The first question that may occur to the reader as to the reason the author (of the present book) has undertaken writing a commemorative volume about the perfect Gnostic  the pious servant  and the reverend "Shaykh Rajab Ali Khayyat"-particularly if the reader has been one of his disciples  would probably be: Why has a writer  who has never met with the Shaykh and whose field of work and research is not writing commemorative biographies  made such an attempt like this?
