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.

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.
