DIBAJA Cain baras keqanb guzre, ki is kitab ke 128 safhe mutafarriq matbu ho chuke, par kai sababon se, jin ka bayan zardr nahm hai, is ki takaiil men qadre ta~ waqquf hua. Safha i mundarja i zail par mulahiza karne se wazih hoga, ki is kitab ke likhne se yih garaz na thi, ki awamm-un-nas men taqsim kijae, warna khatt i Ang- rezi men hargiz matbu na hoti; aur na is tasnif ka yih mansha tha, ki un sabhon ke kam ae jo khatt i Angre- zi se waqif bain, is wajh se, ki is men aksar maqamat Arabi aur Sanskrit menkhaltmalt hain. Musannif no is ko khass karke Hindustani waizon ke faide ke liye tasnif kiya. Is kitab ka madda aksar waizon ko dast- yab na ho sakta tha, kyunki jin kitabon men yih as- nad muntashar pae jate hain, wuh aksar kasir ul hajm aur qimatihain; lihaza musannif ne is ummed par, ki hamare Hindustani rafiq in baton se, jo ba sad diqqat un ke waste jama ki gai hain, baasani faida aur khushi hasil karenge, is ko tasnif kiya. Is kitab meg aksar mahaware ki galtian milengi, kyunki aksar jaldi aur adim ul fursati men likhi gal. Yih galtian in-sha Allah intibd i sani ke waqt durust ki jaengi. Is mukhtasar tasnif men kai ahbab ne i^nat ki hai, jin ki mihrbani ka musannif mamnun aur mashkur hai.

Seyuiii Yunas Singh musaiinif ka shagird i rashid hai, jis ne Ilm i ilahi ke khulase ki taiyari raen, jo is tasnif ke zail men paya jata hai, madad ki. In ke siwa kai ek tasnifen bhi is men bakar amad hain, chunanchi zat ka bayan afzal i mutaqaddimin, ashraf i mutaakhirin, muhaqqiq i zaman, mudaqqiq i dauriin, fazil laiq i tarif, dhm qabil i tausif, Janab Krishna Mohan Banarji Sahib ki tasnif se muntakliab liai.

Bad is ke tawarikh i mul- ham ki baten, nasi i barguzida par munhasar ki gai hain, aur aur qaunion ko, jis qadr Khuda ke logon se munasabat thi usi qadr un ka isharatan zikr hua hai. Musannif yih ummed rakhta hai, ki Kliuda ke khalis Kalam, aurjo log us ki hidayat men nahin hain, in ke khiyalat ka, jo yahan muqabala kiya gaya hai, us se parhnewalon ko shauq ho, ki us ke Kalam se ziyada mahabbat rakhen, aur jo Kalam akela najat tak da^ nishmand kar sakta hai, us ka kamal Imandari aur sargarmi se bayan kareo.
