The answer

The commentaries on al-Bukhari are numerous, and it is difficult for non-specialists to comprehend them due to Imam al-Bukhari's method of repeating hadiths and having multiple chapter headings. Therefore, al-Zubaydi abridged Sahih al-Bukhari in his book "Al-Tajrid al-Sarih li Ahadith al-Jami' al-Sahih," which is suitable for non-specialists. Non-specialists can also refer to commentaries such as "A'lam al-Sunan" by al-Khattabi, the commentary of al-Sindi, and "Awn al-Bari Sharh al-Tajrid al-Sarih" by Siddiq Khan, as these commentaries are easy and concise. Furthermore, audio commentaries can be utilized, such as the explanations by Sheikh Muhammad ibn Salih al-Uthaymeen and Sheikh Abd al-Karim al-Khudair on al-Zubaydi's abridgement.
