Al-Husayn ibn Abi al-Sari al-Asqalani and Muhammad ibn Ismail narrated to us. They said: Waki narrated to us; Said ibn Bashir narrated to us, from Qatadah, from al-Hasan, from Samurah, who said: The Messenger of Allah (peace and blessings be upon him) said: “If the two parties with the right of choice make the sale, it belongs to the first.”

قَالَ قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ ـ صلى الله عليه وسلم ـ " إِذَا بَاعَ الْمُجِيزَانِ فَهُوَ لِلأَوَّلِ " .
Al-mujizan appears to refer to the two parties whose sale is subject to the option; the wording is concise and its exact scope is technical.
Does “the two parties with the right of choice” adequately convey al-mujizan?
