 Biography of Allamah Mir Hamid Husayn

The Great Mujahid Allamah Sayyid Mir Hamid Husayn (born 1830, died 1888) was among the greatest Imami theologians. He is the author of the invaluable «عبقات الانوار فی مناقب ائمه الاطهار» and «استقصاء الإفحام». He rendered monumental services to the defense of Shiism and was highly praised by scholars such as Allamah Amini and the author of «الذریعة».

 Anecdote of the Rare Manuscript

It is narrated that the Allamah discovered a manuscript needed to refute the «تحفه اثنی عشریه» (by Shah Abd al-Aziz Dehlavi) held by a scholar in the village of Rabouq (between Mecca and Medina). After his Hajj pilgrimage, the Allamah traveled there, staying with the scholar under the guise of a traveler. Through immense patience and dedication, he copied the entire manuscript by night. Upon receiving the news of this, the scholar in Rabouq was astonished by the Allamah’s determination and succumbed to grief over the loss of the manuscript’s exclusivity.

The Splendor of the Lucknow School in the Indian Travelogue of the Author of *al-Ghadir

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.
Notes

Article: A Critique and Review of the Critical Edition of “Hadith Ali ma‘a al-Haqq” from Abaqat al-Anwar: Critical Editing and Research, or Corruption and Distortion?

“Hadith Ali ma‘a al-Haqq,” from the Abaqat al-Anwar encyclopedia, is an incomplete manuscript section that became available to researchers in recent years. This section consists of a collection of unorganized research slips and rough notes, most of which were written by copyists unfamiliar with the relevant vocabulary and terminology; consequently, what has survived is a disordered text containing numerous errors. Recently, a portion of these notes that possesses greater order and continuity was selected by an institute in Qom and published with grand claims of “critical editing, research, and annotation” and described as “a rarely matched scholarly investigation.”

The Researcher’s Introduction to the Revival of the Qur’anic Verses Section of Abaqat al-Anwar

The present volume is a researched and critically edited edition of this monumental work. In preparing this edition, every effort has been made, as far as possible, to exercise the degree of precision, patience, and diligence befitting the critical editing and study of an exceptional work such as Abaqat al-Anwar, and to honor the efforts of the devoted scholar Allamah Mir Hamed Hussain Lakhnawi in compiling this book by presenting a sound and critically established text. Accordingly, an effort has been made to produce a final text so thoroughly refined, corrected, and critically examined that the reader of Abaqat al-Anwar will perceive no difference in editorial quality between its First Manhaj, whose two extant copies are manuscripts, and its Second Manhaj, whose surviving copies are printed and well preserved.
