Dear reader, I have noticed people have become weaker in memorizing - though
there are plenty of books - due to the long chains of transmission. With this in
mind I decided to extract hadiths from the most authentic books and make an
abridgement of Prophetic sayings according to its need, and make an
abridgement of the chains with the exception of the first transmitters in order to
ease their memorization, if Allah, the High, wills. Therefore I chose the reference
of Bukhari because it is the most authentic and because he, may Allah, the High
have mercy upon him, was among the good people. Allah accepted the
supplication of Imam Bukhari who also supplicated for the reader of his
reference. Indeed, I have met many judges who are knowledgeable and well
traveled, as well as the masters of good virtue who said that Imam Bukhari's
book, when read during times of hardship, the hardship is removed and also that
it has been safety from being drowned in a sinking ship. So I received the
blessing of the Prophetic sayings so that the blindness of rusty hearts may be by
the favor of Allah, removed and that stern trials that lie layer upon layer on the
heart might be eased and that Allah willing by bearing the glorified Prophetic
sayings it can be saved from drowning in the oceans of bad innovation that are
contrary to the spirit of Islam.
