حَدَّثَنَا يَحْيَى بْنُ بُكَيْرٍ حَدَّثَنَا اللَّيْثُ عَنْ يُونُسَ عَنْ ابْنِ شِهَابٍ عَنْ أَبِي سَلَمَةَ بْنِ عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ أَنَّ جَابِرَ بْنَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ رَضِيَ اللَّهُ عَنْهُمَا قَالَكُنَّا مَعَ رَسُولِ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ نَجْنِي الْكَبَاثَ وَإِنَّ رَسُولَ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ قَالَ عَلَيْكُمْ بِالْأَسْوَدِ مِنْهُ فَإِنَّهُ أَطْيَبُهُ قَالُوا أَكُنْتَ تَرْعَى الْغَنَمَ قَالَ وَهَلْ مِنْ نَبِيٍّ إِلَّا وَقَدْ رَعَاهَا

Telah bercerita kepada kami [Yahya bin Bukair] telah bercerita kepada kami [Al Laits] dari [Yunus] dari [Ibnu Sihab] dari [Abu Salamah bin 'Abdur Rahman] bahwa [Jabir bin 'Abdullah radliallahu 'anhuma] berkata; "Kami pernah bersama Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam memetik akar pohon (al-arak, biasanya untuk siwak) dan saat itu Rasulullah shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam bersabda: "Petiklah yang berwarna hitam karena ia yang paling baik". Mereka bertanya; "Apakah baginda dahulu mengembala kambing?". Beliau menjawab: "Tidak ada seorang Nabi pun melainkan dia pernah mengembala kambing".

Imam al-Bukhari dedicated 16 years to compiling Sahih al-Bukhari, selecting approximately 7,275 hadiths from over 600,000 narrations he examined. His strict conditions for accepting a hadith — requiring narrator continuity, reliable memory, and confirmed meeting between narrators — make it the most rigorously authenticated hadith collection in Islamic scholarship.
Imam al-Bukhari would perform ghusl and pray two rak'ahs before recording each hadith. Sahih al-Bukhari is universally regarded as the most authentic book after the Quran.
