He was born in the year 194 After hijra, and he was born in Al Baqarah. And Mahara is present day it was Pakistan.
And he was born as a non Arab.
But look what he achieved in Arabic Allahu Akbar. He was an Arab. And a liberal Muslim also wasn't an Arab. And remember, there was an Arab and Olivia motormouth, he was an Arab and many others, but look what they achieved in Arabic. And as the saying goes, those on top of mountains today, it didn't come from the heavens, where were they? They were in the dirt yesterday. True. Everyone starts on the bottom. So you have to start somewhere. As I was telling one of the brothers earlier, you start somewhere, and then eventually you get to the top, but it took a lot of hard work and look what they achieved. Allahu Akbar amazing.
Now as for his full name, it was Mohammed. Even he knows
Ismail al Bukhari, hamady businessman alcoholic, I was just filming
and he was born blind spot Allah.
But despite that his mother never lost sight, pun intended, of the one who could cure her son Allah azza wa jal. So she may draw upon upon dua. And when you make dua with a sincere intention, and your heart is present, Allah will respond as a chef Abdulaziz after a few eloquently said, a thorough dryness in a certain Muslim Ummah. Delica cathedral minimill de Lune. The most common dua of the Muslims today is guide us to the straight path yet most of them go astray. Why? Because there's no huddle. There's no presence of the heart. He said, Hold on, we'll call behind the DUA. Shortly jab, the presence of the heart is a condition for it to be accepted. So that's a condition. So she had of
course, you can imagine the mother or those who are fathers, you can relate to that your kids when they get hurt, you'd rather you get hurt 10 times over than for them to even have a scratch. So you'd rather happened to you than to your child. So she may draw upon that and Allah azza wa jal blessed him with eyesight.
And what did you do after that? She took him from Uzbekistan, to Mecca, and she traveled as a widow. So to make matters worse, her husband died and Buhari was orphaned.
He was an orphan. On top of that calamities and calamities,
and she took him from Uzbekistan, she didn't just sit there feel sorry for herself. And she made the best out of a bad situation. She took it from Uzbekistan to Mecca. Why? So he can receive an Islamic education and from Uzbekistan to make it less difficult. She didn't have an SUV for driving the desert Camelback and no five star hotel on the way know, she had to say in the 10 and on the whales, very difficult. But Lola will look at a sacrifice. Because the bigger your sacrifice, the bigger the reward. Look what she got a scholar as a child, sometimes parents say you know what medica is just too far. Or you know, Unity grandma, she's too far. 20 minutes. I'm too busy as a parent, you know,
I've got stuff to do. Oh, she traveled from Uzbekistan to Mecca alone. So as far as travel and knowledge, that's where we can start in Makkah.
So she used to go to Mecca.
Of course for some but also for HUD, and at times she would complete a HUD you want to go back? And when she would do that, and Bahati what would you do? Please take me home mom, No, leave me here. Mom, let me stay in Mecca, you go catch up with you later. So when she would perform how they wanted to go back to Bukhara he'd want to stay there. So of course he struggles and knowledge began with his mother
and that's the first Institute in school and all madrasa a the added the added the sharp and evil about the woman is the school, the Institute, if you prepare her well, you've prepared a great people. So therefore it started with the mother at home, there is no better school than a righteous home. And there's no better teacher than a virtuous parent. A lot of people they complain about the school, or the masjid or the markers or the private college. No, you should start in the home happy. And he finished his elementary studies at 11. In other words, that when he finished school when he was 11 years old, that's when he finished and that's when he started serious Hadith. And he's always
learning before that, but he really started serious at 11. And that when he corrected he che one day in class. He basically narrated the Hadith with the metal in the Senate. Of course, that's how they used to do and they said No, impossible there those two people in that chain of narration could have met. Why? Because they lived in two different lands two different time periods. He goes, No, no What do you know you're just 11 year old child. He says I insist. So he shaved check this information and he realized that he was right. And whenever Buhari would be in his classes, he'd get nervous when he wouldn't.
He certainly get nervous when you're on the road because he was 11 years old. That's when he showed signs and the first signs of greatness amazing within
Six years, he was a scholar already. He had basically taken everything he could from his hometown Bihar by that time, and he said he had over 1000 machines if over 1000 teachers
to be precise, he had 1000 ad had 1000 ad mache, 17 years of age, Allahu Akbar. And by that time he had memorized so many Hadith and the chains, and not just that he had memorized the dates and birthplaces of the men in that chain, when they were born, where they were born, when they died, who they met where they're reliable. Are they trustworthy? Were they allies? That's difficult because sometimes one Hadith has seven, eight names. And the name is difficult. We're learning just four or five of them had the theme. And perhaps we've already forgotten what we mentioned last week. When was it Muhammad Boone?
Difficult, difficult. He memorized the mutton and the Senate, not just that when every narrator was born, when they lived, where they lived when they died, everything Allahu Akbar amazing by 16 or 17. Usually kids students, they finish school at 18. They haven't memorized one Hadith one. He's memorized 1000s by them. And he a teenager finishes school, you know, your 12 as a memorized one Hadith, one might be who memorize a method or two, by give me the chain. And we said, how do you remain Chang and the text?
Then, he stayed in Barcelona.
And Barcelona is present day Iraq. Kufa, also for four or five years.
And then he went to an hijas.
Egypt twice.
Al Medina, of course, where he said,
at night, I would go
looking for a place to write down and basically revise my notes. There was nowhere to go because of course, it was dark and he had needed light. So he said, I'd go to the grave of the Prophet Mohammed Salah Salem, and the next to his grave and record and revise my notes. Because he's trying to get the baraka. No, we didn't believe in that stuff. But because there was like there. So it sits next to the grave of the profiles of to Saddam.
And he went to Baghdad.
And that's where he met the illustrious Mr. Muhammad. Thus, he was one of his teachers. Once again, we can see that these great men walls, students of each other, he said I saw them and Muhammad when they're running with his shoes in Baghdad, where was he running to the kitchen? next movie? No, the catch the next halacha gathering of knowledge is also running with his shoes. Are you lmm Are you going Allahu Akbar. So he actually saw him and all of his travel and knowledge was for four decades. Now let's look at his actual so he
How did he compile it? And what's included? First and foremost, what was it called?
I'll jam. Pasta here. Almost not a tomato sauce.
It didn't call us or Hey, hello Buhari. Allah azza wa jal change that after his death, now it's known as sahih al Bukhari, Allah placed the name so he authentic next to his name, out of honouring out of to srif integrity. Amazing. Look at these great men, they left such a legacy behind and due to the loss the pure sincere intention, Allah azza wa jal bless their works and bless their books after them. Everyone knows that as Sahil Bihari, but he didn't call it that. Now why did he compile this book at a jam? So he must not and Microsoft?
Why did he compile it two reasons. Number one from dreams he had a number two from a casual remark from his shake
as his dreams or at least to one day he saw a dream
where he was defending Rasul Allah and he sort of slammed was defending him and his honor. He had another dream where he said everyone was standing around the Prophet on his right on his left ahead of him and I was walking behind the profile is sort of Salaam in his footsteps. So those were his dreams he dreamt about the Prophet Allah. These men you've noticed also the self they dream about us Allah Allah as well wasn't just an Buhari, but a lot of them why? Because they thought of us.
Now today, many people what are they dream about? They dream about the dream car or they dream house or they dream girl because it always thinking about it.
But they used to dream of Rasul Allah, Allah because he just think about him Allah. So he had dreams of Rasul Allah. One day, he shaved, casually remarked in class, you know what the Sheikh is half
even Rockaway.
A great Scotland had this was also the shape of a Muslim, which we're going to take in a moment. He made a casual remark in class. He said, I wish if only
Only one of you guys is talking to students. If only one of your students, one of them had this in here, and he had 1000s of students would compile a book of Hadith that only contain genuine narrations isn't only that stuck in his mind along with the dream coupled together, he couldn't let it go. And from then on, he started compiling his amazing masterpiece, which is known today. So he fell behind it. It took him 16 years to compile
16 years, this was overnight. This amazing work took a lot of effort. 16 years.
As we said, this hacker boy had masses of students, all it took was a casual remark. So I'll make a casual mark right now. If only one of you brothers and Sharla can be the next one Bihari.
That's it. One of the brothers gets up and leaves
the first step in the wrong direction.
So when you are sincere, my dear brothers, Allah will honor you in this world before the next. Now this saw he had he said I'd memorized 600,000 to 700,000 Hadith with the chains
600 not 6000 not 600 600,000 to 700,000 Hadith with the chains. And he said I sifted through each one. And I narrowed it down to 7563 That's what Sahil Buhari has today. How many a hadith
so he's so he has 7563 he sifted through his own personal library 600,000 a hadith. And he got it down to that number. He said I could have had more. But he said he just wanted the cream of the crop the best of the best. And he wanted the emulator. So what does
that mean summary in Arabic, the soil
to make something concise, so he said I could have made it more.
Maybe there's others which are abridged, even shorter, without the repetitions without the repetitions around 2500.
Before he wrote down any narration, he would pray is the is the horror.
And one of Yeah, so he would pray he prayed at least 7500 times it's too hot. And once one of his companions said I saw Al Bihari get up around 18 times in one night, just to edit his works 18 times in one night. So that was a bare minimum, you can double triple that number in terms of how many times he prayed istikhara.
At best we've previously hired twice, once for our house at once for the wife. Right? Which has money to get and which wife
which spouse and which house right? That's twice he prayed it over 7500 times. Now
was this man heavily criticized his show was don't think he wasn't without criticism? No. He was criticized then he was tested because haters are gonna hate when people see you with blessings and you have further knowledge. People are gonna hate how knowledgeable you are. Is haters out there alone will start. As mentioned some of these tests.
There were many. Let's start with the first test in Baghdad.
10 men heard of this man on Buhari who had memorized 600,000 a hadith ago no way. This can't be true. 10 of them conspire. They said you know what, let's go sit in one of his lessons and ask him afterwards. Some well known Hadith and we're going to mix up every single chain. So each man how many of them were with it 10 And each man came with 10 ahaadeeth. So 10 times 10 100 100 a hadith and 100 chains, they mix them all up. So the first one stood up and he said yeah, well Imam Have you heard of this hadith and you mentioned the Hadith and the chain but it was all mixed up. One Hadith he said Never heard of it. What about this hadith you mentioned never heard of? What about this
hadith you mentioned all 10 and Buhari said never heard any single one of them. People are freaking out how can you not know these are Hadith They're well known like in them elemental vignette for example. Next person stands up another 10 never heard any single one of them. Next person stand up he says he's 10 never heard any of them. Next person all 10 when they complete basically 100 narrations I haven't heard a single one of them. I don't know them. These are what I know. And he narrated every single Hadith I mentioned with the exact order of chains of narration. He fixed the roll up for them. This is what that's why upon Allah amazing. So that was the first test in Baghdad.
The tests got harder later in summer count.
This time 400 not tense
Students 400 Students put into the test and he succeeded in exposing all of their plots and tricks 400 Allah who
he became extremely popular after that after people now rumors spread this guy's amazing no one can basically falter this guy.
He became extremely popular. And when he went to nice abode, which is the hometown of a Muslim, he had a grand reception, and there was a great Muhaddith at the time there. Anyone know his name?
He was a hater.
Have you heard of him? Because he's what Allah azza wa jal does to the haters. People who are insincere people doing it for showing off people doing for fame and fortune, as though howdy. This man I remember though he was a great Muhaddith he was teaching like I remember Buhari. I remember though Halle he heard about Buhari coming to his town so he told the students go and learn on Buhari right. However the people wouldn't say her that Buhari What did they do? They lifted locally they became addicted who wouldn't? So they left that normally that's when he started to hate on him. He started to hate on Buhari and he spread rumors about him. He basically spread rumors that alcohol he
claims that the Quran is created the fitna of Allah Muhammad, and we said Al Bukhari, Salima Muhammad, so that fitna extended into the time of Mr. Muhammad. And by the way, you asked me last week did extend into a share FaceTime now he had died before the fitness right. I checked up the dates. So he was basically also accused of kufr. So one day he is asked this question, what do you say about the Quran is a created? He said, the voice that you recite with is created by not the words which is true your voice, your vocal cords, your larynx, your voice box is not created? It is but the most half the words of Allah or not. So what did they do? They took the first part, they
edited it, and they ran with it. They looked at the second part, that's what people do today. One hour lecture, they'll take a two minute snippet and then put on YouTube Oh, we expose the shape right? Or PDF refutation. Right, it happens even to today. So basically, you had those people same mentality back then. He was accused of coup for my brother's alcohol. He was accused of Kufa. Yes. He was also accused check this out of not even being able to pray.
One loser said he didn't even know how to pray. He said by Allah, that man was to come here right now. I'll give him 10,000 Hadith on prayer alone, right now.
Of course, he didn't dare show his face. Just the prayer, not everything else like the other one. And also, and we'll do a bar and it just the solid. I'll give you 10,000 a hadith right now. Amazing. So he had haters along with Stan. But eventually people forgot the haters and everyone remember that Buhari.
And at times, he would enter a town with a huge grand reception so many people and he will leave with no one. Because of course the people there they started to spread rumors. And it was mentioned when he died. There was approximately two or three people who buried him that was it.
And by the way, Muhammad we had 600,000 people to two and a half million and his graveyard at his funeral. We had around two to three people buried. But perhaps Allah Allah did that to protect his loss to protect his heart. Look what happened after he died. Amazing. So those were some of the tests he faced
us for His Taqwa. He once made a dua after all these rumors were being spread around him. After all these rumors are being spread about him. His students said I was there and I was listening to alcohol they make this to our own design of Allah. You know, they are saying this because of jealousy. You know, they are only saying this out of hatred, out of envy. He says I was waiting for Al Bukhari to make dua against them. But that dua never came yet taco. Because these are his brothers at the end of the day. He's Muslim brothers amazing. He didn't have this, you know, hatred
and animosity in his heart, because your heart is too valuable for hatred, animosity to rent a spot. True. Keep it up.
And he even said one day, Allah will not punish me on the day of judgment for backbiting.
How can you say that? Yeah, Imam. How can you have the confidence to say that? He said, Because of the way he would deem people unreliable, he want to say he's a liar. He'll say, his trustworthiness, his truthfulness is questionable. That is it. His credibility is questionable. That's all he had to say. If nobody said your truthfulness is questionable. That is a you're definitely questionable. So that's all he had to say. But that was out of his Taqwa not like today what do people do? Yeah, cuz they're not gathered because they're with the shirt that indicates something which is perpetual, and faster and more effort, right? We we've seen this recently brothers in the UK. These people I'm
gonna have your call and these are confirm you do this. You're a cafeteria. You're a cabinet making tech field. And he straight out the field. Not even giving the brothers excuses. Alcohol. He wouldn't even do that. You'll say his
truthfulness is questionable. That was all Yanni basically, it has to say to for people to put doubt about that person.
Even Khuzaima said, he also authored a book of authentic narration. He said I've never seen anyone beneath the canopy of the heaven, who has more knowledge of the hadith of Rasulullah. Then al Bukhari
even Jaffa said, and this quote sums up why Buhari was and went here. If I was able to take moments from my life and give it to Allah Hari, I would have done so because when I died is even Jaffa was a great scholar. If I die, a little bit of knowledge is buried with me. But when I'm Buhari Died,
a lot of knowledge was buried with Him. If I was able to take from my life and granted to him I would have done so.
And of course, alcohol, he wrote many books and he's famous is a gem. So he he also at COVID, and Aladdin, we'll move rods, which are also great books there. One is on history and one is on manners. He died in the year 256 After Hijra on the eve of RADLE.
But what eight he would have one of the great scholars of his time, and his name has eluded me at the moment, but it's an authentic narration. He said I had a dream that I saw the Prophet Muhammad, once again, it's the dream a lot of Rasul Allah. I saw the Prophet Muhammad and he was waiting there. He said, yo Sula, who you waiting for? He said, he said, we're waiting for Mohammed bin Ismail. And finally woke up and I was given the news that day that Buhari had passed away.
So sorry, during law school was waiting for him. He said he died that very day. Allah azza wa jal have mercy upon him and all the scholars. Let's go on to mention Halima Muslim Now
