Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success. A questioner says: There are those who curse and defame the books of al-Bukhari and Muslim, claiming that they were written decades after the death of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him), and that perhaps they contain something [incorrect]. He asks: What is the ruling on this statement, and how should one respond to it?
Answer:
This is a false statement. The most authentic book after the Book of Allah is Sahih al-Bukhari, and after Sahih al-Bukhari is Sahih Muslim. It is not permissible to cast doubt on them, and no one casts doubt on them except an atheist. Yes.
