The answer

Examples of variations in readings (qira'at):

"Maliki Yawm Ad-Din" (Master of the Day of Judgment): Asim and Al-Kisa'i read it as "Malik" (with an alif), while the others read it as "Malik" (without an alif). "As-Sirat" (the Path): Ibn Kathir read it as "As-Sirat" (with a 'seen'), and Hamza read it with an 'ishmam' of the 'zay' (mixing the 'sad' with the 'zay'). "alayhim" (upon them): Hamza read the 'ha' with a 'dammah', Ibn Kathir and Nafi' read the 'ha' with a 'kasrah' and the 'meem' with a 'dammah' connected to a 'waw', and the others read the 'ha' with a 'kasrah' and the 'meem' with a 'sukoon'. "yu'minun" (they believe): Abu Amr and Warsh read it without a hamza as "yominoon," while the others read it with a hamza. "yukhadi'oon" (they deceive): Nafi', Ibn Kathir, and Abu Amr read it as "yukhadi'oon" (with an alif), while others read it as "yakhda'oon" (without an alif). "sayughlaboona wa yuhsharoona" (they will be overcome and gathered): Hamza and Al-Kisa'i read it with the 'ya' (for third person masculine plural), while the others read it with the 'ta' (for second person masculine plural) as "satughlaboona wa tuhsharoona."
