Mukhtaṣar Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī by Imām Ibn Abī Jamrah al-Andalusī is the most celebrated summary of Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī, skillfully condensing one of the most authentic and comprehensive collections of prophetic narrations. Imām Ibn Abī Jamrah, a distinguished Andalusian scholar, meticulously selected key ḥadīths from the extensive corpus, streamlining it into an accessible format without compromising authenticity or depth.
When Ibn Abī Jamrah observed a declining enthusiasm in preserving the chains of transmission, he resolved to compile an abridged collection. His goal was to produce a concise work, easy to memorize and rich in practical benefits. Consequently, he carefully selected nearly three hundred essential ḥadīths from Ṣaḥīḥ al-Bukhārī.
This collection comprises essential narrations that encapsulate the core of Imām Bukhārī’s effort. It effectively captures the essence of the Ṣaḥīḥ’s monumental standing, serving as a practical gateway without navigating the extensive original collection.
It is a cornerstone work, respected across generations for its depth, clarity, and enduring relevance to contemporary spiritual and ethical questions.
This superb IGP edition contains both the voweled Arabic & English. The Arabic has been edited from five manuscripts by Dar al-Minhaj.
