3. as Nir Saad al Saaoud or Lucida Fortunæ Fortunarum (the brightest of luck of lucks) and as Thanih Saad al Saaoud or Secunda Fortunæ Fortunarum (the second of luck of lucks). should be Thalath Fortunæ Fortunarum or Tertia Fortunæ Fortunarum (the third of luck of lucks) consistently, but Al Achsasi Al Mouakket was not designated the title for this star with uncleared consideration. Possibly according to the differences of opinion with R.H.Allen
4. Consisting with γ Aqr (Sadachbia), π Aqr (Seat), ζ Aqr (Sadaltager / Achr al Achbiya) and η Aqr (Hydria), were al Aḣbiyah, the Tent. See Star Name – R.H.Allen p. 52
