Arabic hadith text

وَعَنْهُ قَالَ: قَالَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صَلَّى اللَّهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسلم: «الأصابعُ سواءٌ والأسنانُ سواءٌ الثَنِيَّةُ وَالضِّرْسُ سَوَاءٌ هَذِهِ وَهَذِهِ سَوَاءٌ» . رَوَاهُ أَبُو دَاوُد

Translation

He reported that the Messenger of God said: ‘The fingers are equal, and the teeth are equal. The incisor and the molar are equal. This and this are equal.’ Abu Dawud transmitted it.

Translation notes
  • The English witness adds two explanatory footnotes about whether fingers includes toes and what this and this refers to; these are absent from the Arabic text.
