Presentation of the Report on the Activities of the International Congress Commemorating Allamah Mir Hamid Husayn Lakhnavi to Ayatollah Mohammad Mohammadi Qa’ini (May his glory endure).

In this meeting, which was held with the presence of Hujjat-ul-Islam wal-Muslimeen Mohammad Taghi Sobhani, the president of the congress; Hujjat-ul-Islam wal-Muslimeen Ruhollah Kazemi, the secretary of the congress; Hujjat-ul-Islam wal-Muslimeen Mehdi Esfandiari, the scientific secretary of the congress; and a group of researchers and organizers of the congress, the latest actions performed in the field of reviving the works of Allamah Mir Hamid Husayn and his scholarly family were explained.

At the beginning of this meeting, a report was presented on the process of reviving the valuable “Abaqat al-Anwar” collection. According to this report, the project of editing and reviving this great theological (Kalam) and hadith work, which has been on the secretariat’s agenda for years, has approached its final stages, and its complete set is ready for publication in 37 volumes.

Also, the activities performed for identifying and collecting the sources used by Allamah Mir Hamid Husayn, examining the manuscripts existing in Iran, Iraq, and India, organizing the images of the manuscripts, and forming a database of works related to the family of the author of Abaqat were among other axes of the report presented to Ayatollah Qa’ini.

The congress secretariat further presented a report on its research actions in the field of compiling the bio-bibliography (Shinakht-nameh/شناخت‌نامه) of Allamah Mir Hamid Husayn, extracting research axes, forming scientific files for the congress articles, holding scientific sessions in Iran and abroad, and also compiling works related to the scientific methodology of the author of Abaqat.

In this meeting, a part of the discussions was also dedicated to the status of manuscripts and the written heritage of Shiism in the Indian subcontinent. The members of the secretariat, referring to the valuable capacities of historical libraries in India, raised the existing concerns regarding the preservation and protection of these works.

Ayatollah Mohammadi Qa’ini also, while appreciating the efforts made in the path of reviving the works of Allamah Mir Hamid Husayn, considered these activities as a valuable service to the teachings of the Ahl al-Bayt (peace be upon them) and the scientific heritage of Shiism.

Emphasizing the importance of Imamate topics and the necessity of the presence of learned researchers in this arena, he stressed the training of capable scientific forces to continue this path and utilizing the scientific capacities of Islamic seminaries (Hawzas) in reviving the doctrinal heritage of Shiism.

Ayatollah Qa’ini also, pointing to the importance of preserving the works and manuscripts of Shiism, counted the protection of this valuable heritage as among the serious needs of the Shiite world and wished divine success and confirmation for the organizers of the International Congress Commemorating Allamah Mir Hamid Husayn Lakhnavi.

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.”
Manuscript Repository

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.
