The questioner : It is narrated from Abu Hurayrah (may Allah be pleased with him) that he said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: Sahih al-Bukhari 6405 It is agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim. Question: Is this hadith authentic? And who are the most accurate narrators of the hadiths of the Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him)? Please inform us, may Allah reward you, and we offer you our sincere thanks.
The Shaykh : This hadith is authentic, thatSahih al-Bukhari 6405 because the favor of Allah is vast, and His giving, (Exalted and Majestic is He), is more beloved to Him than His withholding.
The questioner : Praise be to Allah.
The Shaykh : And the hadith is agreed upon by al-Bukhari and Muslim, as the questioner said, meaning it was narrated by al-Bukhari and Muslim. And I will add a benefit for the reader.
The questioner : Yes.
The Shaykh : It is the saying of the Messenger (may the prayer and peace of Allah be upon him) in the authentic hadith with which al-Bukhari concluded his Sahih:Sahih al-Bukhari 7563 So increase in it, my Muslim brother, "Subhan Allahi wa bihamdihi, Subhan Allahi al-Azim" (Glory be to Allah and His praise, Glory be to Allah the Magnificent), for they are two phrases that contain these great benefits, beloved to the Most Merciful, heavy in the scale, and they do not burden anyone because they are light on the tongue.
And the questioner asks: What is the most authentic of the hadiths? We say to him: The most authentic of the hadiths are those agreed upon by the imams and preservers, such as al-Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawud, al-Nasa'i, al-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, Imam Ahmad, and Imam Malik, and the like. So if these scholars agree upon it, it is the most authentic it can be. Then, in cases of singular narration, we say: The most authentic is al-Bukhari, then Muslim. So what they both agreed upon is the most authentic, and what al-Bukhari narrated alone is more authentic than what Muslim narrated alone, then what is according to the conditions of both of them, then what is according to the conditions of al-Bukhari, then what is according to the conditions of Muslim, and so on. The scholars arrange them in this order of strength and weakness. Yes.
The questioner : May Allah bless you. The listener, N.M. from al-Jawf, says.
Whoever says, 'Subhan Allah wa bihamdihi,' one hundred times a day, will be forgiven all his sins even if they were as much as the foam of the sea.
من قال: سبحان الله وبحمده في يوم مائة مرة حطت خطاياه وإن كانت مثل زبد البحرThe Shaykh : This hadith is authentic, that

The Shaykh : It is the saying of the Messenger (may the prayer and peace of Allah be upon him) in the authentic hadith with which al-Bukhari concluded his Sahih:
(There are) two words which are dear to the Beneficent (Allah) and very light (easy) for the tongue (to say), but very heavy in weight in the balance. They are: ''Subhan Allah wa-bi hamdihi'' and ''Subhan Allah Al-`Azim.
كلمتان حبيبتان إلى الرحمان، خفيفتان على اللسان، ثقيلتان في الميزان: سبحان الله وبحمده، سبحان الله العظيمAnd the questioner asks: What is the most authentic of the hadiths? We say to him: The most authentic of the hadiths are those agreed upon by the imams and preservers, such as al-Bukhari, Muslim, Abu Dawud, al-Nasa'i, al-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah, Imam Ahmad, and Imam Malik, and the like.
