حَدَّثَنَا الْحُمَيْدِيُّ وَمُحَمَّدُ بْنُ عُبَيْدِ اللَّهِ قَالَا حَدَّثَنَا إِبْرَاهِيمُ بْنُ سَعْدٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ عَنْ مُحَمَّدِ بْنِ جُبَيْرِ بْنِ مُطْعِمٍ عَنْ أَبِيهِ قَالَأَتَتْ امْرَأَةٌ النَّبِيَّ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ فَأَمَرَهَا أَنْ تَرْجِعَ إِلَيْهِ قَالَتْ أَرَأَيْتَ إِنْ جِئْتُ وَلَمْ أَجِدْكَ كَأَنَّهَا تَقُولُ الْمَوْتَ قَالَ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ إِنْ لَمْ تَجِدِينِي فَأْتِي أَبَا بَكْرٍ
English Translation
Telah bercerita kepada kami [Al Humaidiy] dan [Muhammad bin 'Ubaidullah], keduanya berkata, telah bercerita kepada kami [Ibrahim bin Sa'ad] dari [bapaknya] dari [Muhammad bin Jubair bin Muth'im] dari [bapaknya] berkata; "Ada seorang wanita datang menemui Nabi shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam lalu beliau memerintahkan wanita itu agar kembali di lain waktu. Lalu wanita itu bertanya; "Seandainya aku datang nanti tapi tidak menemukan baginda?". Wanita itu sepertinya berkata tentang kematian (khawatir bila menjemput beliau). Maka shallallahu 'alaihi wasallam berkata: "Jika kamu tidak menemukan aku lagi, maka temuilah Abu Bakr".

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.
