Notes: At the end of the book it says, “And let this be the end of the first part of this noble explanation, and we ask Him in whose hand is the kingdom of all things to facilitate the completion of the other.” Perhaps the author did not complete this explanation. Fawzi Abd al-Razzaq (Lithographs in Morocco, p. 51) did not see a copy of the book, but referred it to Ibn al-Mahi al-Idrisi (Dictionary of Moroccan Publications, pp. 303-304), in which The Hidden Universe was issued by Al-Dhuwaib Press in two parts: the first in 1318 AH/1900 AD in 179 pages and the second in 1319 AH/1901. M in 178 pages (= 357 pages in the total of the two parts), while Latifa Al-Kanduz mentions that it in only 28 pages in the total (Moroccan Publications, p. 182, record 468). A modern edition of the book was published under the care of Muhammad Hamza al-Kattani (Dar al-Kutub al-Ilmiyyah, 2009, 512 pages). It is noteworthy that Abd al-Salam al-Dhuwaib established his printing press under the guidance of his sheikh, the author of this commentary, and with it the works of the Kattanians and Maa al-Aynayn were printed (compare: Muhammad al-Manouni, Manifestations of the Awakening of Modern Morocco, vol. 1, pp. 290-291; Fawzi Abd al-Razzaq, Lithographies in Morocco, p. 14).
