This One Number Destroys the Hadith Narrative

Muslims often claim that Imam al-Bukhari collected and examined 600,000 hadiths before compiling his famous Sahih al-Bukhari. But is that number even remotely believable? In this video we put the claim under a microscope.

Using simple math and realistic time calculations—daily hours, years of life, time for prayer, travel, and teaching—we test whether one human being could actually hear, memorize, write down, and evaluate six hundred thousand individual reports. Spoiler: the numbers don’t add up.

This is not just about math; it’s about how exaggerated claims become central to the Islamic narrative. If the foundations of Sahih al-Bukhari are mathematically impossible, what does that say about the reliability of the hadith tradition as a whole?

Watch as we break down the timeline, do the calculations, and reveal why this mathematical mistake raises serious questions for Islamic apologetics.
