The genius of Imam Bukhari and his innovations in classification

Abstract

The researcher demonstrated a large part of Imam Al-Bukhari's innovations and his genius in selecting his works on faith, Sharia, and ethics. He also demonstrated and discussed the justifications and explanations of some of those interested in his heritage and his actions in his works in general, and his collection in particular. The result was the validity of what was attributed to him of these justifications, which truly demonstrates that he was a genius.

He explained that he was an imam who had made an effort to classify weak narrators, and that he had collected the pillars of religion from the authentic Sunnah in various books, and that he had a methodology for absorbing the opposition, and that he had great caution in narration, transmission, and explanation.

The conclusion was that he was a brilliant and innovative imam, without a doubt, and anyone who attacked him did not know him or his works. Had he known him, he would have been fair, except for those who were enemies of the religion.
