Kutub al-Sittah (Arabic: ٱلْكُتُب ٱلسِّتَّة, romanized: al-Kutub al-Sitta, lit. 'the Six Books'), also known as al-Sihah al-Sitta (Arabic: الصحاح الستة, romanized: al-Ṣiḥāḥ al-Sitta, lit. 'the Authentic Six') are the six canonical hadith collections of Sunni Islam.
In Sunni Islam there are six major authentic hadith collections known as the Kutub al-Sittah (six books) [60] or al-Sihah al-Sittah (the authentic six). The two "most famous" 'Authentic' ( Sahih ) ḥadīth collections are those of Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim — known as the sahihayn (two sahih).
Other Primary/Major Collections (Primary Hadith books are those books which are collected and written by author or their students themselves).

The names of the biography subjects are arranged in alphabetical order in contrast to the original work. Further, one of al-Mizzi's gifted pupils, Al-Dhahabi, summarised his teacher's work and produced two abridgements: a longer one called Tadhhib al-Tahdhib and a shorter one called Al-Kashif fi Asma' Rijal al-Kutub al-Sittah.

Al-Mujtaba (English: the selected) has 5,758 hadiths, including repeated narrations, which the author selected from his larger work, As-Sunan al-Kubra. Within Kutub al-Sittah, it is considered the most authentic book of hadith (narrations of Muhammad) after the Sahihayn (Sahih al-Bukhari & Sahih Muslim) by most scholars of hadith. [3]
The book contains almost three thousand (3000) hadiths according to Maktaba Shamila. [3] His work is commonly known as Ṣaḥiḥ Ibn Khuzaymah.
