Notes
The work, a verse dictionary of Persian comprised of 35 qiṭ‘as in 550 bayts in a variety of metres, was composed in imitation of the works of the poets Badr al-Dīn al-Farāhī and Husam al-Dīn al-Khūyī ‏حسام الدين خوئى، حسن بن عبد المؤمن‏according to the introduction. The author in his introduction expresses the hope that it will become widely read like Husam al-Dīn al-Khūyī ‏حسام الدين خوئى، حسن بن عبد المؤمن‏’s work the Niṣāb al-Ṣibyān wa Naṣīb al-Fityān.
