About the sources: how we read a book

What is not cut by ayah, hadith, mas’ala or event is read here whole. The library’s design is being redone soon.

Everything here is our own work: we wrote its tools, checked its results and reviewed it round after round. Nothing in it runs by itself; whatever mistake you find, tell us with the «report a mistake» flag.
