The questioner:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success, if the author (may Allah have mercy on him) says “and in the Sahih,” does he mean Sahih al-Bukhari or Sahih Muslim?
The Shaykh:
It varies. If he says “in the Sahih,” it includes both Sahihs or one of them. It is possible that it refers to the meanings, and one should refer to the sources. Yes.
The presenter:
Honorable Shaykh, may Allah grant you success.
The Shaykh:
And his intention is the authentic hadith. This is the intention of the Shaykh (may Allah have mercy on him), whether it is agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim, or al-Bukhari narrated it alone, or Muslim narrated it alone.
