Parallel reading

الأذلعي، أهمله الجوهري.
Al-Adhla'i, Imam Jawhari neglected it.
هو الضخم من الأيور، الطويل، وليس بتصحيف، نص الخارزنجي في تكملة العين: الأذلعي: وصف للذكر إذا كان فيه شبه ورم.
It is the large, long one of the penises, and it is not a misspelling. Kharazangi stated in Takmilat al-'Ayn: Al-Adhla'i: a description for the male organ when it has a semblance of swelling.
وحكي بالغين معجمة، وبالدال والعين غير معجمتين أيضا.
And it was narrated with the voiced ghayn, and also with the dal and the 'ayn without dots.
قال بعض المصحفين: الأذلعي، بالعين: الضخم من الأيور الطويل.
Some of those who misspell said: Al-Adhla'i, with the 'ayn: the large, long one of the penises.
والصواب الأذلغي، بالغين المعجمة لا غير، وهكذا حكى الصاغاني أيضا بتصحيفه، فقول المصنف: وليس بتصحيف، محل نظر، فإن الخارزنجي ليس بثقة عندهم، وإياه عنى الأزهري بقوله: قال بعض المصحفين. فتأمل.
And the correct pronunciation is Al-Adhlaghi, with the voiced ghayn and no other. And thus Sagani also narrated it with his misspelling. Therefore, the author's statement: 'and it is not a misspelling,' is subject to consideration, for Kharazangi is not considered reliable by them, and Al-Azhari meant him by his saying: 'Some of those who misspell said.' Reflect on this.
