| ## The texts |
|
|
| Every work in this corpus is **public domain**. The gate is the author's death |
| year, taken from the canonical work identifier: a work is admitted only if its |
| author died by **1350 AH (1931 CE)**, which clears life-plus-seventy in every |
| jurisdiction. The latest author present is صالح بن محمد اللحيدان (d. |
| 1350 AH / 1931 CE). Works whose |
| authors died later were not included by reference either — they were simply |
| left out. |

|
| Distribution of works by the author's Hijri century: 0c: 7, 1c: 58, 2c: 61, 3c: 324, 4c: 389, 5c: 379, 6c: 358, 7c: 359, 8c: 672, 9c: 360, 10c: 352, 11c: 157, 12c: 110, 13c: 249, 14c: 187. |

|
| ## The transcriptions |
|
|
| The texts reached us as machine-readable files from the **Open Islamicate Texts |
| Initiative**, release 2025.1.9, which is licensed **CC BY-NC-SA 4.0**. That |
| licence travels with the data: reuse of this dataset must remain |
| **non-commercial**, must **preserve attribution**, and must be shared under |
| **the same licence**. This is the binding term for the dataset as a whole, and |
| it is stricter than the public-domain status of the underlying works. |
|
|
| Printed editions, where the source records one, are named per work in the |
| `edition` column of the `works` config rather than repeated here. |
|
|
| ## Removal |
|
|
| A removal-on-request statement is not treated as permission to redistribute a |
| copyrighted full text, and nothing here relies on one. If you nevertheless hold |
| rights to something in this corpus, open a discussion on the **Community** tab |
| and it will be removed promptly and without argument. |
