In this book, we have ensured awareness by writing the pronunciation of every word passing through the document beneath it. We provided information about what the document is and its type. We also included the transcribed text separately. We also provided a summary showing what is narrated in the document separately for easier access. The provision of the words appearing in the document and their modern equivalents has been extremely important as well. Because word study is the most important element that will decode the cultural codes carried by the document. In addition, we have conducted a distinctive study on the faded texts of the document to ensure a clear understanding of the typeface and letters.

Anyone who reads the documents in this work will easily be able to read equivalent documents. Of course, they will encounter new situations, but the self-confidence they have gained will at least be a reason for them to act comfortably and gain courage in new studies.

We hope and pray that this work, which has the characteristic of being a key/guide in document reading, will be beneficial to every individual and also serve as a means of breaking the perception of it being ‘difficult’.
