Arabic hadith text

حَدَّثَنِي هَارُونُ بْنُ سَعِيدٍ الأَيْلِيُّ، حَدَّثَنَا ابْنُ وَهْبٍ، حَدَّثَنِي أَبُو صَخْرٍ، عَنِ ابْنِ قُسَيْطٍ، عَنْ عُبَيْدِ بْنِ جُرَيْجٍ، قَالَ حَجَجْتُ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ - رضى الله عنهما - بَيْنَ حَجٍّ وَعُمْرَةٍ ثِنْتَىْ عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ مِنْكَ أَرْبَعَ خِصَالٍ ‏.‏ وَسَاقَ الْحَدِيثَ بِهَذَا الْمَعْنَى إِلاَّ فِي قِصَّةِ الإِهْلاَلِ فَإِنَّهُ خَالَفَ رِوَايَةَ الْمَقْبُرِيِّ فَذَكَرَهُ بِمَعْنًى سِوَى ذِكْرِهِ إِيَّاهُ ‏.‏

Translation

Harun ibn Sa'id al-Ayli narrated to me: Ibn Wahb narrated to us: Abu Sakhr narrated to me, from Ibn Qusayt, from Ubayd ibn Jurayj, who said: I performed Hajj and Umrah with Abdullah ibn Umar ibn al-Khattab (may Allah be pleased with them both) twelve times. I said: ‘Abu Abd al-Rahman, I have seen four characteristics in you.’ He related the hadith with this meaning, except for the account of entering ihram: that differed from the al-Maqburi report, and he described it in a different way.

Translation notes
  • قَالَ حَجَجْتُ مَعَ عَبْدِ اللَّهِ بْنِ عُمَرَ بْنِ الْخَطَّابِ - رضى الله عنهما - بَيْنَ حَجٍّ وَعُمْرَةٍ ثِنْتَىْ عَشْرَةَ مَرَّةً فَقُلْتُ يَا أَبَا عَبْدِ الرَّحْمَنِ لَقَدْ رَأَيْتُ مِنْكَ أَرْبَعَ خِصَالٍ ‏.

    The Arabic says that the ihram account differed from the al-Maqburi version and was related with another meaning; the English witness renders this comparison differently.

    Can this transmission difference be checked against the cited parallel report before choosing a more specific rendering?
