أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ، قَالَ حَدَّثَنَا عَبْدُ اللَّهِ بْنُ الْمُبَارَكِ، عَنْ سُفْيَانَ، عَنْ سِمَاكٍ، عَنْ عِكْرِمَةَ، عَنِ ابْنِ عَبَّاسٍ، أَنَّ بَعْضَ، أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم اغْتَسَلَتْ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ فَتَوَضَّأَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِفَضْلِهَا فَذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ " إِنَّ الْمَاءَ لاَ يُنَجِّسُهُ شَىْءٌ " .
Suwayd ibn Nasr informed us: 'Abd Allah ibn al-Mubarak narrated to us, from Sufyan, from Simak, from 'Ikrimah, from Ibn 'Abbas, that one of the wives of the Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) performed the ritual bath after major impurity. The Prophet then performed ablution using the water she had left over. She mentioned this to him, and he said: Nothing makes water impure.
Translation notes

أَخْبَرَنَا سُوَيْدُ بْنُ نَصْرٍ،
The English witness omits Suwayd ibn Nasr, Abd Allah ibn al-Mubarak, Sufyan, Simak, and Ikrimah from the chain.
Please confirm the transliteration of the transmitters' names.
أَزْوَاجِ النَّبِيِّ صلى الله عليه وسلم اغْتَسَلَتْ مِنَ الْجَنَابَةِ فَتَوَضَّأَ النَّبِيُّ صلى الله عليه وسلم بِفَضْلِهَا فَذَكَرَتْ ذَلِكَ لَهُ فَقَالَ " إِنَّ الْمَاءَ لاَ يُنَجِّسُهُ شَىْءٌ " .
The cross-reference footnote occurs only in the English witness and is absent from Arabic.
Should this English-only cross-reference be omitted from the Arabic-based translation?
