Sahih Muslim 52j
Arabic hadith text
وَحَدَّثَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ، وَزُهَيْرُ بْنُ حَرْبٍ، قَالاَ حَدَّثَنَا جَرِيرٌ، عَنِ الأَعْمَشِ، بِهَذَا الإِسْنَادِ وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ " رَأْسُ الْكُفْرِ قِبَلَ الْمَشْرِقِ " .
Translation
Qutaybah ibn Sa'id and Zuhayr ibn Harb narrated to us; they said: Jarir narrated to us, from al-A'mash, with this chain, but he did not mention, ‘The head of disbelief is toward the east.’
Translation notes
وَلَمْ يَذْكُرْ " رَأْسُ الْكُفْرِ قِبَلَ الْمَشْرِقِ "
The Arabic explicitly notes omission of this clause in the variant, while the English witness only summarizes the same chain and does not mention the omission.
Should this difference in the witness's abbreviated scope be tracked for the variant?
