Yousef Bakeer – Imam Bukhari and His Credibility

While at Hamilton Illa and to Muslim moon, he says all believers

have taqwa in Allah subhanho wa Taala and Taqwa means that we

should be conscious of Allah subhanaw taala, who should be

aware of him, and we shouldn't allow ourselves to die, except in

a state of la ilaha illAllah Muhammadan rasul allah sallallahu

alayhi wa sallam. I began my hotbar by asking Allah Who Subhana

wa Taala first and foremost, to send blessings and prayers among

our beloved prophet muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam Aloha

Muhammad in Phil Abilene or suddenly we're selling one mo

selling more and more than Rick Allen Urbina, Wahhabi Bina

Muhammad in Philomela in Allah Illa yummy Dean, My Dear Brothers

and Sisters in Islam, as salaam aleikum wa rahmatullah wa

barakato.

The

listens and the life

of Imam Al Bukhari

Rahmatullah hiya Ali is a subject of so many books

and in today's hood by insha, Allah Tala,

I'm going to give you a very quick overview about his life and about

one of the most beautiful qualities that Imam Al Bukhari

has. So a man his name is Abu Abdullah that his cornea, Abu

Abdullah Mohammed, even Ismail Ibrahim Emil movie era, Al

Bukhari, that's his full name. His grand father, Aloe Vera was one of

the people who witnessed the Sahaba and revert to Islam at that

time.

And Emmanuel Buhari

was very passionate about one subject and which is Al Hadith.

And we're gonna go in depth with this in sha Allah Tala. But in his

childhood was very interesting. He lost his eyesight at the age of

three.

And then, with the tremendous desire that his mother made for

him, Allah subhanaw taala has returned his eyesight back.

In the Islamic books in the truth, we don't have a lot of information

about who his mother was. But we know her through this do is that

she made for ALLAH SubhanA wa Taala for her child to gain his

eyesight back. And subhanAllah. Just think about this. at very

young age, Allah gave him this huge tiller.

All of the legends, all of the hearers in the human history, had

to go through these kinds of hardships. No one actually made it

the easy way. If there are no hardships, no development, so Imam

Al Bukhari had to experience this at very young age. And then he had

a dream one time that he was one of the people who actually got to

change the world. And he woke up from that dream and said, I want

to be that one who actually changed the world. He had that

passion, how and when, and all of these questions, he did not have

answers at that time. But he said that he had that dream at very

young age. And then he realized that he had a lot of passion to

memorize al Hadith, right? So at the age of six, one time, he was

in a halacha.

And then his teacher was a scholar of Hadith. And he was actually

seeing one of the Hadith with the chain of narration. So he's saying

Zubayr, and you know, Sophia, and ismail and Ibrahim. So

Emmanuel Buhari at that time, six years old kid, raised his hand and

told him oh, by the way, there is something wrong with this chain of

narration, someone has to be missing. And then his teacher

looked at him was like, Who this who this kid, they wanted to show

me up with my halacha and then he said, go and review your love

your notes, and then the CHE went and checked his his low hands and

came back and realized that Imam Bukhari was right. So he told him,

you're right, but now tell me what what is actually the chain of

narration, the correct one, and then Imam Al Bukhari told him it

is Sophia and zubaid and eau de and you forgot all day. And then

Annie Brahim. And then the the teacher looked at him and told

him, say, a cool new Lukashenko.

Alvi. You have a great future bright future ahead of you. And

then at the age of 16, he actually decided to travel to Mecca to

study Hadith. That was his passion. I want to actually study

the words of Prophet Muhammad sallallahu alayhi wa sallam, he

had that passion. So he went and he started his journey there. Fast

forward a little bit, the age of 22. He actually decided to go to

get the blessing of meeting Al Imam Muhammad and humble Radi

Allahu Anhu in Baghdad, so he got to travel like about 1000 miles to

go from Mecca to Baghdad to seek knowledge from Imam Muhammad

before his death.

Now

Imam Al Bukhari at that time was will knowledgeable about Hadith

towards the age of 30. He was a great scholar. Everybody knows who

he is, if they're actually want to check any any of the Hadith or the

authenticity of a hadith, they got to travel all the way to Baghdad,

to look for a memorable hurry to ask them questions. And now

there's some jealousy we're around and some people you know, we're

questioning you know, that that qualification of Emmanuel Buhari

and there's like he has so much hype and we're not sure if this

hype is true. So the actually got to quiz him in public one time.

So in Masjid

Al Kabir feedback that one of the biggest massages in Baghdad at

that time, they told him come and we will test you and the Hadith.

And as As humans, we love drama. So a lot of people came and showed

up to the masjid at that time just to watch this kind of public test

with Imam Al Bukhari.

And then

the chef started reciting or reading 100 Hadees from Prophet

Muhammad sallallahu alayhi salam style

and he did something you know, he wanted to trick him honorable

curry. So he makes a match the Senate with the Mexican Senate, I

promise this is not I'm still a hadith class, but senate is the

narrator's and Ulmerton is the actual words of Prophet Muhammad

Sallallahu wasallam. So, in number Armelle, orbignya, that's a metal,

right? These are the words of Prophet Homosassa. who narrated

this hadith. These these narrators we call it Senate. Right. So the

chef wanted to trick a mammal Buhari so he makes the match. So

he can say, A, B and C narrate it in an envelope in the yard. And in

fact, C, D and F, who are the ones who narrated that hadith? So for

me and you if we hear it now that I'm Albania to say like yeah, that

makes sense this hadith, but for Imam Al Bukhari, because he is a

master of this, if this knowledge, it won't make sense then because

there is something wrong in the narrator's. So every single Hadith

that the sheikh recited at Imam Bukhari, he used to say, I don't

know this hadith. I don't know this hadith. I don't know this

hadith until he completed the hundreds. And then he was like, in

a position where people will say that he's ignorant that he doesn't

know hundreds Hadees he doesn't, you know, people wouldn't realize

why he denied all of these Hadees. So Emmanuel Buhari because he had

this incredible sharp memory. He got to recite to him all of the

100 Hadees back with the wrong narrators. And he then he told

him, and these are the right narrators.

100 Hadees he memorized the wrong ones that he gave him, and he

fixed it and give him the 100 Hadees back with the right

narrations. The scholar said this is incredible, incredible talents

that Imam Al Bukhari had and then

fast forward a little bit. Emmanuel Buhari.

Was someone not just very knowledgeable about this field,

the field of Hadith? He got this honor to actually preserve our

deen because we drive our religion from Al Quran. Well, Hadith

not just that he was mastering that knowledge, but he had one

unique quality Subhanallah you know, I was just doing a research

about this concept of credibility and in the University of Nevada

They had a study for about three decades. And the asked people very

simple questions. They said, What makes a company very sustainable?

What makes you buy a product from a specific company?

And the second question was, what makes you follow a leader

to questions and the ask these questions to around 7000 CEOs and

managers in the US. And then the asked the same questions to people

that they live overseas, Africans, Asians, Latinos, Europeans, people

from different social classes,

people, different professions, engineers, doctors,

the asked every single one from different ethnicity and different

background, the simple questions, two questions, what makes a

company successful, sustainable,

and makes you buy their products? The second question was what, what

makes you follow a leader.

And of course, they got a lot of answers. But they say what was

very interesting is that on the top of this list, was this concept

of credibility.

They say, if some, if a company has the credibility, if the

company has this credibility, build that trust has this good

reputation, it makes me go and buy their products. And then they say,

for me to follow a leader, he has to have this sense of credibility.

If he doesn't have the sense of credibility, nobody will follow.

They will see them as fake. These are the words, summarize the

summarization of this study. Now Subhanallah, right before the

football is talking to one of my my friends who was the CEO of a

big company here, and I told him, would you hire someone who has all

the qualifications, he will get your job done. He's very

knowledgeable about this field. He will get all of your needs for

that work for that job to get to get it done.

And he has, you know, incredible skills. Would you hire that if he

doesn't have the sense of credibility? He told me absolutely

not.

credibility for him. He said it's a veto power. If he doesn't have

credibility, he's not qualified for that job. Now, let's go back

to Imam

Emanuel, who had his credibility.

I will say this and you can quote me on this.

What made Sahil Buhari what it is now, even though so many scholars

and shaves tried to actually write books like Sahil Bukhari and it

never got the authenticity of that book. What made Suhail Buhari what

it is not because he demanded Buhari was the most knowledgeable

man, not because Imam Bukhari had the sharpest memory ever, not

because of all of this, it is because all of these reasons, in

addition to his credibility,

his credibility, and Subhanallah I'll give you a story that's very

unique story from his life. That actually summarized his his

concern about his credibility, one time towards the end of his life.

So he spoke about his childhood, spoke about a little bit about his

teenager life, and then towards 30s. Now we arrived almost to his

death. One time he was named this journey

for a business transaction, it was going for a business trip. And he

was in a ship.

Now, he was just sitting there, and then a random guy came up to

him. And, you know, he started chatting with him. And

Malibu Harry told him, You know, I'm going, you know, to that place

for for business purposes. And I have with me 100,000 dinars, you

know, 100 100,000 dinars. It's an equivalent of a quarter million

dollars. That's a lot of money at that time. So then I had this

100,000 dinars, and I'm actually pursuing that business. So we're

traveling towards that destination.

And this guy who was talking to Imam Bukhari was a man with low

character who was out

Today a thief.

So what he did

he spread the news that he lost 100,000 dinars.

Do you know, what did he do here? He flipped it around. He said to

everybody, I lost 100,000 dinars. Now when actually the captain and

the police will look for this 100,000 dinars they will find it

with who Emmanuel Bukhari so remember, Harry was in a very hard

situation now what's going to happen now the captain decided to

search the ship from the top to the bottom. The wanted to actually

see who stole this 100,000 dinars.

Emmanuel bahariya At this point, did something very unique. He

actually

put the money on his on his sleeve and went all the way to the top of

the ship

and threw the money in the water

was something unexpected why you put it why would you put the money

in your sleeve like this going all the way to the top and then

through quarter million dollars.

And then when the search the ship, they couldn't find anything? So

the thief came to Malmo Buhari and told him, come on, where did you

hide the money?

I know you have that money. So remember how you told him you

know, I throw the money in the water. This like, are you fool.

You just got to throw all of this money to the water, you could have

just defended yourself. And honestly, like he can remember how

he knows the characteristics of this money. He can easily prove

that this money is his. But listen to what Emmanuel Buhari said. He

said, I've worked all of my life to make my credibility clean.

For the hadith of Rasulullah, sallAllahu wasallam to be accepted

from me.

And I'm not willing, I'm not willing to compensate this. This

is more worse than 100,000 dinars. So I would rather get rid of the

100,000 dinars for my credibility, to be very clean for my

reputation, to not be challenged. May Allah subhanaw taala make us

among those who are very cautious about our credibility. Zack Kamala
