Sahih is an Islamic term that means authentic. It is commonly used to describe the authenticity of a Hadith.

Sunni Muslims use the term the "Two Sahihs" referring to Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, since they are considered to contain only Sahih Hadith. Similarly, the "Six Sahihs" refers to the "two Sahihs", and, in addition, the four other famous collections, being Abu Dawud, al-Tirmidhi, Ibn Majah and al-Nasa'i. Altogether, there are forty-nine books of authenticated hadith-collections, which include, apart from these six more famous ones, also the Muwatta' Imam Malik, Musnad Imam Abu Hanifah, Musnad Imam Shafi'i, Musnad Imam Ahmad bin Hanbal, Bayhaqi, Darimi, Dar Qutni, Jami' Kabir, Jami' Saghir, Mustadrak Hakim, etc.
