Bukhari Podcast

Introduction

For the first time ever in the English language, Shaykh Abu Yusuf Riyadh ul Haq delivers a series of detailed commentaries on al Tajrid al Sarih, the abridged Saheeh al-Bukhari, which is a comprehensive coverage of the blessed Sunnah of the greatest benefactor of mankind.

By the grace of Allah we have this great and unique opportunity to study the words and actions of the Prophet (Sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam) in the established and traditional manner as preserved and conveyed by the Predecessors through an unbroken and authentic chain of narration under the tutorage of Shaykh Abu Yusuf Riyadh ul Haq. Saheeh al-Bukhari which is widely regarded as being the most authentic book after the Book of Allah. The Saheeh of Imam Bukhari, comprising of approximately 4,400 different narrations, selected from an original collection of 600,000 is considered the pinnacle of the science of hadeeth. Each hadeeth is covered at length and an explanation given of the great wisdom behind how and why it was selected for inclusion in the Saheeh, along with its relevance to the chapter heading. Derived rulings as well as the context and circumstances surrounding the individual hadeeth are also discussed. Most importantly, lessons are drawn that aid the listener to practically implement the words of the Prophet (Sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam) in his or her life.

The serialised lessons are delivered live every Friday at Al Kawthar Academy (Leicester) and the recordings are available from this website as a weekly podcast.

Who was Imam Bukhari?

Imam Muhammad bin Ismaeel al Bukhari (194-254 Hijri) was born in Bukhara, modern day Uzbekistan. He saw a dream in his youth in which he was fanning the air and removing the dust and flies whilst seated in front of the noble Prophet (Sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam). This was an early indication of the glorious future Allah had planned for him. Upon interpretation, he was told that he would be instrumental in removing falsehood from the ahadeeth of the noble Prophet (Sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam).

He is undoubtedly the greatest ever Imam of hadeeth with over 90,000 students having studied the Jami al Saheeh directly from him and over 130 commentaries of his work having been completed. In the past the Great Scholars of hadeeth used to travel for hundreds of miles for the sake of one hadeeth and yet we are getting this opportunity without all this hard work and effort. Let us not let this great opportunity of listening to the commentary of the abridged Saheeh al-Bukhari go to waste. We request that you listen and benefit from the weekly Bukhari daroos and thereby learn the words of the Holy Prophet (Sallallaahu ‘alaihi wasallam).

The podcast is ideal for those who are unable to travel to Al Kawthar Academy for the lessons as well as for those who wish to review, revise and revisit the daroos after attending the lesson. For subscription information, click here.
