Apostles, but the period of trials was prolonged and victory was delayed till the Apostles gave up all
hope of converting those of the people who disbelieved them and the Apostles thought that their
followers treated them as liars; thereupon Allah’s help came to them.
Sahih al-Bukhari 4489 (Book 65, Hadith 217)
The above hadith is from the Sahih al-Buhari collection of hadiths. Within the Islamic scholarly tradition, few works hold as much weight as Sahih al-Bukhari. This vast compilation, assembled by the Persian scholar al-Bukhārī circa 847, is a cornerstone of Sunni faith and practice. It is one of the six canonical hadith collections known collectively as the Kutub al-Sittah. Imam al-Bukhārī’s work is particularly celebrated for its author’s stringent criteria in verifying the chain of narration (isnad), resulting in a trusted body of over 7,500 hadiths organized into 97 distinct chapters that cover every aspect of life.
