Sources differ on the exact number of hadiths in Sahih al-Bukhari, with definitions of ''[[hadith]]'' varying from a prophetic tradition or ''[[sunnah]]'', or a narration of that tradition. Experts have estimated the number of full-''[[Hadith terminology|isnad]]'' narrations in the Sahih at 7,563, with the number reducing to around 2,600 without considerations to repetitions or different versions of the same ''hadith.''

=== Manuscripts & | Each version of the ''Sahih'' is named by its narrator. [[Ibn Hajar al-Asqalani]] in his book ''Nukat'' asserts the number of narrations is the same in each version. There are many books that noted differences between the different versions, the best known being ''[[Fath al-Bari]]''. The version transmitted by Muhammad ibn Yusuf al-Firabri (d. 932), a trusted student of Bukhari, is the most famous version of the Sahih al-Bukhari today. All modern printed version are derived from this version. [[Al-Khatib al-Baghdadi]] quoted al-Firabri in ''History of Baghdad'': "About seventy thousand people heard ''Sahih Bukhari'' with me." al-Firabri is not the only transmitter of Sahih al-Bukhari. Many others narrated the book, including Ibrahim ibn Ma'qal (d. 907), Hammad ibn Shakir (d. 923), Mansur Burduzi (d. 931) and Husain Mahamili (d. 941).<ref>{{Cite web |last=Ahmed |first=Hussain |date=2020-07-17 |title=Why Imam al-Firabri: The student of Imam al-Bukhari and transmitter of his Sahih was trustworthy (thiqa) |url=https://www.darultahqiq.com/why-imam-al-firabri-the-student-of-imam-al-bukhari-and-transmitter-of-his-sahih-was-trustworthy-thiqa/ |access-date=2022-08-12 |website=Darul Tahqiq |language=en-US}}</ref> | ||

This way, the [[isnad|isnad (chain of narration)]] would be traceable and also have multiple routes back to the teacher. | The Orientalist Manjana said in Cambridge in 1936 that the oldest manuscript he had come across up to that point was written in 984 CE/370 AH, according to the narration of al-Mirwazi from al-Farbari<ref>See Tareekh at-Turaath by Fu’aad Sizkeen (1/228).</ref> The oldest full manuscript which was printed by ISAM is from 1155/550 AH.<ref>EL-CÂMİ‘U’S-SAHÎHU’L-MÜSNEDÜ’L-MUHTASAR MİN HADÎSİ RASÛLİLLÂH SALLALLÂHU ALEYHİ VE SELLEM SAHÎH-İ BUHÂRÎ – Tıpkıbasım, İSAM, İstanbul 2018</ref> As is the norm in [[hadith studies]] Bukhari would have recited his Sahih to a large number of his students who would not only listen to it, but memorise it word for word from him and copy it in its entirety.
