Sallam brother Joseph
Hope. All is well.
I was just thinking,about Bukhari and all the nonsense he brought. What I am interested to know if you can help, is why did HE and some of the others feel they had the need to create these books and stories?
As we know these story tellers came some 200 plus years after the prophet, we're people,ie the Muslims of the time,already in 'chaos' ,had people already lost their way and started going astray and in that case before the hahiths came about? Surely, the Muslims of that time would have spoken the exact language of the Quran and not had any difficulty understanding the Quran, ie salat, zakat, hajj,shahada etc . Thinking about it,I am baffled why people seemed so lost to have come up with these stories,UnLess Bukhari and co, made up most of it by themselves??
Hope you can help as this is something that really intrigues me,
Peace
