in Arabic صحيح البخاري, Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī) is a collection of [[Hadith ~~(definition)~~\|hadiths]] (narrations) by a central Asian, al-Bukhari, who was born in Bukhara in what is modern-day Uzbekistan around 200 years after the accepted death the prophet Muhammad <ref>Muhammad died 632. Bukhari was born 810.</ref>. He collected narrations which were transmitted only orally for generations and collated them into a book of sayings, stories, and traditions about the Prophet Muhammad and his companions. The collection is called "authentic" (''sahih'') and is considered second only to the Quran in terms of authenticity and authority amongst most Sunni Muslims. The [[Sahih\|"authenticness" of a narration]] are judged by for authenticity according to whether the people in the chain of narrators were good, truthful Muslims in the traditional Sunni reckoning. The most common narrators in Sahih Bukhari from Muhammad's generation are Abu Huraira and Aisha. See also [https://sunnah.com/search/?q=abu+huraira] and [https://sunnah.com/search/?q=narrated+aisha].For each Hadith there is always a long list of narrators, listed as "so and so told so and so" etc. It is also part of "the six books" (الكتب الستة, ''Al-Kutub as-Sittah''), the most trusted hadith collections in Sunni Islam. There are over 7000 narrations in the collection, but there are often different versions of the same story, so the actual number of narrations is less than 3000 <ref>A.C. Brown, Jonathan (2009).
