This digital application provides swift access to the scholarly works and biographies of the sect's prominent figures.

In the name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful

Technological advancements have become integral to modern life. To maintain relevance in a globalized world, those possessing knowledge must embrace modernity. This application preserves a vital scientific heritage, making it readily accessible to a wider audience.

The Heritage Revival Center at the al-Abbas's shrines houses a significant collection of scholarly works. While individual efforts have preserved portions of this rich resource through print, a comprehensive digital approach has been lacking.

Therefore, we present this electronic application, designed to serve both specialists and heritage enthusiasts. It facilitates research and exploration of the lives and works of the sect's scholars with unprecedented ease.

The application offers the book in three formats:

1. A text-based format, closely mirroring the original publication.
2. A digital replica of the printed book.
3. A unique feature: a digital image of the author's handwritten manuscript. This allows users to verify potential typographical errors, addressing inconsistencies in previously published versions.

Despite its simplicity, this application offers several key advantages for researchers:

1. Independent access to each of the three book formats.
2. Comprehensive search capabilities across the entire encyclopedia or specific sections (standard and advanced search options).
3. Text copying and sharing functionality.
4. Printing capabilities for all three formats.
5. Simultaneous viewing of text and printed versions, with adjustable zoom and synchronized page navigation.
6. Comprehensive indices of translators, searchable at both volume and encyclopedia levels.
7. Bookmarking functionality for all three formats.
8. Annotation capabilities for all three formats.

In conclusion, we express our gratitude to all who contributed to this project: Sheikh Agha Buzurk al-Tharani (may Allah have mercy on him) for his significant contributions to typesetting, transcription, and printing; those who preserved and published the manuscript; and the development team for their tireless efforts. May Allah reward them all abundantly.
