The answer

Abu Abdullah Muhammad ibn Ismail al-Bukhari was a muhaddith (scholar of ) who was born an orphan in Bukhara. He memorized the Quran and began seeking hadith at an early age, traveling extensively in pursuit of knowledge. Among his most prominent works is " al-Bukhari." He faced two trials: the first with Al-Hafiz Muhammad ibn Yahya al-Dhuhli concerning the issue of al-lafz bil-Qur'an (the utterance of the Quran), where he affirmed that the Word of Allah is uncreated. The second was with the governor of Bukhara, who wanted him to bring his books to him. Al-Bukhari refused, and as a result, he was exiled. He passed away in Khartank on the night of Eid al-Fitr in the year 256 AH, at the age of 62.
