- Abstract
The Imam Muhammad b. Ismâ'īl's work named Cāmiu's-Sahīh is regarded as the most reliable source after the Qur'ān. It has gained this situation thanks to his meticulosity in collecting the authentic traditions. The Muslim community has appreciated its value and had a chance to learn their Prophet's deeds and words from this realible source. This reliability has resulted in its being enthroned by the Ottoman community, and consequently, a teaching tradition peculiar to Buhârî has become established. The scholars who recited Buhārī at mosques had been named as Buhārīhān. This tradition had been spread by the hand of the government from the mosques to the tombs, and from the libraries to the offical establishments. The government had issued directions Buharî to be read from cover to cover in hard times. Financial support had been provided from the foundations and Buhârîhân were given salary. The tradition of reading Buhārī, one of the main elements of sessions held at mosques which were dynamics of Ottoman community life, is one of the unique practice of Ottoman scholarship.
