Concise Commentaries on Saheeh al-Bukhari
Question

                I am asking about commentaries on Saheeh al-Bukhari. I want to find the easiest book of commentary on al-Saheeh, concise and easy for one who is not a seeker of knowledge (Taalib ‘ilm).
Praise be to Allah.
    The 
    commentaries on Saheeh al-Bukhari are many and varied. For the most part 
    they are written for specialists and are difficult to understand for those 
    who are not specialized in the study of shar’i (Islamic legal) sciences. The 
    reason for that is that it is difficult to understand the way in which al-Bukhari 
    compiled his Saheeh, because he often paid attention to the number of 
    isnaads (chains of narration) and he repeated hadeeths (narrations) and 
    included many chapter headings, which may confuse both the ordinary reader 
    and the scholar.  

    Hence 
    the great scholar Ahmad ibn Ahmad ibn ‘Abd al-Lateef al-Zubaydi (893 AH) 
    summarized Saheeh al-Bukhari, omitting repeated isnaads and reports, and he 
    called his summary al-Tajreed al-Sareeh li Ahaadeeth al-Jaami’ al-Saheeh. 
    This has been printed in an edition edited by Ibraaheem Barakah, with a 
    brief commentary on these ahaadeeth (reports). 

    If a 
    non-specialist wants to read Saheeh al-Bukhari, he should read al-Zubaydi’s 
    abridgement of it, and then try to understand the ahaadeeth in it by means 
    of various commentaries, among the easiest of which are the following: 

    1-

    
    I’laam al-Sunan by al-‘Allaamah al-Khattaabi (388 AH), which is a brief 
    commentary on the Saheeh. 

    2-

    
    Haashiyat al-‘Allaamah al-Sindi ‘ala Saheeh al-Bukhari, which is a very 
    brief but beneficial commentary. 

    3-

    ‘Awn 
    al-Baari Sharh Tajreed al-Sareeh by Siddeeq Hasan Khan (1307 AH), which is a 
    commentary on al-Zubaydi’s abridgement, which he based on Fath al-Baari, so 
    it is like a summary thereof. 

    These 
    commentaries are amongst the shortest and easiest commentaries on al-Saheeh. 
    They deal with the meanings of the words and expressions used, and the 
    meanings of the hadeeth, and they do not deal with the isnaads and 
    problematic issues and subtleties. They are not difficult to read for most 
    people, although they sometimes indulge in discussing some linguistic 
    details and so on. The reader should overlook whatever he finds difficult to 
    understand. 

    But 
    it is the best of these commentaries for the non-specialist, and he can also 
    make use of some verbal commentaries on these books, such as that by Shaykh 
    Muhammad ibn Salih al-‘Uthaymeen (may Allah have mercy on him) on al-Saheeh, 
    and the commentary of Shaykh ‘Abd al-Kareem al-Khudayr (may Allah preserve 
    him) on the abridgment by al-Zubaydi. 

    We 
    ask Allah to make the book easy for the ordinary Muslim who reads it, and to 
    benefit more people by means of it.
