• Ṭarīq (طریق): One transmission chain of a Hadith.
• Ṭuruq (طرق): More than one chain of the same Hadith.
• Two chains may share some narrators and still be distinct ṭuruq.
• Counting narrators or translations is not the same as counting ṭuruq.
You can now compare relevant parts of two given chains and identify where their transmitter sequences differ.
