(1) MSS Z and H read yaqaʿ, with an initial ya; D and K have taqaʿ, beginning with ta. The word appears twice in T, is left without diacritical dots in A, and A and H also insert the preposition fi (“in”). (2) MS T records the form al-qatirani. Abū al-Faḍl Ibn Ṭāhir al-Qaysarānī states in al-Ansāb al-Muttafiqa, p. 122: “It is a nisba to Qutwān in Kufa, a locality there and not a tribe; among those so designated is the well-known traditionist Abū al-Haytham Khālid b. Mukhlad al-Qutwānī.” Al-Laqānī adds in Qaḍāʾ al-Waṭar, p. 1591: “Pronounced with a fatha on the qāf, tā, and wāw. The name refers to two places—one in Samarqand and the other in Kufa; several people were linked to the one in Kufa, including this man.” (3) MS B has yulaqab, with a single (undoubled) qāf and a fatha; H gives the same form with a kasra; Z reads wa tulqab. The present edition follows H. (4) D records al-Qutwānī, whereas T has al-Qaṭirānī. (5) MSS D and L, together with a marginal note in Y, add: “and the nisbas whose inward sense differs from their outward wording,” a reading noted by al-Laqānī in Qaḍāʾ al-Waṭar, p. 1591. (6) MSS A, H, T, and K, as well as a marginal note on L, read wa min asfal (“and from below”) in place of wa asfala (“and below”). (7) MS J has bi-l-ʿitq (“by manumission”); its margin reads bi-l-riqq (“by slavery”). (8) MS B gives aw bi-l-ḥalif (“or through oath-alliance”), which is erroneous; W has wa bi-l-ḥalif (“and through oath-alliance”). (9) MS H adds aw al-Islam (“or through Islam”).
