Q       Write a note on the important features of two “Sahih” collections
of Hadith.                                         [Expected question]

Sahih Bukhari and Sahih Muslim are called Sahih because the Ahadith in these collections are narrated by very pious people and they meet all standards of Isnad and Matn.

Both the books were compiled in around 250 Hijra. 
They are Musannaf collections that is Ahaditha are according to their subject matter. They are divided into chapters or books. 
If a Hadith is found in both the compilations, it is called "Agreed upon" or Muttafiq Eilaih".

He analyzed about six hundred thousand Ahadith and selected 7397 most reliable Ahadith. 
Sahih Bukhari is divided into 97 books under different headings.

Sahih Muslim was compiled by Imam Muslim Bin Al Hajjaj. 
He analyzed a lot of Ahaditha and selected 12000 Ahadith.
(For the other four compilations, read the text books
