Inoles is primarily concerned with the fact that both hadiths are interpretations. The two hadiths presented are Shia hadiths, yet they contradict one another. In order to try understanding how or why hadiths that are supposed to be consistent throughout time are directly contradicting each other, we must understand that they are both interpretations and translations. Interpreters have different backgrounds and biases, which lead them to sway their understandings and teachings of such ahadith, and we must keep in mind that these are not the original words and meanings.
