Abstract
left by the Shiite theologian Sharīf Murtaza Alam al-Hudā, the collection of his treatises is a precious treasure of Imami knowledge which is considered to be of great importance. His treatises are difficult to understand, and correcting them is not that simple to do. Not only did Alam al-Hudā use a complicated and technical language in his writing, but also an authentic old version of many of his works is not available; hence, correcting his heritage including his treatises has confronted a serious problem. The
author of the present paper is going to review Sharīf Murtaza’s treatises in terms of quality and the accuracy
of the correction. As an instance, he is going to write a review on an edition of the treatise Javābāt
al-Masāel al-Tirāblesiāt as-Sānia. This treatise was corrected by Seyyed Mahdi Rajāie and published as
a part of the first volume of Sharīf Murtazā’s Treatises from page 307 to page 356. Among the various versions of Tirāblesiāt as-Sānia, the author has chosen the best seven available versions and compared them with the published text, then he pointed out the shortcomings such as the omissions, the redundant words and phrases, as well as false readings or recordings along with some examples from the published text.
