The meaning

What Sahih Muslim means in Islam

Muslim gathered all the chains of a hadith in one place instead of scattering them, which makes his book easier to study. He held that narrators living in the same period with the possibility of meeting is enough, without proof of an actual meeting. His introduction is a short treatise on hadith method and is still read on its own.
