A collection of the teachings of Muhammad and
stories about his life, regarded by Muslims
as a guide to living second only to the
Koran. The teachings were at first
transmitted orally, but this led to a large
number of Hadiths whose origin was in doubt;
later, scholars such as Muhammad al-Bukhari
(810-870) collected together those believed
to be authentic, and these collections form
the Hadith accepted by Muslims today.
