Le Sahih d’al-Boukhari

This book was keen to respect the chronological order of the original version in Arabic, Sahih al-Bukhari.

However, with the rearrangement of the text, especially because of the elimination of some very close Hadiths each other, which are reported several times by different authors, and the Hadiths which have a less evident interest, it seemed appropriate to make a slight modification of the conventional classification, for the reader's understanding. Still, rare Hadiths (less than five percent of the total) come back once or twice in the text. The explanation is that these Hadiths treat two or more different topics and find themselves, for each subject in the relevant chapter. Other Hadiths show some thematic variations or additional information, which required their inclusion in the text, despite their apparent similarity.

Koranic quotes and Hadith or part of Hadith form what is called the tardjama. These introductory texts, the actual Hadith, which includes the entire suite of eye or hearing witnesses, reliable (the Rawis) who transmitted traditions from their origin. Following Rawis who succeeded continuously transmitting Hadith in their authenticity, as the isnad (the chain) and is the base of the book.
