The six most authentic collections of Hadith by the six famous imams are together called Sihah

them is Muhammad bin Ismail al-Bukhari, the author of Sahih Bukhari. He was born on July 19, 810
at Bukhara in Central Asia and died on August 31, 870 at a place known as Khartank, near
Samarkhand.

Next among them is Muslim bin Hajjah al-Nishapuri who was born in Nishapur in Iran, in 206 AH/821
CE and died in the same city in 261 AH or 874 CE. His Sahih Muslim is second in authenticity, next
to that of Bukhari.

Imam of Hadeeth, was born in 202 AH. He was a Persian but of Arab descent. He died at Basra on
Friday in the month of Shawwal 275 H or 888/9 CE.

Imaam Tirmizi was born in the year 209 AH during the reign of the Abbasid Khalifa Mamoon al
Rasheed. He died in the year 279 AH in a village called Bawag at the ripe age of 70. Fifth in line of
