In this project, time will inshaALLAH be allocated and spent to prepare indexes for important books or books suggested by viewers of this blog. The books can be related to The Qur'an, Arabic Dictionaries, Arabic Grammar Works, Arabic Studies, Seerah Works, Hadith Books etc. InshaALLAH!, the index will then be integrated into a quick study tool and / or also released in spreadsheet format for use by others.
The index can be made based on Aayaat of The Qur'an, roots of a dictionary, Hadith numbers, years of life for biographies, topics, notes, categories etc.
Books can be suggested via email to asimiqbal2nd @ live.com and depending on the importance of the book, I may start slowly allocating time on indexing or ask the person to clarify whether he is willing to sponsor the indexing if the book is not chosen to be given immediate priority by me. The one emailing and suggesting the book can also volunteer to prepare the index, but index checking will inshaALLAH! be done by me myself.
The index will inshaALLAH be prepared by me and then rechecked by me. About 50 to 80% of the time spent by me on this will be allowed to be sponsored by a sponsor @ $10 per hour, which will inshaALLAH be mentioned in this post with brief details of the indexing for the book like manpower names, sponsors (who may keep themselves anonymous and then some code word like sponsor02 etc. may be used instead), time spent on indexing to the minutes, voluntarily spent time, time allowing sponsorship, etc.
Method of sponsoring / Funding:
Direct IBAN transfer, or via Google Pay or Apple Pay, or transfer via Ria, Western Union or MoneyGram, but other methods can also be explored via Email. IBAN and other required details can be provided to interested sponsors, after some discussion with the sponsor for some days or weeks. Email :asimiqbal2nd @ live.com

Another book that may be linked up for the relevant roots actually used in The Quran for Quran Roots Linker PDF is the ~8890 page important Arabic book تهذيب اللغة , but some positive signals are required from potential sponsors before taking on this massive book, as the indexing is complex due to unorthodox arrangement of roots in the book, but I have done a bigger book already i.e. تاج العروس and integrated it in the 2019 edition, a few years ago.
