Summary of Sahih Muslim Hadith 2297b
This narration is another chain for the same report about the Cistern, but it notes an important wording point. It says the hadith was narrated through al-A'mash with the same chain of transmitters, but the phrase, They are my companions, they are my companions, is not mentioned. That means this entry is mainly about transmission and wording, not a separate new scene. The topic still relates to Al-Hawd and the warning about people being kept away because of what they did or introduced after the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم in the connected report. For search use, phrases like Sahih Muslim 2297b, Cistern hadith wording, and companions at the Lake Fount fit this narration. A careful explanation should note the missing phrase without building extra claims from it.
What we learn from this hadith
- This report is tied to the same Cistern narration.
- It notes that one phrase is not mentioned in this wording.
- The text is mainly about a wording difference in transmission.
- The related warning remains connected to what came after the Prophet صلى الله عليه وسلم.
