=== Books ===
[[File:مجالس عارفان.jpg|frameless|left|]]
* Critical edition and verification of the book ''Sharḥ Fuṣūṣ al-Ḥikam'' by ʿAfīf al-Dīn al-Tilimsānī; this work is the first commentary on ''Fuṣūṣ al-Ḥikam''. Previously, it remained unknown due to the absence of any manuscript copies in Iranian libraries. Following the identification of its manuscripts in [[Turkey]] and their critical collation based on four ancient copies, the book was published for the first time in [[Iran]] and [[Lebanon]].
* Critical edition and verification of the book ''Majālis al-ʿĀrifīn''; this book comprises twenty-two newly discovered sessions delivered by three great mystics of the fifth and sixth centuries AH, namely Abū Saʿīd Abū al-Khayr, Khwāja Yūsuf Hamadānī, and an unidentified mystic. These sessions address gnostic, ethical, and mystical issues. Beyond serving as a reliable source for a better understanding of the personalities of Abū Saʿīd Abū al-Khayr and Khwāja Yūsuf Hamadānī, the book holds significant importance for Persian literature.
* Critical edition and verification of the book ''Fatḥ Miftāḥ al-Ghayb'' by Muḥammad ibn Quṭb al-Dīn al-Aznawī; this work ranks among the most important textbooks on theoretical mysticism from the ninth century AH onward. It was accessible to prominent instructors of mysticism, such as Āqā Mīrzā Hāshim Ashkūrī, who recorded portions of it as marginal notes (taʿlīqah) on the book ''Miṣbāḥ al-Uns''. This work has now been critically edited and verified for the first time.
* Critical edition and verification of the book ''Tabyīn al-Maqāmāt wa Taʿyīn al-Darajāt'' by ʿAlāʾ al-Dawlah al-Simnānī; ʿAlāʾ al-Dawlah authored this book in opposition to the doctrine of waḥdat al-wujūd (Unity of Being) and the conclusion that the stages of spiritual wayfaring culminate in tawḥīd (as stated in Khwāja ʿAbdullāh Anṣārī's ''Manāzil al-Sāʾirīn''). The book discusses one hundred spiritual stations, beginning with "Zajr" (Rebuke) and concluding with "ʿUbūdiyyah" (Servitude). In this work, ʿAlāʾ al-Dawlah al-Simnānī presents an innovative and novel structure for practical mysticism and the stations of spiritual wayfaring.[[File:الخطبة القاصعة.jpg|frameless|right|]]
* Critical edition and verification of ''A Newly Discovered Manuscript of the Ancient Shiʿi Hadith Heritage (al-Khuṭbah al-Qāṣiʿah)''; this sermon, published here in its entirety for the first time, is one of the lengthy sermons delivered by [[Ali ibn Abi Talib|Amīr al-Muʾminīn (peace be upon him)]] during the final days of his noble life. Early [[Shia Islam|Shiʿi]] scholars, including [[Shaykh Kulayni]], [[Shaykh Saduq|Shaykh Ṣadūq]], and [[Abu al-Hasan Muhammad ibn al-Husayn ibn Musa|Sayyid Raḍī]], had access to this text and cited portions of it in ''[[Al-Kafi (book)|al-Kāfī]]'', ''al-Tawḥīd'', and ''[[Nahj al-Balagha (book)|Nahj al-Balāghah]]''. Furthermore, [[Fadl ibn Hasan al-Tabarsi|Shaykh Ṭabarsī]] and [[Ibn Shahr Ashub]] described its contents in their books ''Iʿlām al-Wará'' and ''al-Manāqib''. The last reported account of this sermon's content dates back to [[Sayyid ibn Tawus|Sayyid ibn Ṭāwūs]] in the seventh century AH. Sayyid possessed an ancient copy of the sermon, transcribed in 208 AH, and besides describing the sermon, he quoted sections of it in his book ''al-Yaqīn''. Unfortunately, after Sayyid ibn Ṭāwūs, no narration of this book—other than what these eminent scholars transmitted—has been reported in hadith sources and collections. The manuscript serving as the basis for our work was copied in the seventh century by Ṣadr al-Dīn al-Qūnawī. In terms of content, this sermon encompasses sublime gnostic knowledge along with theological and ethical discussions. It presents significant matters concerning [[Imamate]] and Mahdism, which are rare in their kind.
* Critical edition and verification of the book ''Arbaʿīn Maqāmāt'', attributed to Abū Saʿīd Abū al-Khayr; this book is a concise treatise outlining the forty spiritual stations of the wayfarers.
* Critical edition and verification of the book ''Manāsik al-Ḥajj'' by ʿAbd al-Raḥmān Jāmī; in this work, the juridical opinions of the four Sunni schools of law regarding [[Hajj rituals]] are concisely compiled. In addition to the rulings on Hajj—which Jāmī wrote for his disciples—the book also refers to the etiquettes and inner mysteries of the pilgrimage.
