Islamic Ideology
Wrongs From The “Right” Bukhari
By Dr. Shabbir Ahmed

The Hadith Collection by “Imam” Abu Abdullah Muhammad bin Ismail Bukhari is considered by Mullahs and their blind followers as the most authentic book on earth after the Quran. Let’s examine it. Most of the references given here belong to Bukhari published by Madina Publishing Company, Karachi, 1982, Printer Hamid & Co. It is nice to see that this version of Bukhari gives us the complete original Arabic text as well which I have checked personally. The translator into Urdu is “Maulana” Abdul Hakim Khan Shahjahanpuri. For the sake of brevity, only the relevant lines have been selected without compromising the meanings and context in the least. Vol = Volume. P or Pg = Page number. # = Hadith or Baab (Chapter) number. Another example, 2:76 would mean Vol 2, page 76. When referring to the Quran, 2:76 will mean Surah 2 verse 76.

Please remember that popular books have many different publishers. That causes some variation in page numbers but, invariably, a little effort can lead the reader to the desired references. It is always of great help to go to the relevant, stated chapter and search the narratives given in The Criminals of Islam.

Please know that an outstanding scholar of Islam, Ubaidullah Sindhi concedes, "I cannot teach Bukhari Hadith to any youngster, or to a non-Muslim because of shame." (Preface to his Tafseer, Ilham-ur-Rahman). Let’s explore why he said this …
