أَخْبَرَنَا عَبْدُ اللهِ، قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنَا حَيْوَةُ بْنُ شُرَيْحٍ قَالَ: أَخْبَرَنِي أَبُو هَانِئٍ الْخَوْلاَنِيُّ، عَنْ أَبِي عَلِيٍّ الْجَنْبِيِّ، عَنْ فَضَالَةَ، أَنَّ رَسُولَ اللهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم قَالَ: يُسَلِّمُ الْفَارِسُ عَلَى الْمَاشِي، وَالْمَاشِي عَلَى الْقَائِمِ، وَالْقَلِيلُ عَلَى الْكَثِيرِ.

يُسَلِّمُ الْفَارِسُ عَلَى الْمَاشِي
The witness is only a cross-reference; this Arabic variant specifies that the walker greets someone standing.
Should the full variant be supplied in place of the cross-reference?
