Sahih Muslim 1225a
وَحَدَّثَنَا سَعِيدُ بْنُ مَنْصُورٍ، وَابْنُ أَبِي عُمَرَ، جَمِيعًا عَنِ الْفَزَارِيِّ، - قَالَ سَعِيدٌ حَدَّثَنَا مَرْوَانُ بْنُ مُعَاوِيَةَ، - أَخْبَرَنَا سُلَيْمَانُ التَّيْمِيُّ، عَنْ غُنَيْمِ بْنِ قَيْسٍ، قَالَ سَأَلْتُ سَعْدَ بْنَ أَبِي وَقَّاصٍ - رضى الله عنه - عَنِ الْمُتْعَةِ، فَقَالَ فَعَلْنَاهَا وَهَذَا يَوْمَئِذٍ كَافِرٌ بِالْعُرُشِ . يَعْنِي بُيُوتَ مَكَّةَ .
Saeed ibn Mansur and Ibn Abi Umar narrated to us, both from al-Fazari. Saeed said: Marwan ibn Muawiya narrated to us: Sulayman al-Taymi narrated to us, from Ghunaym ibn Qays, who said: I asked Saad ibn Abi Waqqas (may Allah be pleased with him) about tamattu. He said: We did it, while this man—Muawiya, according to the wording of one transmission—was then an unbeliever among the houses of Mecca.
Translation notes
فَقَالَ فَعَلْنَاهَا وَهَذَا يَوْمَئِذٍ كَافِرٌ بِالْعُرُشِ .
The Arabic says “this” was then an unbeliever in the houses; the person is not named in this wording. A related transmission explicitly identifies him as Muawiya.
Should the name Muawiya be supplied here on the basis of the related transmission, or should the Arabic deictic wording be retained?
