The site’s Arabic edition follows Warsh ʿan Nāfiʿ; the reference text quoted here and the matcher behind the Fī Riyāḍ loci are Ḥafṣ ʿan ʿĀṣim. Content is nearly identical, but verse-boundary numbering diverges in a handful of places. Each locus carries its own witness’s numbering. Page references follow the ten-volume Tunis 2022 printing this site was transcribed from; published scholarship on this text cites the six-volume Tunis 2010 printing, whose pagination is different.
Sustained interpretation of the verse as a verse — lemma, gloss, expansion.

إذاً العالم هو الذي مال إلى الدنيا فهذا هو المذموم، أو يكون السلطان هو الطالب للعالم يريد منه الهداية والخير، هذا غير مذموم ولا ضرر فيه. فلهذا ورد شر العلماء من يأتي السلاطين وخير السلاطين من يأتي للعلماء «تَمَسَّكُمُ النَّار)(وَمَا لَكُم مِن دُونِ ٱللَّهِ)
Read in context →Entries are grouped by what Shaykh Ibrāhīm is doing with the verse, then ordered oldest first inside each group, so the same words can be seen carrying different work across a career. Every entry names the witness it comes from and how well attested the attribution is. Loci that are known but not yet available are listed rather than hidden.
