**Isnād:** The transmitted “Suwayd b. ʿAqalah” replaces the known name “Suwayd b. Ghafalah,” altering the narrator’s identification.
**Matn:** Differences between *gharad* (target) and *ʿarad*, and between *rūḥ* (soul or living being) and *rawḥ* (breeze/relief), change the apparent meaning.
Al-Nawawī identifies these textual corruptions and the transmitter’s implausible explanation. Comparative criticism matters because a few letters or vowels can reverse the sense; a familiar-looking phrase is not sufficient evidence of its accuracy.
