Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنَا قَبِيصَةُ، حَدَّثَنَا سُفْيَانُ، عَنِ ابْنِ ذَكْوَانَ، عَنِ الأَعْرَجِ، عَنْ أَبِي هُرَيْرَةَ ـ رضى الله عنه ـ قَالَ كَانَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم يَدْعُو فِي الْقُنُوتِ ‏"‏ اللَّهُمَّ أَنْجِ سَلَمَةَ بْنَ هِشَامٍ، اللَّهُمَّ أَنْجِ الْوَلِيدَ بْنَ الْوَلِيدِ، اللَّهُمَّ أَنْجِ عَيَّاشَ بْنَ أَبِي رَبِيعَةَ، اللَّهُمَّ أَنْجِ الْمُسْتَضْعَفِينَ مِنَ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ، اللَّهُمَّ اشْدُدْ وَطْأَتَكَ عَلَى مُضَرَ، اللَّهُمَّ سِنِينَ كَسِنِي يُوسُفَ ‏"‏‏.‏

Translation

Abu Huraira reported: During qunut, the Prophet ﷺ used to supplicate: “O Allah, rescue Salama bin Hisham. O Allah, rescue al-Walid bin al-Walid. O Allah, rescue Ayyash bin Abi Rabiʿa. O Allah, rescue the vulnerable among the believers. O Allah, make Your pressure upon Mudar severe. O Allah, years like the years of Joseph.”

Translation notes
  • The English witness adds “of famine” and an explicit object for the final supplication; neither appears in the Arabic wording.

  • اللَّهُمَّ سِنِينَ كَسِنِي يُوسُفَ ‏"‏‏.

    The witness supplies “famine” and an object (“them”) that are not explicit in the Arabic.

    Should these explanations remain outside the translation unless supported by this occurrence?
