How can the hadiths that mention different texts regarding Surat at-Tur be authentic, given this discrepancy?
The recitation of the verse: ﴿لَوْ كَانَ لِابْنِ آدَمَ وَادِيَانِ مِنْ مَالٍ لَابْتَغَى وَادِيًا ثَالِثًا، وَلَا يَمْلَأُ جَوْفَ ابْنِ آدَمَ إِلَّا التُّرَابُ﴾ [If the son of Adam had two valleys of wealth, he would desire a third, and nothing fills the belly of the son of Adam except dust] was abrogated. It was reported with different wordings because when it was abrogated, the Companions no longer focused on precisely recording it like the Quran. Rather, some narrated it by meaning or with leniency in wording, especially since its recitation and ruling were abrogated. It is also possible that the Prophet, peace and blessings be upon him, stated its content as a prophetic tradition, and its wording became mixed with the abrogated verse.
