Does the hadith “Were it not that I would burden my Ummah, I would have ordered them to use the siwak with every prayer” conflict with the narration “with every prayer”?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
Question:
Honorable Shaykh, the questioner says: It is mentioned in the hadith
Were it not hard on my ummah, I would order them to use the tooth-stick at the time of every prayer.لولا أن أشق على أمتي لأمرتهم بالسواك عند كل صلاة.
Sunan Abi Dawud 47Sahih (Al-Albani)
and in a narration “with every prayer.” Is there a conflict between them?

Answer:
No, there is no difference between them; it is not a conflict. The question should have been: Is there a difference between them? There is no difference, whether it is “with every prayer” or “at every prayer.”
