Sahih Bukhari of Muhammad al-Bukhari 

Muhammad ibn Isma'il al-Bukhari al-Jufi was born on Friday, 21 July 810 (13 Shawwal 194 AH) after Jumu'ah prayer in the city of Bukhara in Greater Khorasan (in present-day Uzbekistan). His father, hadith expert Ismail ibn Ibrahim, was a pupil and associate of Malik ibn Anas.

 History:

In the year 205, he started learning the hadith (A.H.). Even as a young child, he memorized ['Abdullah] ibn al-writings. Mubarak's father passed away when he was a baby, thus his mother raised him. In the year 210, having heard the tales of his area, he set off with his mother and brother. Even as a teenager, he started writing books and narrating hadith. As he put it, "I started writing about the Companions and the Followers and their statements when I was eighteen years old. This occurred when 'Ubaid Allah ibn Musa was in power (one of his teachers). At that moment, near night, under a full moon, I also wrote a history book at the Prophet's grave. [16]

He traveled to Mecca at the age of sixteen with his brother and his bereaved mother. He traveled in many directions from there to broaden his hadith knowledge. He visited all of the significant Islamic academic institutions of his era, conversed with academics, and shared hadith knowledge. According to legend, he listened to more than 1,000 men and learned more than 600,000 traditions.

Sunni Muslims hold his book in high respect and see it as the most genuine collection of hadith, even surpassing the Muwatta Imam Malik and the Sahih Muslim of Bukhari's disciple Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj. The majority of Sunni scholars believe that the Quran is second only to it in terms of legitimacy. Al-Adab al-Mufrad, a collection of hadiths on ethics and manners, as well as two books with biographies of hadith narrators are among the other publications he also wrote.

Last year:

He chose Nishapur as his new home in the year 864/250. In Nishapur, he met Muslim ibn al-Hajjaj. He would be regarded as his pupil and eventually the collector and curator of the Sahih Muslim hadith collection, which is second only to that of al-Bukhari. He relocated to Khartank, a village close to Samarkand, due to political issues, where he passed away in the year 870/256.

Sunan Ibn Majah of Ibn Majah:

Ibn Majah, also known as Ab' 'Abdull'll Muhammad bin Yazd bin 'Abdullah ar-Rab' al-Qazvin, was born in Qazvin, Iran, in 209 AH to the Rab'i tribe, a non-Arab people (Iran). His moniker, Ibn Majah, has been explained in several ways, the most prominent of which is that Mjah was his mother. Some academics contend that Mjah was his father's nickname

In his hometown of Qazvin, which had by that time developed into a significant hub of hadith studies, Ibn Majah spent his formative years studying hadith. At the age of 21 or 22 in 230 AH, he set off to explore several nations in search of knowledge. To join the conferences of hadith masters, he traveled to Khurasan, Iraq, the Hijaz, Egypt, and Sham. Additionally, he received instruction from experts in Makkah and Madinah. Later, he traveled to Baghdad, which Imam adh-Dhahab said to be the origin of the (Dr al isn't al 'li wal if), the caliphate's capital and the center of learning. Continuing his journeys to Damascus, Homs, Egypt, Isfahan, Ashkelon, and Nishapur, he never gave up on his search for knowledge and eventually became.

As-Sunan, at-Tafsr, and at-Trkh are three of Imam Ibn Majah's most notable writings, which he left behind after completing his studies. The sixth of the six sound books of hadith, As-Sunan, is a well-known collection of hadith. Imam Ibn Majah compiled adages and the opinions of the companions for At-Tafsr, a commentary on the Qur'an that is backed up by a chain of narrations. At-Trkh is a fantastic work of history and evidence of his intelligence and scholarship. The last two books, which were acclaimed by academics like Ibn Kathr, are no longer in print.

Death:

At the age of 64, Imam Ab'Abdull'h Muhammad Ibn Majah Al-Qazvn passed away on Monday, 22 Ramadan, in the year 273 AH. "The loss of Ibn Majah damaged the column of the throne of wisdom and shook up its pillars," the poet Muhammad bin Aswad al-Qazvn said in his eulogy.

Jami` at-Tirmidhi

Imam Abu 'Isa Muhammad at-Tirmidhi (rahimahullah) produced Jami' at-Tirmidhi, a collection of hadith. One of the six canonical collections of hadith (Kutub as-Sittah) from the Prophet's Sunnah, his collection is universally regarded (). In 46 books, it comprises about 4400 hadith (including repetitions).

He is Abdul-Samad Ibn Sa Ibn Sawrah Ibn Msa Ibn Ak Al-Sulam at-Tirmidh (209-279 AH/824-892 AD). In the year 209 A.H., during the rule of the Abbasid Khalifa Ma'mun al-Rashid, Imam at-Tirmidhi was born. Despite the magnificent achievements the Abbasid Caliphate made to Islam, it also brought many issues. Greek thought freely migrated into the Islamic realm. Up to the point when it designated the Mu'tazila school of thought as the official religion, this was fully approved by the government. The state would be resisted by anyone who disagreed with the Mu'tazila school of thinking. As Greek philosophy spread among the populace, many Muslims started striving to make sense of revelation and (this style of) reason.

 Tirmidhi's categories.

Just al-is Tirmidhi's broken down into four categories. He agrees with Bukhari and Muslims regarding the first hadith that has been categorically labeled as authentic. The second group consists of hadiths that fall under al-Tirmidhi, al-Nasa'i, and Abu Dawood at a lesser level than Bukhari and Muslim but nevertheless meet their standards. Third, the hadith was gathered because of a contradiction; in this instance, he explains the error. Fourthly, those hadiths that some fiqh experts have applied. [14]

Many people from all around the globe studied under Imam Tirmidhi. The most notable among them were Muhammad ibn Ahmad Shah Abdul 'Aziz, Abul Abbaas, and Haytham ibn Kulaib, who described Imam Tirmidhi in the following manner: "He had an extraordinary memory, and he had a very high level of piety and fear of Allah Ta'la. By the end of his life, he had lost his sight from crying so much out of fear of Allah." Imam Tirmidhi was an autonomous jurist, according to Ibn Taymiyya and Shah Waliullah (mujtahid).

Death:

Imam Tirmidhi passed away in the village of Bawag in the year 279 A.H. at the age of 70.

The title of this compilation is Al-Jami' al-Mukhtasar min as-Sunan 'an Rasulu Allah wa Ma'rifatu as-Sahih wa al-Ma'lul wa ma 'alaihi al-'amal, also known as Jami' at-Tirmidhi.
