The primary objective of this historic journey was to gain access to early, first-hand sources from both sides and to transcribe rare documents for the completion of the volumes of *al-Ghadir* and the enrichment of the Amir al-Mu’minin Library in Najaf. The highlight of the journey was his month-long stay in Lucknow, the warm hospitality and companionship of the Abaqat family, and the indescribable amazement of the author of *al-Ghadir* at the unparalleled holdings of the Nasiriyya Library—an event that immortalized the bond between two major centers devoted to defending the doctrine of Imamate in Najaf al-Ashraf and Lucknow.
During a meeting between the president and members of the Secretariat of the International Congress Commemorating Allamah Mir Hamed Hussain and Ayatollah Abolqasem Alidoost, a report was presented on the progress of reviving 70 volumes of the heritage of the Lucknow scholarly school, preserving the documents of the Nasiriyya Library, and extracting the theological methodology of the author of Abaqat al-Anwar. The distinguished professor of the Qom Seminary also referred to the enduring impact of text-centered conferences and emphasized the systematic analysis of the manner in which Allamah interacted with the hadith heritage, the observance of proper etiquette in criticism, and the avoidance of non-academic disputes in the contemporary context.
Continuing the scholarly and cultural efforts to translate and republish the enduring heritage of Allamah Mīr Ḥāmid Ḥusayn Lucknawī in the Indian subcontinent, the sixth volume of the “Nūr al-Anwār; Translation of ʿAbaqāt al-Anwār” collection, in Urdu and focusing on “Hadith al-Manzilah,” has been published.
Members of the secretariat of the International Congress Commemorating Allamah Mir Hamid Husayn Lakhnavi, by attending the residence of Ayatollah Mohammad-Mahdi Qa’ini, presented a report on the process of holding the congress and the scientific and research activities performed in this complex.
