Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا حُسَيْنُ بْنُ عَلِيٍّ الْعِجْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا وَكِيعٌ، عَنِ الْحَسَنِ بْنِ صَالِحٍ، عَنِ السُّدِّيِّ، فِي ذِي الْقُرْبَى قَالَ هُمْ بَنُو عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ‏.‏

Al-Suddi explained the ‘close relatives’ as Banu ‘Abd al-Muttalib.

Notes and open questions — unreviewed

  • This is an explanatory statement attributed to al-Suddi. It names Banu ‘Abd al-Muttalib, in contrast to the preceding hadith reports, which use Banu al-Muttalib.

  • فِي ذِي الْقُرْبَى قَالَ هُمْ بَنُو عَبْدِ الْمُطَّلِبِ ‏.

    This narrator’s gloss identifies the close relatives as Banu ‘Abd al-Muttalib, while the preceding hadith reports allocate the share to Banu al-Muttalib.

    Should an editorial note preserve this difference between al-Suddi’s gloss and the wording of the preceding reports?
