His statement: (to his left or under his left foot) Is the "or" here for variation?

Machine translationRead the Arabic original
The questioner : He said:
Let him spit to his left or beneath his left foot. فليتفل عن يساره أو تحت قدمه اليسرى
Sunan an-Nasa'i 725Sahih (Darussalam)
And the "or" is for variation. If he spits to his left, is it pure in the mosque?

The Shaykh : The apparent meaning is that it is so even if he is in the mosque, but we told you that if he is in the mosque, the last one is the one who is far from the edge and the wall is short.

The questioner : Okay, what if he is in the middle?

The Shaykh : No, if he is in the middle, it has come in the hadith
Spitting in the Masjid is a sin البصاق في المسجد خطيئة
Sunan an-Nasa'i 723Sahih (Darussalam)
. He should spit in his garment, not with the variation, because it is possible that he is in the mosque and spits to his left in the manner we mentioned.
