This digital application provides swift access to the scholarly works and biographies of prominent figures within a specific religious sect.

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

Technological advancements have become indispensable in modern life. To maintain relevance in a globalized world and preserve its rich scholarly heritage, this application makes this important collection accessible to a wider audience. The Heritage Revival Center at the al-Abbas's shrines houses a significant collection of works that, despite individual efforts in past centuries, has lacked comprehensive publication. This application addresses this gap.

This application presents this valuable resource in a user-friendly digital format, catering to both specialists and those interested in religious history. It aims to facilitate research and provide easy access to information about the sect's scholars and their contributions.

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 original manuscript. This allows users to verify any suspected typographical errors, as many previously published versions lack thorough proofreading.

This application, despite its simplicity, offers several key advantages for researchers:

1. Separate access to each book version.
2. Comprehensive search functionality (basic and advanced search).
3. Text copying and sharing capabilities.
4. Printing options for all three formats.
5. Simultaneous viewing of text and printed versions, with adjustable zoom and page synchronization.
6. Indexes of translators (both per volume and for the entire collection), searchable within the application.
7. Ability to add pages to favorites (across all three formats).
8. Note-taking functionality for each page and format.

In closing, we express our gratitude to all who contributed to this project, including the meticulous work of Sheikh Agha Buzurk al-Tharani (may Allah have mercy on his soul) for his typesetting, editing, and printing efforts; those who preserved and shared the manuscript copy; and the team who developed this application. May Allah reward them all abundantly.
