This digital application provides swift access to the scholarly works and biographies of the sect's leading figures.
In the Name of Allah, the Most Gracious, the Most Merciful
Driven by the demands of modern life and global cultural exchange, this application leverages technology to preserve and disseminate invaluable scholarly heritage. The Heritage Revival Center at the al-Abbas's shrine houses a significant collection of works, yet much of this rich resource remains underutilized in print form.
To address this, we've developed this electronic application, a valuable tool for scholars and heritage enthusiasts. It offers a convenient way to access biographies of prominent figures within the sect, facilitating research and discovery.
The application presents the book in three formats:
- A text-based format closely mirroring the original publication.
- A digital replica of the printed book.
- A unique feature: a digital image of the author's handwritten manuscript. This allows users to verify potentially erroneous transcriptions, a crucial element given the lack of thorough proofreading in many past editions.
This user-friendly application offers several key advantages:
- Independent access to each of the three book formats.
- Comprehensive search functionality (basic and advanced) across the entire work or specific sections.
- Text copying and sharing capabilities.
- Printing options for all three formats.
- Simultaneous viewing of the text and printed versions, with adjustable zoom and linked page navigation.
- Indices of translators (both individual volumes and the entire collection), with integrated search.
- Bookmarking functionality for all three formats.
- Annotation and commenting features for each format.
In closing, we express our sincere gratitude to all those who contributed to this project: Sheikh Agha Buzurk al-Tharani (may Allah have mercy on him), for his invaluable typesetting, transcription, and printing efforts; those who preserved the handwritten manuscript; and the dedicated team who developed this application. May Allah reward them all abundantly.
