Abstract:

Al-Jami al-Sahih, written by Bukhari, who was born in Bukhara and died in Samarkand and who became the zenith of the hadith knowledge by writing the book that is considered the most reliable book after the Qur’an,the Book of Allah, reveals his faqih identity apart from his authority in hadith. Because he used such a method that reveals his views on both fiqh and usul in the chapter titles of his book, which are expressed as tarâjim. Because of Bukhari’s unique method of istinbat (revealing the meaning), it is said that “Bukhari’s fiqh lies in the Bâb (chapter) titles.” So much so that the scholars whom he was contemporary with emphasized his faqih identity as well as being a great muhaddith. In this study, our aim is to identify and analyze Bukhari’s, who is the best representative of Ahl al-Hadith in the third century of Hijrah and who is accepted as the defender of fiqh al-hadith, procedural thought system based on the integrity of the Qur’an and Sunnah. Because Bukhari is a faqih muhaddith who has a methodology that defends the natural/obligatory relationship between the two sources, as he emphasizes the source authority of the Qur’an and the Sunnah by saying “I do not know anything that is needed but not found in the Qur’an and the Sunnah”.
