Arabic hadith text
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا حَمَّادٌ، عَنْ أَيُّوبَ، عَنِ ابْنِ سِيرِينَ، أَنَّ أَنَسَ بْنَ مَالِكٍ، سُئِلَ هَلْ قَنَتَ رَسُولُ اللَّهِ صلى الله عليه وسلم فِي صَلاَةِ الصُّبْحِ قَالَ نَعَمْ . فَقِيلَ لَهُ قَبْلَ الرُّكُوعِ أَوْ بَعْدَهُ قَالَ بَعْدَ الرُّكُوعِ .
Translation
Qutaibah informed us: Hammad narrated to us, from Ayyub, from Ibn Sirin, that Anas ibn Malik was asked whether the Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) performed the qunut supplication in the Subh (morning) prayer. He replied, “Yes.” He was asked, “Was it before bowing or after?” He replied, “After bowing.”
Translation notes
أَخْبَرَنَا قُتَيْبَةُ،
The English witness omits the transmitters preceding Anas ibn Malik in the Arabic chain.
Should the English witness preserve the full chain of transmission?
