A praise for which there is no limit to its boundary, no calculation for its number, no reaching its goal, and no cessation to its duration. A praise that shall be a connection to His obedience and His pardon, a cause for His pleasure, a means to His forgiveness, a path to His Paradise, a protector from His vengeance, a security from His wrath, a support for His obedience, a barrier against His disobedience, and an aid in fulfilling His right and His duties.

A praise by which we may be felicitous among the felicitous of His friends, and by which we may become within the ranks of the martyrs by the swords of His enemies; indeed, He is a Protecting Patron, Praiseworthy."

Our tongue falters from praising Him, Glory be to Him, for granting us success in this great favor and noble ink, that we may be permanent servants in His love and diligent in His obedience; and we ask Him for steadfastness and empowerment.

In this book, we have compared it against three handwritten manuscripts, and it has become apparent to us that there are slight variations between those copies, especially regarding certain wordings of the narrations; thus, we proceeded to establish them in the footnotes for scientific integrity.
