Hadith Collection

Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj (817–875 CE) compiled Sahih Muslim, the second most authoritative hadith collection in Sunni Islam. A student of al-Bukhari, he grouped all chains of transmission for each hadith together, making his work especially valuable for studying transmission history.

Muhammad al-Bukhari (810-870 CE) was the most influential hadith scholar in Islamic history. His Sahih al-Bukhari, compiled through decades of rigorous authentication work, became the most authoritative collection of the Prophet's traditions and a cornerstone of Islamic law and scholarship.
